    At 28 lb it seems quite heavy but it seems to be the best on the market. If I had to do it over, Id buy the aluminum version as that one weighs only 13 lb. I was not impressed with the attached air hose or ball foot air chuck on the end so I threw it away and replaced it with a 6ft piece of 1/4 Flexzilla hose with the replaceable fittings and a higher quality air chuck.

    Not happy with the finish of the product. 2 dents on the tank, a few scratches, and the end of the tank was clearly resprayed with what looks like a rattle can spray paint. I will be looking to have the item replaced.

    This tank had leaks at 3 locations. I sealed all but the main one at the tank outlet. They need to some work this. I returned the tank to Amazon. California customer service was very easy to deal with, and they said they switched the lock tight supplier, but that is where the good customer support ends. I will order another one, and we shall see. Some of the leaks were really small, as I did the checks in a water tank to identify them...To add to the list very poor customer support. I asked for a replacement for a leaking fitting, and was told to fill out a form on their website. I did that, and heard nothing from them. I wont buy again. I was going to buy a compressor, but with lax support I will not.. After a few more weeks I find another issue. Another leak where the hose is crimped to the fitting. Everything leaks on the tank. So if you order one throw all the fittings away, and get some good ones, as these are junk. One more thing to add. Notice that the seller never responds.

    I bought this product for the aluminum tank alone, knowing that the air intake and exhaust valve system was inferior and would have to be replaced. Otherwise very good.

    Lightweight and holds air with no leaks, so far. The brass fitting are junk, though. Do yourself a favor and buy fittings the shops use- Milton.

    Buy this model for only a little more. You wont be disappointed. I particularly like the shut off to the hose., and the incoming air has a coupler .

    The tank is very light and seems to be well constructed, but almost all of the fittings leaked (all but 1 of the 6). I spent more time than I would have liked trying to fix all of the leaks. Not a major issue, but all fittings should be checked before the tank is used. Also, the gage is placed in location where it runs into one side of the tee. Your best bet is to reconfigure the fittings/gage so there is limited interference. Because of the interference, the first tank I received had a smashed gage. The packing of the tank in the box was poor at best. If anything of weight was placed on the top of the box, the gage is likely to break. Was able to send the tank with the smashed gage back with no issue. New tank arrived in a couple of days.

    I bought the aluminum version. Its a nice tank, but the fittings are cheap. Why scrimp there?

    The California Air Tools 10 gal tank is a handy tool to have on hand, but the other reviews describing the fitting as cheap are correct. I ordered the 5 gal tank, filled it with 100 lbs of air, it leaked down to about 70 lbs over night. Couldnt find the leak. I returned it , and ordered the 10 gal tank. When the 10 gal tank arrived, I discovered that it had been purchased and returned by a previous customer. The tank had air in it and had some scuff marks on the bottom of the tank. Im a bit disappointed in Amazon for pulling that sort of transaction. But, the 10 gal tank is much like the 5 gal tank, has cheap fittings. I put 100 lbs of air in it and it leaked down about 5 lbs within 2 or 3 hours. I soap tested it for leaks, but could not find any I cant tell why it is losing air pressure. I will keep it and replace the fitting if it becomes a real problem. Just be prepared to fill the tank before you use it, I dont know how long air will remain in the tank over a long period of time.. I did buy the aluminum tank, it is light, and well built. It should last a long time. I do plan to up grade the fittings later.
