 Good tank February 5, 2009

I bought this Wilmar 5 gallon tank even though the other reviewers complained about the hose. I intended to immediately remove it, anyway, and install a quick-disconnect, such as I have on my air compressor. I did so, and it works fine.
The tank didn't hold air (100psi)the first night I had it. The next morning I found that it had a loose valve core, which is just like the type one finds in auto tire valve stems.(This is the point at which one fills the tank with a tire-type air-filler attachment.) I had a valve core wrench, so didn't have to buy one, and tightened it. So much for the leak. Holds air fine, now.
So, I spent $30.16 for the tank (free shipping), installed a QD that I had on-hand, but maybe costs $5.00, and tightened the valve core (wrench costs maybe $1.50). $6.50 is still less than what shipping would have been.
So, not a bad investment for a set-up that works, and that I like and use.
(see my two photos above under "customer-provided photos." [words to that effect]).

I received mine yesterday and looked for instructions which seem to be on the box. I filled it up from my DeWalt compressor - matching color. The valve screw seems to work fine to turn off on the inlet and outlet. Overnight, it dropped from 120# to about 115, but no big deal. Would be nice to have a screw coupler on the hose, but I didn't expect it. So, mine works pretty much as expected and better than some of the reviews here. Packaging is iffy, so if theirs got bumped that might explain some problems.

The tank works like it should except for the pressure gauge. It sticks constantly. I expected more even though it was not expensive.
