The compressor I love... The nail gun not so much.

I love the compressor. It is very light, but has plenty of power to fire an 18 gauge nail gun or smaller, but I would not go bigger for long term use. The recharge time is kind of long, but it has not once stopped me from nailing on a run of baseboard or crown using 2" nails. I bought this compressor for doing room to room punch list items at work, where bigger compressors are just over kill. It is now my everyday compressor, replacing a Porter Cable Pancake. I have had this compressor for around 2 years now, and it is still going strong.

The nail gun I didn't like very much because of its safety. At certain angles the safety would not allow the gun to fire. This became a problem for me, because sometimes you could only shoot at those angles. It seemed like a design flaw to me. I used the gun for about a year, then I ended up getting a Milwaukee 7150-21 . The Milwaukee is a much better gun, but it still has its downfalls.

Overall I liked the combo kit, and the compressor made up for what the nail gun was lacking.

Pros
Compressor is light, and has enough power.
Cons
The nail gun will not fire at certain angles.
