Metabo HPT Quiet Air Compressor | 125 PSI | 1 Gallon | EC28M

Relative to many other compressors it is quiet, but dont expect it to be silent, its definitely not. Its like a loud person talking level. Guess I was expecting too much from some of the rave reviews. Also the packaging has the regulator and air output pushed against the box face, leaving little to no protection when shipped. Lucky for me, both the regulator and air output had pushed through the box but were not damaged (as far as I can tell). Some reviewers had the regulator fail later, and It may have been caused by shipping damage, so look closely for shipping damage.

Love how quiet this unit is. Works well with pin nailers. Wish it had a little bigger holding tank But overall a great little compressor.

If you want quiet this is it, Im going to get a second one, I think you can make a quieter setup for at home with 2 of these little guys than one bigger one

I have used this compressor for close to two years. I am a finish carpenter so it gets used about 5 days a week. It is super quiet, is fine for one gun, fast fill time. I can not find any complaints and would suggest buying it if you are considering it.

Love it

This air compressor is astoundingly quiet. Absolutely perfect for my basement for cleaning out electronic devices and other items. My only complaint is the fact that the air tank on this unit is very small. I had to go out and buy an auxiliary tank to make this air compressor adequate for constant high airflow.

Seriously, why cant everyone make a compressor like this? This baby just purrs when it kicks in, instead of rattling the windows like most others do. I also have the Rolair JC10, which sounds almost exactly the same, but weighs twice as much. This one is perfect for grabbing on the go when you just need to drive a few nails or staples to finish a project.

only negative --hard to read gauges unless you are setting on the floor. Other than that compressor is awesome. Well built but very light. I installed base boards and door trim on whole house. Compressor easy to move and easily kept up on air. Even my wife noticed how quiet it is. Great value --I had doubts about it being as quiet as claimed but pleasantly surprised. well worth the money

I used this for 4 months starting giving issues, now just completely went dead, can’t hold any pressure and makes weirdest sound. I saw a lot reviews about it same issues less time... I recommend going to local store and get warranty, you might spend a little bit more but it’s totally worth it. I’m never buying any of these from Amazon, matter fact I’m leaving work earlier to buy a replacement

After trying several “quiet” air compressors, I’m happy to say I’ve finally found one that’s actually quiet. It does the job. I use it mostly for cleaning out sawdust from my machines. I do wish it had a better sustained airflow, though. It seems to trail off a bit after the initial blast of air. I had trouble getting a 1/4” hose attached to the unit. After several attempts, I decided to try with the tank empty. Once fully drained, it took the the connection no problem.
