Love this airbrush. I had never worked with one before purchasing this. Easy to get started, small, compact, but does the job for me. I was concerned it would be too loud and vibrate too much, but I have not had a problem with either situation. For my needs this was reasonably priced and is a winner for me. I use it with alcohol inks, acrylics, watercolors, stencils and have blown masking fluid across a page with it.

I have been painting miniatures (stuff like 40k and such) for years, and finally wanted to do something that I KNEW would be intensely easier with an airbrush. I decided to give this setup a try, and I was not disappointed. I liked it so much that I also got a G233-SET by Master so that I could have two brushes (the G233-SET comes with a .2 needle, and I figured that would be easier to get smaller paint action out of it). Disassembly isn't an issue, nor is cleaning (though, again, this is my first brush, so I can't say how much easier other brands/models are). One thing I could suggest is getting some Badger Needle Juice to lube the airbrush up (there's youtube videos you can find about it). Using the Needle Juice made both the G22 (which comes with this set) and the G233 super smooth feeling. The compressor has worked like a charm, and, while I cannot attest to the longevity of the unit, it does seem to be pretty well made.

Everything came in great shape. It is really quiet. My model seems to be an improved version over earlier models (has more vent holes in the back, still heats a little however). The hose isn't exactly 6 feet, I haven't measured mine but its definitely not as long as I am tall. As far as the airbrush itself, it seems to work fine. Some fiddling may be needed to find the proper working pressure though. Overall its really great for the price. As a beginner myself I would recommend this as a great place to start. Hard to find a compressor and airbrush for less than a hundred dollars.

All around low quality, but that might be okay. I original received this item as a gift, the first kit leaked like crazy. I returned that one to Amazon. The second one had a defect with the compressor which caused it to stall when starting up causing a massive drop in pressure. That one I contacted TCP Global about, the troubleshooting process took a bit longer than I would have liked (over a week due to them sending me a regulator first before ultimately replacing my compressor).

After about 3 weeks I finally have a working airbrush setup. Here's the thing though. Each compressor I got was different(color, end caps, switches), and not just in minor details. The first and second compressors were more powerful than the compressor I ultimately ended up with. The first two were 1/5 HP, however the TC-20 compressor they sent me to replace the kit one was 1/6 HP (in fact the TC-20 compressor is advertised as 1/6 when its sold outside of the kit).

The result of the weaker compressor is that it can only really steadily maintain ~28PSI which is way lower than the Createx paints I bought suggests.

I'm not going to return it. I'm just going to deal with it and thin my paint a bit. However, in retrospect I wish I bought the comparable kit at my local Harbor Freight. I could have cycled through all the defective units much more quickly.

I am totally new to airbrushing. I read reviews and recommendations from many internet sites, and this was not on any "top of the lists". After checking out prices for the "top of the list" airbrushes, my choice started to lean toward something more affordable. I bought this one because the price of the compressor alone was worth what I would spent on this set. So, I tried it, and, I love it! It's definitely more than I expected. I'm happy with the quality, and the results. Definitely a great price. It's easy to assemble; easy to do. I'm airbrushing repairs. I'm airbrushing new ceramic pieces. I'm looking around the house the see if anything needs some 'touching-up'; yeah' going a little airbrush crazy. Needless to say, I am very happy with my purchase.
