So before anything else... I'm pretty sure that they are pre owned box sets. That being said, mine was complete and undamaged.
About the compressor; it had a few scratches but worked like a charm. About as loud as an AC unit. Easy to drown out and forget it's on. The pressure adjust dial has a "lock on this setting" feature that is easily missed and quite tough to disable. Once disabled it's easy to adjust the pressure and I'd really recommend studying the machine as I've noticed a lot of other reviews claim it came broken but I think they just didn't notice the dial lock. Quite hard to miss unless you're looking for it. Also has a water trap built in. Seems easy to drain, only time and humidity will tell if I need that.
On the hose; it comes with one braided hose. Feels really nice! Quite a quality feel and works great. Good length to keep the compressor on the floor and work on my desk comfortably. (Keep it on the floor for sound and just in case I knock it over it won't fall 3 feet and break)
On the airbrushes; as I mainly purchased this kit to paint Warhammer miniatures and the like... I shall be talking about it's performance in that regard. Also, because of it being mainly used for that reason, I didn't use the bottom fed airbrush as I need to change paints quite quickly and frequently and a jar just isn't as effective. The G22 and G25 airbrushes that came with this kit surprised me. The quality and heft feel good in my hand. The first thing I did when I got them out was take them apart, clean them with airbrush cleaner and (most importantly) oil pretty much everything. I disassembled it gently, cleaned it throughout, oiled every fit and joint, oiled the screw parts, oiled the needle, reassembled it and ran cleaner through the cup to clear it of excess oil and then ran water to ready it for paint. Worked flawlessly, no squeaks or scraping parts. I will say it's important to practice how accurate you can be with the spray as you seldom full blast the paint out. A few good youtube videos on how to use them properly is best. I ran diluted acrilic paints through it with no issues or dry tip. Probably because I oiled the needle first, maybe because I run air after every paint spray so no paint stays on the tip. Ran primer through it as well, no issues. Primes like a dream. It's an excellent starting point for a beginner. The brushes aren't $200 iwata quality like everyone everywhere kept telling me to buy, but they work for the job I needed them for spectacularly. Very fun and easy to prime and zenithal highlight. Very easy to get great gradients in paint schemes and have models look amazing. Very quick to dry paints. Sometimes I just ran air and helped speed up the process of drying coats of paint applied with a regular brush. I can definitely learn and make mistakes with these before upgrading later down the road that won't be so costly. If you break or bend the needle, a replacement is $10. If you accidentally clog a piece, the airbrush is only $25. If you break one and need to keep painting that day, it comes with 2 others that will work until you get a replacement. It's great. Quite friendly towards all beginners and mini painters. The compressor alone is worth the money. The G22 and 25 are just a bonus to learn with.
I had great luck with my order. Everything came as advertised and worked like a charm. Still cleaned and oiled the brushes first. Compressor can continue to be used as I get better and upgrade to a higher quality airbrush. Most importantly, for the money, it's worth every penny.

Met expectations for the $$$. Good starter kit.
Purchased as my first airbrush kit and I felt like there wasn't much to lose for the price. I purchased with the intention for using this set up in moderate use to paint and weather 1:35 scale model kits and dioramas. So far they have worked well and like anything else, they take a allot of practice and patience and trial and error to get good results. I've had a few problems here and there with the brushes "spitting", pressure being too low / high, etc but I attribute that all to how I operate the brushes and compressor. I feel like good results have come based on techniques I've developed, how well I've mixed my paints & thinners and how clean I've kept the brushes. I've used Vallejo washes, Testors enamel and Tamiya acrylic paints through these with no issues. I've got good results and will eventually move up to higher quality brushes and a compressor.The airbrushes all work well and the compressor with regulator has worked flawlessly. I've read some reviews on here that reported the compressor to arrive and not work or that it crapped out after limited use. I'd estimate I've had mine on for as long as 10 or 15 minutes at a time, have operated it for a total of a couple hours and it has not given me any problems at all.The kit arrived in 1 box and made it to me in good time. The only negative was that the little brass nipple that connected the compressor to the regulator was broke during in half during shipping so I had to go to Home Depot and buy a replacement to reconnect them. Some would have considered it a damaged shipment but being in Alaska I chose to accept it as is and replace the broken fitting myself without having to lose any time by returning and exchanging it.
