I needed a lighter weight compressor to replace my 20 yr old twin tank Craftsman. This is both small and lightweight - so easy to carry - and as quiet as other reviewers have stated. Using it inside the house - brad nailers and finish nailers - and it has performed flawlessly. Runs up to pressure quickly and recovery is fast as well. Perfect for what I use it for but obviously not suitable for framing or roofing nailers, or other high CFM draw air tools.

I have returned this after one use. Using an air hose to blow sawdust the tank was drained in about 15 seconds while I got a good 120 psi for about 5 seconds. I called customer service to see if there was some instruction I was missing and all that was available were a list of selections like, press 2, press 3. Could not get someone on the line so I shipped it.

Awesome for the job site. It’s very quiet and pretty light. The square style base doesn’t flip over in back of the truck. It’s quiet enough that I can be having a conversation while it’s running. It’s is made for finish guns, and if needed probably a few shots with the framer would max it out, but man is it quiet compared to an older makita I wore out. I will replace my larger compressor when it dies with the bigger one just because of how quiet it is.

This compressor was packaged extremely well and arrive undamaged. (Actually 1 day earlier than expected). I’ve tested it under heavy load for 2 days straight with no issues. Yes it has to fill up the small tank often but does so quicker than any other brand I’ve ever seen. I’ve been a professional Mechanic for over 25 years and have dealt with many air compressors, this one is amazing for its size and output. As for the loudness of the unit... just as described. Very, very quiet. I plan on buying the largest one this company makes for my shop. I hope the quality of this small unit carries over to a larger one.

Unit arrived with a screw and washer missing on one of the feet.

Quietest air compressor on the market. Quick connect fitting on compressor was faulty. Had to replace. Thus a star taken away.

I purchased this compressor mainly for airbrushing anything from textiles to game miniatures. If Im able to fill up a low car tire or other inflatables, that is a bonus. Although I have not had the opportunity to use it for inflating low car tires, it does work perfectly for indoor airbrushing. The motor runs quiet enough for indoor use. It does vibrate a bit if used on a slick surface like the tile floors I have in my craft room, but placing it against something to prevent it from moving is easy enough. I highly recommend this compressor for airbrushing due to the cost and low noise factor. EDIT: Still a great compressor. I have used it to top off the air pressure in my car tires and it worked great. I did need to purchase an air compressor accessory kit that had a tire chuck and air hose.
