  • Perfect compressor for a garage or small shop
Size: 8 Gallon Style: Aluminum Tank
This compressor is very quiet, portable and provides the performance I need for my home shop. I have used it for air nailing baseboard, airing up tires and blowing dust and dirt from many items. It is very well-made and can be moved easily to another location. I really like the aluminum tank, too. I would recommend to any homeowner! ... show more

  • Sooooo quiet!
Size: 8 Gallon Style: Aluminum Tank
After 20 years, my very noisy little Craftsman compressor developed a pin-hole tank leak because I neglected to periodically drain it. Based on this experience, I was drawn to this compressor by California Air Tools for two reasons. First, rated at 60 dB, it promised to be very quiet. (In fact, this rating seems to be a bit optimistic. I measured the sound level at 65-70dB in my garage from a distance of 6ft using an app on my phone. Nevertheless, the the sound level is very tolerable, and I'm totally satisfied with it.) Second, the tank is aluminum, so even a numbskull like me can't wreck the tank by forgetting to periodically drain it. In addition to these advantages, the unit measures slightly smaller than the stated dimensions, and it tucked away nicely in the small space allotted to it. Motor vibrations are minimal, so the unit does not dance around when running, unlike my old Craftsman. Finally, the tank and fittings do not leak at all, so it could be left on all the time without having the motor come to life when not in use. This compressor checks all of the boxes for me, and I think it's well worth the extra cost compared with some of the competing models. ... show more

  • Excellent for my purposes; ordered 2
Size: 8 Gallon Style: Aluminum Tank
My AC arrived today. Having read every review before ordering, and with some anticipation, I first checked the condition of the external box and it looked in good condition. The box inside was the actual CAT’s box and it looked new and also good condition. Opening that internal box I found all of the parts expected and the AC itself in excellent condition—-no scratches, no dings, no blemishes, no imperfection or worrisome cracks—-nothing; the entire contents looks perfect. Welds at the ends of the tanks look perfect. I decided to spend a little more and get the aluminum tank over the steel tank for 2 reasons: rust-free and lighter. OK; on to assembly—-Easy attaching the wheels, but I added lock washers to make the bolts more secure. No problem attaching front foot rubber bumper. I attached the air filter, hand-tight as the manual instructs (yes; some people actually *do* read manuals! :-) ) There is a short plastic hose that attaches to the air filter but it ended up pointing vertically upward. That did not seem like a good position for it to be in. I began to bend the tube and attach some duck tape so that it was at least somewhat horizontal until I discovered that the cover to the air filter could easily be removed and rotated so that the hose ended up pointing almost vertically downward = much better solution (no tape needed.) Plugged it in and turned it on. Almost jumped back as a habit to my extremely noisy and annoying old pancake AC—-but no! It is much quieter. I would not say that it is “ultra quiet”, but the sound level is very acceptable—even pleasant! I checked for leaks, again as directed by the manual, using a soapy water spray bottle. I found no leaks anywhere—-and I checked every possible location: valves, cables, connectors, guages—-everything. I also checked the tightness of all the bolts—-all were fine. It is a bit odd, the orientation of the 2 pressure gauges: the tank guage being read from the side and the regulator guage being read from the top. No biggie, but I might install a 45 or 90 degree angled connector on the tank guage. I did that with my old compressor and it was then much more convenient reading the guage. Many reviewers say that they found some components to be too fragile—-especially the regulator. I am not sure I would agree with that. On the other hand my AC will remain stationary in the corner of my garage for the vast majority of the time, using a long hose reel. So I am not worried about breaking anything on the AC. If you are going to be transporting this a lot you might want to read the other reviews. Overall I am very pleased with this AC initially. If it lasts 3-5 years I will consider it an excellent purchase. Easily 5 stars for my purposes. I ordered a second one. ... show more

  • Works well so far but do not attach an extension cord.
Size: 8 Gallon Style: Aluminum Tank
I am a forty year veteran of small 6-8 gallon air compressors. My first small horizontal 6 gallon air compressor lasted 25 years. My second 6 gallon pancake air compressor lasted 10 years. My use rate is of an ordinary homeowner that uses his air compressor intermittently for blowing off riding lawn mower, adding air to tires, occasionally using pneumatic tools, etc. So what do I think of the California tools air compressor? The first thing I look at on any air compressor are the welds. On my unit the welds show no imperfections. The second thing I look for is air leaks. My compressor holds air well and shows no indication of air leaks. The air compressor fills quickly and is the quietest unit I have ever owned. One word of caution. Do not, I repeat do not use an extension cord of any size and length to power this compressor. The ari compressor has a tag right on the power cord stating not use an extention cord but I did not notice it. The extension cord caused the air compressor to overheat. It took approximately 30 minutes for the compressor to cool enough to restart. My oversight appears not to have caused any permanent damage. if you need to reach farther distances buy a longer air hose. All in all I am very pleased with my purchase. How many years will this unit last? Who knows but I am looking forward to using this air compressor for years to come. ... show more

  • 1st Unit Leaked, 2nd is fine
Size: 8 Gallon Style: Aluminum Tank
These are very quiet units - I have never heard an air compressor so quiet. It’s very light in weight. However the unit I received had a leak in the swege fittings near tge pressure gauge. Which was likely an easy fix if you gave the tools but as this was a new unit we returned it. The return was easy enough. few days for the credit to show, after which I ordered the 2nd unit that arrived yesterday. Assemble it this morning and ran it to 90 pounds. Did not notice any leaks and after 8 hours the pressure has dropped no more,than two pounds. So I am changing the review from a 3 to a 4. After I use it for several weeks will update it. I am not sure that this had not been returned before sS the interior box was sealed with packing tape which I thought unusual. I have ordered another unit and will update the review. ... show more
