  • On the Air
Now I have air again. My old, very old, compressor bit the dust so I had to get a new one. I agonized over what one to get and am glad I decided to get this one. The D55168 has a larger capacity tank than my old one and it is way quieter, not silent but noticeably less annoying more than volume it is more of a low rumble than a high pitched fingernails on a blackboard annoying sound as my old one. The fact that it pumps up to 200 pounds is a plus. The few things I really don't like about it are as follows: The tank drain is on the very bottom, like on the floor side under the tank the only way to access it it to lay the whole compressor down. This may not be an issue to folks younger than I without a bum back and knees. Thee is only ONE air outlet, my old compressor had two and I am spoiled I had one port to hook up to my machines and one free to use for blowing stuff or during nice weather I ran one line out the window so I could work out on the patio and in the shop without switching connections, real handy. I fixed this by adding a brass multi-port block, sure it works but now something else to get tangled up in in my crowded shop. Not deal killers for sure but just my gripes, and that ain't much this machine if it holds up as long as my old one is a good buy and a nice unit. Going on two months use and I can at this point recommend this unit, I think they mostly are the same, you either get a good one and are happy or if it sucks instead of blowing you can be irate. Good Luck.... ... show more

  • Arrived in good shape, and more quiet than expected
I was concerned about the unit getting here in decent shape, since a few recent reviewers have mentioned that it was pretty beat up on delivery, but it arrived in pristine condition, the box barely even dirty (I posted a picture in the Customer Images). It also runs much more quiet than I thought it would. I previously bought a 12 gal 125 psi Craftsman several years ago which was considerably louder and failed after one use (granted, the Craftsman is at a $160 price point, and this one is more like $300+). I plugged it in, turned it on, and it pressurized to 210 psi relatively quickly. Somewhere, someone mentioned that it needs to be broken in by running it for 15 minutes with the drain valve fully open, and indeed there is a sticker around the power plug that says to follow the break-in procedure spelled out in the manual before use; however, there is no break-in procedure in the manual. I called DeWALT, and found that the newer versions of the pump don't require break-in (mine is a rev 5, or type as they call it) - only the first revision (type 1) requires the procedure, though they still continue to install the power cords with the sticker attached. Also, in this rev, the drain valve is more of a quarter-turn stopcock - it's not super convenient to get to, but this style of valve is at least easy to actuate and you only need to use it once a day, so it's really not that big of a deal. I know I just got it, but I really like the unit, so I'll give it 5 stars, but I'll update this if anything funny happens in long-term use. Update 08/17/2020: Almost 8 years in and it's still going strong with occasional use, though I've forgotten to depressurize it more times than I'm willing to admit. I'm updating this since one part just broke, however - the compressor was clearly leaking from somewhere, and when I removed the cover, it was pretty obvious that it was coming from the pressure switch. Thankfully, it's a pretty cheap and easily replaced part. I bought the replacement part from toolservicenet (P/N N003990) and a little over twenty dollars later including shipping I was back in business! ... show more

  • First day, so far so good!
So I received this compressor today at the shop. My first impression on the unit was the huge box it arrived in, I was scared this unit was going to be huge! Thankfully though it is not, it is actually on the small side but don't let that fool you, it holds tons of air! Pros: Compact size, plus higher pressure means it has a similar capacity to compressors that take up twice the space! Regulator is easy to adjust and seems to work well. Unit is on the silent side, comparable to a shop vac style vacuum. Seems to provide good airflow, runs my IR 2135QTIMax impact just fine. Holds plenty of air to run my Milton blow gun. Very well packaged for shipping! Arrived without damage. Wheels roll very nicely and are unpoppable, also big enough to roll over hoses/wires/small junk. Cons: Out of the box the crimped on hose connector leading to the pressure switch had a leak. I fixed it by using cv joint crimpers to crimp it to the proper tension Cord is very thick and stiff, it actually made me worry about damaging the socket it is plugged in to. Mine does not say emglo under the dewalt logo, however I don't know if I got a newer or older unit. Regulator adjustment knob feels a bit cheap. In summary I am very pleased with my purchase, just make sure you spray soapy water on all the connections if you're like me and want a leak free unit that won't cycle when not in use. Also I would suggest a good air/water separator after the regulator due to the massive pressure drop of a 200 psi compressor. The temperature change drops almost all the moisture out of the air it seems! ... show more
