I use the next model up (yellow top, moisture trap and regulator). It's OK, not amazing but it does the job. Noisy though... the compressor run all the time, the tank has a preaure blead when it's full. I think I paid quite a bit less for mine though, I think about110 quid all in.

Re: Ripmax compressor

If you could afford a bit more this one is better:
Iwata Sprint Jet
Again very quiet running, but more economical, features a moisture filter, regulator, 1/8 oil less piston motor. Working pressure 1 – 30 PSI, with no pulsing.

I'll have to take a look at my budget but thanks for the advice. I want to make sure I get the right compressor.

I'm only 6 weeks back into this hobby and I must have spent at least £250 already and haven't even finished a kit yet!

Enjoying myself though!
