Title: Worked Once
Review: I purchased this for light duty use after my previous model (NOT Hitachi)finally gave up after more than 20 years of use.I was able to blow up 4 tires to 40lbs once. The next time I went to use it, It ran for a few seconds and then started to smell of burning plastics. It appears the stator burned out.So far Hitachi has not responded, and a little research shows the stator is a $135 part (I paid $99 for the compressor).So I have a large paperweight.I've purchased several Hitachi tools, some are quite good. But there's lots of good brands out there, and if Hitachi (or Amazon) won't stand behind a clearly defective product, they won't be seeing any more of my money.It's sad that the concept of customer service has little meaning, and making excuses is the order of the day.I am thoroughly disappointed with this purchase.
