I purchased a 2 gallon air compressor model FP 2048. I took the air hose out of the box. Without hooking the air hose to the compressor I stretched the hose out. When I did this the hose broke sprung to gether and pieces flew everywhere. The pieces cut my face and left hand. The hose was hard brittle blue plastic in the shape of a spring. I contacted the store where I bought it and said they would contact the supplier. They never did and now no longer know where the compressor went. I kept a piece of the hose and it is as hard as a plastic Bic pen.
