Although a Lot of Machine Mart stuff is poor (don't touch their machine tools or very cheap welders) I too bought a small compressor from them, put it in the roof of the garage thirty years ago and its still functioning - though its use has been light. In the past I've also used lots of their 2 and 3 h.p. single-phase motors on lathe conversions; again, no problems, but only ever used for occasional work, not 12-hour shifts on bonus turning billets of stainless steel.
