good home indoor unit

Bought this for my son for Christmas. He lives in an apartment & needed something to air up is sports equipment and bike. He says its quiet (can't hear it run outside of the room he keeps it in) and fills the tank quickly.

I like it, VERY quiet but tiny ha we didn't ...

It works, I like it, VERY quiet but tiny ha we didn't realize it was so small but it fills up tires of all kinds which is what we need right now and honestly it's mad cute hahaha

Read the specs on this compressor before you buy it.

This is an exceptional little compressor for what is designed for.... Period. This is a finish carpenter's personal friend. Very light weight and quiet, and will keep up with your finish, brad or narrow crown stapler with no fuss. Probably very good for air brushing to. Don't expect to fill your truck tires or blow out the shop. I got this for my workbench air supply because I was tired of hearing my big 5 HP compressor firing up.

Small compressor great for many small applications- excellent build and price

This is an excellent unit FOR CERTAIN INTENDED USES. It’s very light, very compact, very well built, and the quietest compressor I’ve ever had. Best of all, it doesn’t require much current at all to start and run full cycle- meaning it can be used at any plug, and doesn’t mind being used at the end of long extension cords. I bought it for portable use around the home and shop, applications where carrying this is easier than dragging hundreds of feet of hose around from a stationary compressor. Applications this will be god for: -small blowgun jobs, cleaning small parts or clearing dust from small areas - bikes, balls, sports equipment -filling automotive, light truck, ATV, lawn equipment tires -air powered finish/trim nailers The tank is just a gallon and the CFM of the tiny compressor isn’t much. As long as you aren’t making unrealistic expectations of this compressor, it will be handy for many, many uses home and shop alike.

Great unit ....but don't try filling tires

Well built .... great price for small projects NOTE: will not fill tires ..... sent it back and ordered the Makita 700 big bore.

quiet.

quietest compressor i have used yet, would buy again or recommend, but only for small projects.

Exceptional

I have this little ac001 and the mac2400 from Makita. I love them both for different reasons. This little guy I use quite regularly, definitely more than I thought I would. From tires to brad nails to whatever needs air it does great. Haven’t pumped up my truck tires but it did great on my moms car and my motorcycles. Biggest pros are the unmatched quality and how quiet it is. Honestly your kitchen faucet makes more racket than this thing I love it

light and quiet

Small, quiet, light weight. Works great, only issue is I had to ajust the kick on pressure setting to come on sooner. Even runs a finish nailer on hard maple. I recommend to any one that does a lot of trim work like me.

Quiet

Great compressor. Quiet with a fast initial charge and recovery time. I have used this for many remodels.

Small, light, quiet, and plenty effective for DIYer

Even after reading other reviews saying how small this unit is, I was still surprised when I actually pulled it out of the box. It's small, and light enough for even an old guy like me to carry around with one hand. I ran it for 20 minutes to break it in, per the instructions, and couldn't even hear it when I walked out of the room. I tested it with two Makita nailers I also just got (an 18 gauge brad nailer and a 16 gauge finish nailer). I used scraps of oak molding, nailing them to a scrap length of 2x4. Half a dozen shots in row (many times faster than I'd use the nailers for real) were no problem at all. This isn't intended for a pro roofing a house, but for an amateur DIYer like me, this little compressor is absolutely perfect.
