Ive got a ABAC 150 litre 3 hp single phase conpressor which I have used for 28 years 5 years full time workshop and 23 Home diy.
I have had to have the motor repaired once but otherwise good as gold
The only thing is it's very noisey If you are buying a new one i would ask to hear it running
Cheers Tim.

I have a 250ltr 3.5hp one and its been fault free since new, we bit loud but as said cant fault it, and was at the right price when new, cheaper than the rest when priced so was a no brainer.
