Wolf Dakota compressor... any good ??

[badersbus]

Hi All. After a new compressor , and wanted to know what the thoughts are on one of these. I know that lots of stuff is made under different names etc but wondered what these are like. Price seems ok , Thinking about spares , will it last etc.
I am replacing an old aircosse 9cfm 25litre tank one cica 1974 !!!

Or would it be best to wait for vat free day at Machine Mart ?
Cheers
Kirk

I've had a Wolf compressor for a while now and it's never let me down,however if it did ,i don't know where to go for spares,apparently there no longer in business.

theres only a few things that can go wrong . pump . motor .pressure switch one way valve to tank. belts . all machine mart stuff can be fitted without much bother

I had to recently update my compressor to accomodate an air fed mask plus the fact that it was getting a little 'tired'. I did what you have in mind and bought a Clarke Industrial compressor on the latest VAT free day at Machine Mart. Should do all that I will need, hopefully.
