Cheap compressor , Not going to work.

Far from hopeless, many of us use the yong heng with great results. If you want to spend more of course theres better options but mine is well past the break even point and great value for money.

Glem, how long have you had your yong heng and any troubles with it? im thinking about getting one

Ive had it about a year and only blew a burst disc which was my own fault. Got one of those gold colored filters and filled with 13x molecular sieve and keeps the air nice and dry almost 25 fills of my 88cuft tank when it dies i can get parts on ebay or just buy another. Buy the real one with the label on the side of the unit, not the unbranded IMO
 
Hubertus and Cherokee140, thank you both for the maintenance information. Cherokee140, from your post I got a good grasp why you like the YH and how well it serves its purpose. Your post is almost like a review and placed things in perspective well. I am not sure about your second post with the frontal attack on someone else opinion. Some get the message/hint if worded in a more diplomatic way where it does not distract from the topic at hand and your otherwise well-explained constructive input. But that's just my opinion.

And that is all cool. These are my observations not opinion....and I am very open to people that challenge them. I will say what I think and others are free to say what they think, this is the way the world should work, so much touchy feelie stuff going around people need thicker skins....if they existed we would not have many of the issues that exist today. But it is so much more easy to censor someone you don't agree with or don't like their style, this is the way so many want things to go...freedom of speech is just fine as long as you don't offend anyone. Well guess what children the world is offensive....and all this garbage you impost on people is not going to change it. I am so glad I am on the down hill in life as this is really going to be a mess for the 20 somethings that have a brain in their head.



Points I brought up are IMHO valid, when looking at anything you need to look at who is saying it and their body of work.....it tells you about that specific "reviewer". Some I respect and think they are going to give me what they really think of a given product (like the slingshot guy on this compressor) others are not going to give a product an unbiased review because of their on feelings on a product.....like the OP here, no experience but he sure has his feelings on the product. Or other reviewers (Ted, others and Gauntlet)...they want it to be bad so they do everything they can to make it bad. And I see that kind of review as a "full on frontal attack" as well, and I will not demand their reviews be taken down, just the reverse they should stay up, so everyone can know just how this person stands....you see true colors in actions like this. And yes in every post of mine you see my true colors.



We can disagree all day long I can say how your did this or that, call a review or action childish or stupid....whatever but that is not saying YOU are stupid or childish. Saying someone is uninformed or ignorant is not personal, you are ignorant on what we are talking about here it is not personal, however some little flowers that cry at policy changes think it is.



I will leave you at this....you said "I am not sure about your second post with the frontal attack on someone else opinion..." so you are saying I should not challenge others opinion, or I should challenge it in a more "diplomatic" or touchy feelie way.

I am not diplomatic, I will cut to the point, and if that is too rough for some people so be it.

I do however try to never attack the person only their ideas.
