    • Merry Punktiss Christmas!
Style: 1 Gallon, Steel Tank Size: 1 Gallon Color: Silver
Great design, nothing sticks out, plenty light for one arm. I’ve run 15ga and 18ga nailers, a crown stapler and inflated some car tires. Quieter than my 6 gallon, shop compressor is Husky silent and is obviously defeated by Cali air tools. If you’re new to the maker, I’ve had nothing but awesome experiences. I’ve got an ultra quiet 6 gallon as my first and talk about a champ. Still running great and I was treating my machines like a barbarian. Like a child preparing a home for a captured animal. Well intentioned but Jesus Christ what are you thinking. Anyway. If this wasn’t Amazon gift cards I’d have used their website to help them out. Super happy, this is exactly the tiny compressor I should have bought. ... show more

    • Light, fast and quiet
Style: 1 Gallon, Steel Tank Size: 1 Gallon Color: Silver
May, I love this thing. I’m 65 this year, so decided to downsize since I no longer need a $400 air compressor taking up real estate on the floor in my garage. And the smaller compressor I had on my storage shelf was obnoxiously loud and about 10 pounds heavier than this one. So I ordered this smaller compressor and gifted the other two to my kids, who were always relying on me to air up their tires. Now they can handle that chore on their own. Before I gave those two away, though, I waited until this compressor arrived to test it out: As promised, it’s very quiet. Two people can carry on a normal conversation standing right in front of it. You won’t need hearing protection. Nice. Sitting in the garage, the 15 gallon DeWalt I gave my son would wake me up in the middle of the night from the other end of the house if I forgot to unplug it. I was afraid it would wake the neighbors and violate some city noise regulation it was so loud. The CA compressor is lighter than my 2 gallon portable compressor, as I would expect.. I no longer have to dread picking it up to carry it to the job location around the house. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the female air socket on the compressor was operable with one hand. Kudos to California Air Tools for adding that. The fit and finish are more than satisfactory. I could find nothing to complain about. I comes with the plastic air filter detached. So I installed that, plugged it in and the compressor quickly and quietly charged right up. I tested my small air nailers, up to the 18 gage unit. You shoot two or three nails and it kicks on for a few seconds, but you should expect that with a 1 gallon compressor. For a homeowner doing small jobs around the house, I would think this would work out just fine. It even runs my small palm nailer, which I use a lot for nailing jobs where it’s difficult to swing a hammer. It this continues to operate as it did today, I have no problem rating it 5 stars. Best compressor I’ve ever owned for its size. ... show more

    • Light weight and only 75DB. Runs all of my pneumatic carpentry tools
Style: 1 Gallon, Steel Tank Size: 1 Gallon Color: Silver
My voice in a normal conversational tone is 80DB. This CAT-1P1060S runs at 75DB, which is more than the advertised 56DB. Honestly, I did not believe the 56DB claim as my new 17 seer heat pump fan in my house makes 65DB and it is not loud at all so I doubted this compressor would be more quiet than my HVAC fan motor. Being that it is quieter than the spoken voice I am thrilled. I always hated the traditional pancake compressors that run close to 100DB on a good day as they make a work site louder than it needed to be. What I used to do is run my loud mechanic's compressor I have on my 2003 7.3L diesel F350 service truck to power my carpentry air tools, but that obviously used diesel at $3.50/gallon and I had to run a 150' to 200' long 3/8" air line to get the air inside the house where I needed it. With this compressor, I enjoy leaving Betsy (my truck's name) in the driveway turned off and I simply grab this tiny CA compressor. It is super light, which is very nice! It is compact so I can stow it inside my behind-the-cab truck box with plenty of room for other tools so it is always ready to use. On job sites without power, (which are few and far between) I use my 4000w pure sine wave inverter that is wired to my truck's electrical system, which requires I run the engine to prevent dead batteries (7.3 diesels needs gobs of battery power to start). I just use a 100' or 200' long 12AWG extension cord from the inverter to the job site with a short 50' long 3/8" pneumatic hose in the area I am working. I only use my truck compressor now to run my mechanic's tools such as impact guns and the like as they require tons of air supply, much more than any carpentry tool will ever need. I absolutely love this California CAT-1P1060S compressor. ... show more

    • This Little Guy is Truly Quiet

Review Image by Philscbx
He takes a spot unseen next to carry on luggage, in the bedroom to assist cleaning of electronics, PS4, and 52" Samsung, to dust impacted phone sound and charge ports... No one else in the home has a clue it's running. The next perfect option now is a 1 Gallon Aluminum Tank to quickly fill up a low tire On anyone's vehicle in the lot, vs ruining it, having a blow out. Finding a airhose when needed to fill a low tire is high risk of overheating it. If forced to travel any distance, keep speed below 35mph. As certified tech for auto dealers, now retired, exploded blows are always low airpressure caused even in winter. He's a great tool for minor service for any vehicle, blowing out filters, giving them a second life, to cleaning details of interior, along with wet vac. Getting at hard to reach no touch removing dust around switches and console screens, to vents. It's too easy scratched. Easily unplug sunroof and AC drains that end up a costly mess of corrosion. In two seconds, easily unplug a stubborn slow sink or tub drain. Make easy adaptor with swimming foam tube worm for kids, cut a piece a foot long, place one end over drain, blast air into other end sealed off with tape with 30psi, clogged drain is history. If compressor is placed on small two wheel hand truck, it can be moved easy to where it's needed. So Hats off to the Mfg for such a quality quiet well made compact machine... and Amazon making it possible. Cheers ... show more
