Default What does anybody think of a Harbor Freight air compressor?

I bought this air compressor on the Richland washington store. It had a special sign on it for $100.00 ! I bit and bought it. I plugged it in and tried it. It would not work. I tried and tried and finally it came on. Then it froze up. That has been a year ago. I dug out my receipt to take it back. BUT, the receipt said "AS IS "! Nothing about that before I bought it. Not a thing on the sign outside. Am thinking Harbor Freight is not on the up and up ?

I'm thinking you were asleep at the switch. When the price sounds
too good to be true, it usually is. Deep discounts from their already
"discount" prices are almost always "as is".
