I used for three hours straight without a hiccup. I love this compressor. Works well and very great quality for the price. My only complaint is that it is advertised to come with a hose but it did not. Still giving 5 stars.

Compressor does what it advertises. Finally can paint models without ruining them. Should have bought a lot sooner.

This compressor is one of the standards for a small compressor airbrushing. Because of the storage cylinder "pressure bumps" when the compressor turns on are smooth rather than disruptive. The compressor also has a reasonable noise level.

I needed a compressor to go along with my Iwata airbrush. I planned to build models inside my apartment as a hobby and did not want to disturb my roommates.It was the perfect match price wise and cost.It's very quiet at 45 decibels, very portable, and ready to go right out of the box.I was impressed by the heavy duty construction and chrome plating.

This is definitely not a 47db unit. More around 70db. That being said, the pressure is good and stable.The unit is probably leaky as the compressor starts after a while even if no pressure is taken during that time.The provided hose is really small and does not allow to keep the unit away and making my immediate sound level much lower.But for the asked price I cannot complain.

Haven't used it yet, but I did test it without paint. Runs smooth & quiet, good quality all around. Hose that is included is good quality too. Packaged very well, arrived a bit earlier than expected (always a good thing). Price was very good too (Black Fri approx $90)

What a great little compressor! I have had it a few days, I have used it 4 or 5 times. This little thing met all my expectations and then some. I bought it because of the low noise factor and it sure is quiet. When I'm running the fan in my spray booth I don't even know when it kicks on. It's well built, solid, easy to use right out of the box/adjust etc. The air flow is consistent and the tank is a nice factor when I'm not using my hub. The guarantee is assuring, but from what I've experienced so far, I won't need it.

Difficult for me to understand the negative reviews over this compressor setup. My experience has been nothing but positive. I am a scale model builder and this compressor was purchased for the painting of models. I purchased it to replace my aging but still working Badger tankless compressor. First, the compressor setup is of VERY good quality and comes fully assembled ready to use right out of the box. The anodized blue finish on the compressor and black on the air tank was flawless. All assembly points and possible air leak points were tightly sealed. The compressor rapidly filled the tank and MOST impressive was that even at 40lb PSI the compressor could keep up without a drop in pressure even after the tank was depleted. (I never use over 40 lbs. when painting.) At lower pressures around 30 PSI the compressor rapidly refilled the tank and shut off indicating that it was easily keeping up with the air loss in the tank. The pressure regulator comes fitted with the water separator all tightly sealed with a push button drain valve on the bottom making emptying of catch bottle simple and easy. As far as noise, it was a bit more quiet than my old Badger. It gets a bit louder when the tank is at nearly full pressure (which most compressors tend to do) but still quiet enough to not be in the least bit obtrusive. I don't think I could give ay compressor a 5 star rating unless I could barely hear it run or it came in a sound proof enclosure. I WOULD NOT recommend this compressor for a beginner. A beginner would not need this type of compressor to learn how to air brush. Start with air cans and move up. Instructions are minimal maybe with the idea that the purchaser has experience with this type of compressor. Personally, I barely looked at them because I didn't need them. But read them for the purpose of this review. I noticed in some reviews where people said the air pressure adjustment didn't work. Maybe because they didn't know that the adjustment knob needs to be unlocked first by pulling it up. THIS IS clearly indicated in the instruction manual. (which is essentially only 4 pages) IMPORTANT!: This compressor does come with a short 6 ft. hose but it is designed for MASTER airbrushes ONLY. YOU MUST BUY HOSE ADAPTERS FOR OTHER BRANDS OF AIR BRUSHES! I use Paasche and Badger and needed to buy adapters for both. (Available here on Amazon) I do not own an Iwata (yet) so no idea about those. To summarize, IMO this is a fine air brush compressor and I find the price to be quite reasonable. I have seen similar compressors priced at around $300 and bought this after some minor research and deciding it was worth taking a shot. To say the least, I am extremely pleased with this purchase and hopefully look forward to many years of use.

Works fine bit once hot it will lock up. The pressure relief valve is electromagnetic and once it gets hot it weakens and then the compressor stops until pressure drops enough for it to work. Put a fan on it or switch the electromagnetic switch for pneumatic one and problem solved. Only other complaint is the intake filter screens are poorly made and very little air passes through them so the unit works harder than it should. Again easy fix but annoying. Overall if you're somewhat handy at troubleshooting this is fine but unnecessary. My single cylinder unit keeps up and works just as well and is whisper quiet compared to the 4 banger. I'd only recommend it if you cant just use a full size compressor bc of noise or space. Otherwise no real value here aside from being kind of cool design but poor execution lol

This is a good choice for an airbrush compressor as far as air power, convenience and size. I really wanted to love this compressor, I researched reasonably priced, "quiet" airbrush compressors and the reviews convinced me this was it. I was expecting a nice dull hum, but in addition, it had a metallic rattle that got more pronounced as it filled up. I compared it side by side with a 1/2 hp Harbor Freight compressor and found it to be more disturbing due to the metallic sound, the hum factor was about equal. It is very possible I got a bad one and a replacement might have been just the trick but I didn't want to take the chance.. It Is a good compressor function wise, that's why I gave it 4 stars, just too noisy to sit next to while doing my artwork. I returned it ========
