Iwata-Medea Studio Series Power Jet Lite Double Piston Air Compressor

Perfect!!

Too noisy

Very quiet. Holds line pressure very well, only runs when painting. Easy to control pressure.

good

Item came as described

I bought this coming off an Iwata Sprint Jet Id used for about 14 years. Coming from the old to the new is nice, but frankly the features arent super impressive as far as the upgrade, but as a first compressor, you should like this unit. The Smart feature is honestly a little odd for me, as the unit surges while this smart feature kicks on and off. Makes it a little hard when youre looking for exactly 15psi and its constantly wavering between 18-13psi as the smart feature turns on an off. Seems like a poorly designed feature. It would be nice if there was an option to turn it off. It hasnt honestly effected any of my work, but Im aware its happening. The pressure is instant and thats nice, but I wish there was some kind of reserve tank so that the pressure didnt keep wavering. The adjustment knob for the pressure works well compared to the old locking nut adjustment and the metal housing keeps the unit quiet and vibrationally insulated. Biggest gripe is the high price, but still nice.

Great air compressor. I received it in the time quoted. Small quiet compact unit. I use it in my Nail Salon to do creative fancy nail art design. Oil free compressor. I like this unit. Works for me in my business.

I love this airbrush compressor. The cord it came with is nice and long and not heavy at all. It isnt loud, definitely quieter than a vacuum cleaner. It kicks on in one second spurts while Im airbrushing and its not hard to get used to. I dont notice any change in my guns flow as it kicks on and off. It is very easy to adjust the pressure. Its really heavy, but it sits under my desk 99% of the time so thats not a concern for me.

Not much you can say other than it works great and performs leaps and bounds above any cheaper air compressor you might come across. If you are serious about airbrushing and plan on doing more than one project this thing is the way to go. It is a bit of an investment, however it is one that pays off in the long run.

After a ton of online research I decided to buy this for makeup airbrushing. I am so glad I did. The small units do not last very long and cost about the same. This system is so well made I am wondering if I will ever need another machine in my lifetime.
