Ryobi 6 gallon Compressor & 3 Air Nailer Combo Kit - $149!!

[woodstockva]

Hey everybody -

Normally I would have just posted this as a regular review on the tool thread....BUT these are going to be selling out very soon & if you want one, I am sure supplies are very limited (leftover Christmas stock). Most stores are sold out, but you can still order them and have them shipped to your store for free.

The entire kit is just $149......keep in mind that the compressor by itself with nothing extra is $200.

It includes :

6 gallon vertical pancake compressor
25' air hose w/couplers
(500) nails & staples for each gun
16ga finish nailer
18ga brad nailer
18ga crown stapler

The tools & the compressor have 3 year warranties!

Anyway, I did an overview & some runtime testing on each part (compressor & each nailer), so you can see what you are getting.

If you are in the market for a small compressor OR the nailers, check this out.

Thanks for the post.

This is actually my first time posting on the site after lurking for quite some time...

Anyone else have any input on this kit?

I'm the market for a compressor/nailers as I'm re-doing a few rooms in the house and will need to do plenty of crown/base/chair rail moulding as well as some framing.

Just want to know overall quality of the kit from those who might have experience with it and whether or not I'd be better off buying a better compressor with individual nailers as I go.

Thanks!!

i could use the 3 nailers without the compressor for when i do little jobs around the house or for people.

How usable would this compressor be for other duties? Safe to say it'd fill tires with ease but what about operating a media blaster for short bursts? A routine maintenance for one of my vehicles is the de-carbonization of the intake ports, using a media blaster and specially graded walnut shells. I have a much larger 60g compressor that requires 230VAC, which I don't presently have in the garage. If this little thing could run a blaster for 20-30 second bursts, it'd move my maintenance up and save me a bit of fuss rushing to get the garage wired.

I normally avoid Ryobi, but would jump on this if I didn't already have a small compressor and trim nailers. I really like the compressor being vertical. It would make carrying it much easier.

Thanks, I've been looking for a small compressor forever. Now I just need to find a place to sell the nailers.

not to be the voice of reason, but how much of the garage getting wired would the $150 cover?

how usable... not very. CFM flow is not enough to be very useful on a media blaster in any capacity. Something this small is good for short bursts - problem is once the tank drops to kick on the compressor you have to wait for it to recover to have useful flow, and remember duty cycle. you might get it done but would take much longer than using the right size compressor.

MYK has a valid point - we ran a 220v circuit from my fathers panel the length of the house to the garage for his tig for under $75 in armoured 10-3 wire.

The porter cable 6 gallon compressor is still $99 at Home Depot.
