California Air Tools 8010A Aluminum Tank Air Compressor | Ultra Quiet, Oil-Free, 1.0 hp, 8 gal

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.

Great little compressor. This is perfect for my application. It’s a permanent fixture in my go kart race trailer. It’s super quiet and supplies all the air I need at the track to keep up with three karts. The generator (3500 watt Champion), doesn’t even sure when it kicks in. Easy to set up. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

I use this in a small garage. My old compressor was much smaller and would rattle your teeth when it kicked on. This one is much quieter and makes my workplace much more pleasant to be in.

Works well for filling tires and blowing away air. Dont expect to run any air tools with this. The tank is much too small.

Its quiet, but already showing issues of not keeping up. Purchased to run as the air assist for my laser cutter, kept up with air demand perfectly to start, but 2 months later it takes forever to fill and no longer keeps up with the laser.

Very quiet compressor. Had to modify the bump stop in the front. Has two wheels in the back and one floor mount in front. Compressor is top heavy, I had to make a bracket for the front to keep it from tipping over.

Everything worked as expected right out of the box. It fills the tank in just over 2 minutes. I replaced the quick couple at the tank with my own 25 foot hose with quick coupler on the end. I turned the pump off and was gone for over two weeks and when I came back the pressure was exactly where I left it (no leaks). The compressor is pleasantly quiet as that was a primary objective for me in replacing my old unit. A little more expensive than some units but as long as it holds up over time I feel it will be worth it.

I used one of these at the track and liked it so much I bought my own. Very small footprint, amazingly quiet and the pressure is terrific for setting the bead on tires. Great deal.

With out any question this is the quietest compressor I have ever had. This thing fills quickly and is very pleasant to work around. Sounds like a sewing machine. Really nice.

I just purchased a new decibel meter from Amazon to test some of my power equipment noise levels. When I got my new California air compressor I was anxious to see how close to the 60 decibels it actually was. Well upon first running the compressor I noticed lots of rattling noise coming from it, and when I used the meter is was registering it at around 84 decibels from about 8 ft away - this is where i placed it in my work shop. Bottom line it is not anywhere near 60 decibels. ( I wish it was) But you still need hearing protection when it it running.
