    I just got my new compressor, easy to put together it’s actually smaller than I thought it would be but man it’s just inquired. I write very few reviews but I wanted to let everybody know that I am optimistic this is the best compressor I’ve ever bought. It is actually quieter than a normal conversation which shocked me. I got the aluminum model for the lighter weight. I’m sure this thing will work flawless for 20 years

    First day of receipt, I had a conversation while standing over the unit, and it wasn’t until it stopped that we realized how much of an improvement the noise level was over our last compressor. No leaks right out of the box. Very well packaged and presented. The noise level will vary based on the environment it is used in, but it’s awfully quiet- for a compressor. After the first week of use, I filled the tank and have been monitoring the pressure, three weeks later, and no air loss. Probably quiet enough to use inside for evening, but not too late, for airbrushing in an apartment. Nice fittings and drain valve. Regulator feels and acts like a good one. The aluminum tank is a great feature and won’t leave rusty puddles when the tank is drained. Lightweight too, lift and carry it around with one hand. If the handle was longer or the wheels larger diameter, I’d have not found out how light it was. The handle causes average height human to bend over while rolling it; if you stand up, the end of the tank will drag and the compressor gets a little unwieldy because it is almost balanced on the wheels, and wants to pirouette, like a wiener dog dancing on two legs. When my 80G compressor dies, I’ll be looking at their replacement model.

    So quiet when its running (we can use it in the house and have a conversation at the same time). Seems efficient in terms of consistent cycle during use. Our lesson is you *must* drain tank when youre done for the day. We left it pressurized and after one day the check valve spring was compressed and it wouldnt start. Once we figured that out, the fix was pretty quick and easy but this is more finicky than other consumer-level compressors.

    It is definitely quieter than my last one and light weight, which makes it fairly easy to transport to job sites. Because it is cheaply built, not surprising for the price, Im really paranoid about damaging it in any way. I dropped my last one a couple of times and it still held together. Not confident that something wont break off with this one. Otherwise, it does what I need it to do.

    I use this all day, and its so quiet I keep forgetting to shut it off at the end of the day.

    Super quiet. Lightweight. Fills quickly. My kid, the engineer, said to buy this one. I agree. Perhaps a few dollars more than the cheapie brands, but this critter hums. Literally hums.

    I like it. It tips over backward though if you’re not careful. Needs more lateral and longitudinal stability. Better wheels would help and maybe a few more stabilizing feet.

    Since over time every compressor i had rusted out i decided to get the Aluminum model and im very happy with the compressor. Its very light for the 8 gallon size and when i fired it up in the house, you could have a normal conversation while its running. My last series of compressors were ear numbingly loud , This is a very nice unit and i highly recommend it!

    So much nicer than the big, old, very loud air compressor we replaced. Easy to move around and so nice it is quiet. Good job

    Solid packaging, arrived in great condition, very minimal assembly required. Compressor looks great, runs smooth, and most importantly- runs very quiet. I am very happy with this purchase. 10/10 would recommend
