i've had this compressor for 3 years. it froze up about a month after i purchased it, repair facility was fast, and put a new motor on swiftly.
it will not work in cold weather. it's an ordeal trying to get it to cycle in weather less than 40deg.
i think the problem is the motor, I say this because a shopmate bought a rigid mini wheel barrow compressor that has a visually identical compressor motor on it, and it doesn't work well in cold weather either. My shop is not heated, so on cold days we have a contest to see who can get their compressor running first. that's when we're in a good mood, often when you are working on a cabinet or somesuch, you hear the motor click on but not cycle and you curse under your breath because it's a pain in the butt.
as i speak it has an audible leak in it's regulator somewhere. it ruptured the hose from the regulator to the shutoff valve once before, it was loud and happened in a clients home.
so, after three years of consistent use it's still going, but not without a lot of help along the way.
if i could i'd look for a model with a completely different motor assembly.
and if i had my $250 back.

I've had this compressor for about 6 months, but only recently have been able to test it with some projects.
I really like it a lot. It builds up pressure quickly, and powers my air tools without any problem. I don't lose any performance when I run it under 90PSI and it needs to kick in again. It's not really all that noisy unless you're right next to it, and you can easily hold a conversation while it's running in the same area.
I haven't had any problems with it at all, and am looking forward to many years of service from this tool.

The motor on my compressor consistently sticks, even when connected to a 20 amp wall circuit. I have taken the compressor in for service, but the problems persist. Generally, I like Bostitch tools, but they really missed the mark with this one.
A good compressor if you take care about it October 20, 2006

Almost any oil labricated compressor will last longer than air cooled compressor. Use synthetic oil and avoid overloading the compressor during severe weather and the compressor should last for a long time. Be sure to check the oil from time to time and replace when necessary.

Had this unit 1 month and the motor locked up, took Bostitch repair center 3 weeks to fix, told me it was a common problem they were seeing with this unit. I wish I bought the Makita instead.
***6 month update---broke again, this time I am getting it fixed and selling it...and buying the Makita...I have 4 Bostitch nailers and like them..VERY dissapointed in Bostitch on this one, Bostitch customer service has been no help.
