So far we think it's a great unit at a great price. Can't say how long they will last as the oldest one we have has only been in service for 11 month's but we have had no problems whatsoever with the units. We have purchaced several of these compressors over the last year, we use them to power low energy door opener systems. They are light, small and very quiet as compared to other low cost compressors we have used in the past.
So this baby stays at the saw stand and use it for popping miters together with 23 ga pinners, cleats and backing blocks its size, weight and decibels are lovely after years of lugging pancakes and double hotdogs around, and I'm not talking about lunch. very few fastners showing). Good little compressor, have had it for 2 years now, no problems with heavy usage, can't beat it for punch out work for trim and cabinets. I don't shoot alot of brads as most of my work is with prefinished material, (I.E.
Unfortunately, the start up pressure was too low - 70lbs, so when the tank was drawn down my brads and pin nails did not seat fully. It has worked flawlessly, runs all my nail guns. I had bought a small, no name compressor from costco with a too good to be true price of $60.
I've been a fan of Senco products for some time and decided to look for one locally which ran about $219. This is a light to medium duty, light weight compressor that is perfect for smaller finishing jobs. Bought it through Amazon for about half.
My larger compressor is a little heavy for smaller jobs, so I wanted to pick up a smaller compressor for finishing the trim work on our recent kitchen remodel. Took it back and started to think about other options.My hardwood flooring contractor had used the Senco PC1010 and told me it did a great job for running their Senco finished nailer. Awesome.
Said it would fill tires and run brad nailers. Not good.
I run an airbrush at about 50psi and have not had any issues with this little dynamo. It's very compact, light weight and quiet. I needed a lightweight workhorse for airbrushing applications. This is by far the best unit I've worked with.
air nailers. We are a glazing contractor and do a lot of wood window repair and use 18 ga. This is the best compressor made. My men fight over the two that I own.
