California Air Tools CAT-4610S Ultra Quiet & Oil-Free 1.0 hp 4.6 gallon Steel Twin Tank Electric Portable Air Compressor, Silver

Super quiet, but thats why I bought it. Well packaged, it survived intact as I watched the UPS man roll it out the door of the truck (yes, he rolled the square box up the aisle and was end-over-ending it down the stairs when I told him to stop and I would take it from there). At roughly 45lbs, its not heavy, but still not light; however, definitely light enough to carry out of a truck. Would be nice to see an aluminum frame for even more weight savings. The on/off switch is not readable unless you have a clear angle as its black on black. I simply wrote on/off with a white marker to make identification quicker, especially in low light. Because of the small capacity it took some time to fine adjust the regulator to (110psi max) without going below. Once I found it, I marked the spot as a reference. I was easily able to adjust the low limit switch to 95psi (factory appeared to be ~85psi) to ensure my nailer didnt fall below minimum. Finally I dont get interrupted by the compressor, and the baby can still sleep when I work inside. For reference, I replaced a bostich pancake with this unit. I swear the bostich was louder than my 5hp shop compressor. This compressor is being used for nail guns only. You could fill tires and do the occasional blast of air, but capacity is lacking for any flowing air application.

I owned the cheap Porter-Cable pancake compressor...it was so loud I felt guilty using it outside because of my neighbors, and I could never use it inside if my kids were trying to sleep. Thankfully it eventually started to fail and I was able to replace it with this one. It is so quiet you can use any time of the day or night. Really smooth and powerful, one of my best purchases ever.

Ive only had it a month but so far I love it. It is definatly the quietist compressor I have ever used. The people that work around me cant believe how quiet to is. Update= well its been around 4 years and this compressor is great. Almost daily use and not one issue!!!

Purchased this compressor in Dec 2018 . The compressor motor burnt up this week. Only used it about 30 hours per year so the estimated use is about 120 hours. The advertisement states the unit life is at least 3,000 hours. The unit was always stored indoors never abused. A replacement motor sells for over $300 including tax and shipping. The unit sold for $330 delivered. Watch this YouTube presentation of how to repair the motor. California Air Tool Compressor Failure and Repair Judge for yourself.

Super quiet compared to my pancake compressor. Love it so far.

The compressor is ultra quiet like advertised. the cut time cannot be adjusted to anything faster that 90 psi. Great for from carpenters but not for framing carpenters that have to drive 16 gauge nails on to LSL or thick stock in a quick shooting sequence.

I own a Lemon shake up stand this air compressor is the hart of it . It goes down we are out for the day so far so good. It suit off one time then I released it has got to plug in direct no extinction cords

Meets all my needs 100%. How quiet is amazing and easy for this ok’d man to carry snd move to where needed.

Quiet but it does have to run near constant to keep up. On the plus side it fills very quickly.

Very nice to have, Never have to hear that old job site compressor again! Fast and strong! Great!
