Metabo HPT Quiet Air Compressor, Portable 1 Gallon Oil-Free Air Compressor, Ultra-Quiet Operation at 59 dB, Universal Quick Coupler for Fast Tool Changes, Compact and Lightweight, EC28M

Extremely quiet and light weight. Perfect for small jobs

Love this compressor! I use it in my Physics class and it’s very quiet

Extremely nice compressor, but simply does not supply enough air for almost any application. Maybe for a nail gun or some kind of stapler but it has about one second reserve for an air tool or blow gun. Super quiet and well made though.

There are better quiet compressors that cost significantly more. But that's the rub. They cost a lot more. For the money it's very good. I run it into a 10 gal. auxiliary air tank fitted with an Air Adjustment Valve so it keeps up just fine and regulates the feed for a single nail gun. I wouldn't have bought it if I didn't already have the extra tank. I bought it for ease of lifting and noise level. It is fantastically light and quiet and produces an impressive volume of air for its size. I'm suspect of its durability

I’ll never ever, ever buy a non-quiet compressor again. You can be standing right next to it running and have a conversation with someone-indoors even! This one won’t win any awards for capacity but it’s solid, works well, and if your need for a compressor is minimal (like me), this is a perfect fit. Small footprint too.

Super out-of-the-box experience. Everything set to go, just plug it in. True to their word on quiet, charges up quickly. All in all a real deal.

Looked like a good unit when it arrived: brand new, nice construction. Plugged it in and turned it on and it started up: runs real quiet and I'm initially very happy. It gets up to 125psi, and a valve starts venting; turns out there's a valve that opens when you turn the unit off such that the unit will bleed out when it's off and in storage. I guess that's good, but it's not supposed to vent when the unit is on. So I let the unit bleed out, then I turn it back on and it refuses to start. Now I see that the on-board circuit breaker has tripped. I reset it, it hums for a bit, then trips again. Reset it again, and this time it kicks on and stops at 125PSI; no venting this time. I bleed out some air to see when the unit will kick on again, and it doesn't kick on at all. Turns out the breaker has tripped again. OK, so there's issues, but theres this card in the box that says "STOP: DO NOT RETURN this compressor to the retail store. If you have technical issues or concerns, please call us at this number...." So I call. I get connected to some woman who is confused that I would be calling, as they only deal with big retailers. I try to get support by calling the number that Amazon tells me to call, and I get the same response. Like, What? This is such an epic fail on Metabo's part, it makes me wonder what else they screw up. If I could give less than 1 star, I would.

I bought this compressor for its portability and wow am I satisfied. It runs my finishing nail gun just fine. It’s also surprisingly quiet, you can easily have a conversation while standing right next to it when it’s running. The portability is so nice taking it from room to room is no issue. The build quality seems good, I expect to get years of service from it.
