Let us know how you like it when you get it. According to the description, it doesn't even come with all the fittings seen in the pic.

I have it and I'm happy with it. Super easy to install.

It does not include the air couplers as you state, but there's different types so you want whatever you use (Milton V, I/M, etc).

I bought one a month ago. I thought it was easy to install. No leaks. Paper work with the kit says not to use Teflon tape but the web site says to use it. I planned on using it. I always use it. The kit doesn't come with any T fittings. I had to make up one. Ordering just one from some where is a pain. Shipping is more then the part so if you think you might need one order one with the kit.

I can't remember the brand name but it was from a prior Rapidair thread, Granger sells high quality fittings for use with this type of tubing. I bought the HF kit with a 25% off coupon and used only the fittings I had ordered from Granger. I worked great and I didn't have any leaks.

I will post when I have it up. I'm not planning on actually starting till the new year. I figured this system will do me fine as I'm not a heavy user. The reason I'm doing this is to supply my Bendpak four post lift with some air so I don't have to run a line on the ground everytime I wish to use it.

Is this that the normal price?
Here it is a Home Depot for the same:

Come to think of it, I seem to recall seeing the discrepancy about teflon tape... I used the tape, no issues yet (been in use maybe 6 months to a year?)

I think "normal" price is more like $100. I've seen it on sale as low as $69.99, and I think I paid $85 for mine when I got it.

I ordered this from Home Depot yesterday along with some extra straight, angle and T fittings. I ordered 10 of each fitting, figured I would rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it and just return any unused fittings. Northern Tool had this for $69.99 until sometime last week but with shipping it would have been as much as buying it from HD and the sale was already over by the time I actually got off my *** and ordered it.

Got my tracking number from HD today, will be here next Friday and since I have that weekend off it will be installed at that time, hopefully. I'll be using this kit to run air from my compressor that is now outside in my shed to my garage where it will spit to the HF retractable air hose I am getting tomorrow and to a second outlet outside the garage. I'll take some pictures and write a short review after everything is set.

Looks like the SMC stuff. Could probably piece it together.
