i have a craftsman and it sucks, it won't break loose lugs, i used to borrow my neighbors husky, way more torque and cheaper.

ill have to agree with the above, I bought a compressor and it came with a butt load of air tools and they are all Husky and so far I have had no probs, not that i use the air tools all the time but when I have its got the job done..They have a great air chizel now that I use alot to take out windows and the job Im at now I am removeing a shit load of concrete and that thing has been kicking ass, I also have a Craftsman air chisel and I like the Husky better, more blows per sec than the other,,,,,my .02cent

Dont cheap out on an impact. Spend $250 and get an IR 2135ti. rated at 700ft/lbs and will bust a bolt torqued to 1000ft/lbs loose in 6 seconds. I had an IR2131 rated at 600ftlbs and would still be using it if it weren't stolen. I will have me a 2135ti very soon.
