ToolBarn.com was the worst site I have ever seen! It was the worst site because they sell products, but their products are not very good. Their electric air compressor was not very good because it had many problems. It was much cheaper than other websites and stores in the area but the quality was terrible. The reason why I am giving them 3 stars is because of their affordable prices and their fast shipping. However, I'd never buy from this site ever again. It was my first time but I ended disappointed. Also, I felt that their customer service doesn't care about their customer's satisfaction. They were so unhelpful even when I raised a complaint.
