Review: It really is 75db. Nice and quiet. - First thing, it arrived 2 days early. Although it is too soon to see how well it lasts I am totally amazed with the quality and workmanship in this compressor. The welds are perfect, the motors all are tight, there were no air leaks from the moment I fired it up. Stainless steel braided lines, complete with regulator and auto water drain. All I had to do was screw on the air filters and plug it in. When they opened up the truck I was shocked to see the compressor laying down! You cannot lay down an oil based compressor but this is OILLESS. the driver explained that with the oilless ones there company would rather lay it down properly rather than have it fall over. Again, someone taking an extra step and having pride in what they are doing. . And it really is quiet. Quieter that my little pancake style compressor. As I said, it is too early to tell how long it will last but my first impression is that it will last a long time for what I have in mind with it. Would definitely recommend 100% and would definitely buy again. Great product. And customer service was right on top of things when I sent a few emails with questions. They got back to me in about an hour or two. Happy customer, very happy.
Review: Excellent quiet compressor for a serious home shop - Owned this unit since November 2019 and it gets used at least 2-3 days a week every week since new roughly 6 years ago. I have air lines run throughout my shop and hose reel outside in the driveway. I use it for filling tires on vehicles I work on or my yard equipment, for blowing things off as cleaning or myself after mowing/edging, sometimes use air tools like a cutoff wheel or die grinder, drying off my dirt bike after washing, etc etc. It's pretty quiet compared to other compressors for sure but it's not "quiet" per se. You can still somewhat have a conversation near it while running. There are some small leaks on mine that I have tried to block off completely but every 24-36 hours I will hear the motor kick back on from a slow leak. It is set to turn back on at 90psi I usually just leave it full at 120psi so it's always ready to go whenever I need it.

Quiet. Seems to work really well. Low amp draw should make it cheaper to use. Packaged well and put where I needed it. The guys were great. Not trained very well. But great attitude. Could have given a heads up. But worked out.
