I originally bought this product about 4 years ago and I just finished go through a 2nd one. The first one I bought stopped working when my friend borrowed it and he kindly bought me another one. But, this second one stopped working on the sametime as the first one. I don't know what caused this. I use it occasionally and it was great and fast, but I have to look for another one now!Update 10/22/12- I was on the second one after my first one did not work and my friend got me another one. However, this second one just died this year. So, I had one from my original purchase in 2008 and then this second one from 2010 to this year. I am definitely not happy with the quality control of Black & Decker air compressor.
