it lives up to its name. its quiet enough that you can have one ear against the motor whiles its running and talk on a cell phone with the other ear.

absolutely no maintenance done since new and it has 1500 hours.

fills from zero to full in under 5 minutes

3 da sanders at once will not phase this compressor.

you can literally watch the needle move when its filling up with air.

all 5 air lines are dry with no water at all.

need i say more? ask if you want to know anything in particular.

For what that compressor costs, I would expect all the above to be true. :shocking:

I would expect it to have coffee and breakfast waiting as well.

well, the lesser model of this one (the one we have) i think it only costed $6800 was probably the best investment for a 3 bay service shop.


this is for the people who gripe about the price and there is no difference.........

this compressor compared to our old snap on 80 gallon compressor, this one takes the cake at about $2000 more
