- Great, most of the time.
- I am a roofer and I am constantly running two roofing nailers off my compressor. This compressor is great for the fact that it can keep up with two proffesional roofers all day long. It seems to drink the oil and has a hard time getting started on really cold days. Emglo needs to come up with a better idea for the air filter, it's cheap plastic that breaks and comes off every time it is slightly bumped. I've had to replace the air filter on mine three times now. Other than that I run my compressor all day long with no major mechanical problems.

- AM700 vs AM780 and M790
- Upon inspection the AM700 is clearly a consumer model compressor. The price is very good but I wouldn't expect the run time that we see with the am78 pump assemblies used on the AM780 and the M790's. The 700 has a visibly less expensive cylinder and motor assembly. It also requires more oil than the am78 pump, not to mention the cheezy air filter. I wouldn't expect this unit to survive on the construction site as the 780's and 790's have in the past years. Although as a consumer model I believe this unit is far superior to an oiless compressor.
I will give Emglo credit for finally packaging oil with their hand carry units.
Thanks, Ed Smith
