Senco PC1010 1/2- Horsepower 1-Gallon Matte Finish and Trim Portable Hot Dog Air Compressor, Gray/Red

Great for small jobs, trim work, and when you dont want to lug a big compressor around. Suitable for baseboard and casing installation too. The only weakness Ive found is that the check valve failed within two years. Its a $16 part so not a huge deal but I have other compressors that have been cranking for 10 years without any repair parts needed. Its so small and light. Love it despite the necessary repair.

I purchased this item from Amazon about a year ago. Ive used Senco pancake compressors for construction projects. So, even though I know Senco is more a mere brand now, I thought Id give this little puppy a try. I had a project at home where a window AC unit was next to the range. We left it in the widow over winter, and frost from steam from the range would gather around the AC. Then it would sort of melt, and the sill got really warped. I borrowed a brad nailer and a finish nailer, and the little Senco handled driving probably 40 nails perfectly. I found it drove 1-1/2 finish nails all the way, even until cycling on. But I had the output pressure at 125 psi.. I also use it--at a lower pressure--to blow dust out of whatever is dusty. I think it weighs about 20 lbs. So, you can haul it anywhere with one arm! If youre going to blow out electronic chassiss then you have to buy and install a trap/filter. Otherwise, youll make a mess. There are certain weak points that necessitate special care, such as draining the water from the tank with no more than 10 lbs. of pressure in it. Saves the valve over time. But they could have just used a different valve! The safety precautions are basically absurd, because it would take all day to properly observe them, and they amount to nothing but illegitimate blame-shedding from manufacturer to end-user. Im just not going to put on safety goggles when I breech a ten-foot radius from the compressor. But the thing is so small for a piston compressor that it can pass for cute.

[Sold by: Amazon.com LLC] This is a nice little compressor. I bought it on a whim to keep in garage to top-off car tires and blow air filters clean. Also bought Senco 18MG nailer and it all worked well. But lets be clear, THIS IS 1 GALLON, and its wont do anything in the way of impact wrench, large paint spray, etc. Might handle small hobby airbrushing.. someone else would have to confirm that. It is well built and appears to be good quality. Bought the Milton adapters, etc (S-210 coupler kit), along with Legacy HFZP1450YW2 Flexzilla Pro 1/4 x 50 Hybrid Air Hose (1/4 MNPT ends). Went together well and had no problems.

This compressor is light and compact and easily maneuvered around the job site. Construction is solid with good quality components and great overall design. It is also the quietest compressor I have ever heard. Hurricane Michael left us with a lot of repair work to our vacation home in Mexico Beach, FL. I could not haul all the tools I needed from home in PA, so I bought this small compressor from Amazon to power a brad nailer for replacing floor and trim. The compressor worked perfectly and quietly, and did not even bother our dogs when it kicked on.

I liked the portability and low noise of this compressor. However it was inadequate for the heavier nailing I want to do. I think you need to better aware of your needs before purchasing any compressor. I needed more CFM and faster recovery.

Keeps up with 2 trim guns just fine.

I love this little compressor. I’ve been using it now for about 6 months. I own a interior trim company and the more we grow, the more it seems I do small stuff and punch work. This thing is amazing for this. It’s so convenient to not have to beak out my big compressor. I actually like using this with my Brad nailer, more then my Paslode gas guns. The compressor is light, and well built. It’s also super quite, I’m able to even talk on my phone while it’s running. I typically use it with my Brad nailer or pin nailer. I get about 20 pins on a tank with the pin nailer and 9 with my Brad nailer. The compressor is also a bargain at the price I bought it at on Amazon. I found it’s about $60 more in the big box store. I will being buying more of these soon for my other trucks. It’s worth every penny and if your looking for a quality compressor for the small stuff you can go wrong here.

I bought this air compressor to fill 29 inch tubeless mountain bike tires. It does the job - just. A sufficient blast of air is needed to seat the tires and this compressor is just able to do the task. I will likely also use the blower to dry off wet chain rings - but I doubt I will use it for much more. Dont expect a large reservoir of air! That being said, it is very light, well built and I do like the compact design. I looked at comparably sized compressors from Craftsman, Porter Cable and Campbell Hausfeld. This unit is much smaller and lighter. On the down side, it comes with no attachments. I would certainly buy it again.

I recently had to change thing at my home studio that i use for airbrushing projects. I had a Porter Cable 6gal pancake compressor. and it works fantastic with only one drawback. It is very very loud inside the house hence all the complaints every time i turned it on. So I went hunting for something a little quieter. The best place to search was here at Amazon and not to my surprise I found and read the reviews on the Senco PC1010 and bought it. WOW! What a great buy for the money. Very affordable, very easy to get around and best of all it is very quiet. the recovery time is very short. If you are looking for a great airbrush compressor save yourself a lot of money and get this compressor. You will not regret it.

I have been a cabinet maker by trade for over ten years. After I install cabinets, I have to put up crown molding and shoe trim. This is where the PC1010 comes in. Considering the capacity and power level of this compressor, I should only run a nailer or stapler on this. Another way to look at it is that you should only use tools that consume air momentarily. One guy I work with didnt follow this advice and burned mine up by forcing it to run nonstop with a leaky air hose. Make sure your hose doesnt leak, its 1/2hp! I loved it so much I ordered another one right away. As long as you work within the limits of this tool you will be rewarded with something that is ultra portable, and so quiet you can stand right next to it and talk at normal volume. Ive never heard a compressor that is even remotely this quiet. In my business we have three different sizes of portable compressors for various applications, most of the time we grab this because the 23ga pin nailer and 18ga brad gun covers most of our installation needs. People are always amazed by the noise level. The live demonstrations of my installs have probably sold 50 of these. Youre welcome Senco.
