Couldn't pass this up!!!
Style: Compressor
Purchased from Amazon as a one day deal. After several months of research and even holding out past Black Friday, I am very pleased with this so far. $120 for the compressor was a steal. Product was delivered on time and in good condition as expected. Setup was fairly straightforward, needed to do some research regarding fittings myself. The compressor comes ready to go if you already have the correct fittings which I didn't have. It requires 1/4 NPT fittings and ended up getting middle of the road Husky accessory kit from HD. I also purchased a Husky 3/8 100ft PVC hose as well. The hose takes the 1/4 NPT fittings(most common) as well. After reading other reviews, I purchased yellow Teflon(for gases apparently) and have applied it to all the threads of the kit and even to the (J) part of the DeWalt compressor, as some have stated this part leaks. Mine did not, but figured I might as well to eliminate this in the future. Read the manual and started the compressor right up. It cut off at 165-170psi. Used it intially to fill tires on my vehicle. The compressor cut in at 130-135psi as expected. Fills up fast from empty and doesn't take long from 135psi obviously. I left it filled and after 6hrs or so, had lost about 15psi(150psi overall). It's my first compressor so I'm not sure if that amount of loss is normal, but this is why I chose to Teflon the threads (J) part of compressor. Have not tested if it is still losing that minimal amount of psi after the new Teflon, but will update when I do. It's recommended you drain after every use and that is pretty straight forward as well, just twist the release and let it run. Close the valve when it's done. As for noise, I have to say I'm very impressed. Using my Father's 20gal Craftsman in the past, this is definitely quieter, although that was a much larger tank, more Horsepower, and obviously for my serious applications. Planning to use this as a small shop compressor (tires, nail guns, etc.), I'm comfortable saying after all the reviews I've read, this will handle those tasks more than adequately. The build quality seems on par for it's price point. You obviously do pay a little bit more for the DeWalt name, but I must admit this compressor so far is worth it. For an extra $20 I like knowing that this comes from a very reputable company. Overall yes, I would recommend this to every DIYer/weekend warrior/hobbyist. It won't disappoint you as long you have reasonable expectations regarding its capabilities and limitations. ... show more

A Powerhouse for Your Workshop and home
Style: Compressor
As someone who's constantly tackling various projects around the house, I've gone through my fair share of tools, but the DEWALT 6 Gallon Compressor has quickly risen to the top of my favorites list. This unit, which comes in at a manageable 30 pounds, is a cinch to move around, making it incredibly convenient for both indoor and outdoor tasks. The compressor is designed to handle a variety of uses, from drilling and air brushing to spraying and nailing, without breaking a sweat. The 165 max PSI and 2.6 SCFM at 90 PSI pump mean you get long run times and quick recovery, which is crucial when you're in the middle of a project. Plus, the high-efficiency motor ensures that even in cold weather or when using an extension cord, start-up is hassle-free. I really appreciate the oil-free feature of this compressor, which equates to virtually no maintenance on my part—a huge plus for any busy DIYer. And with a 6-gallon capacity, I can work longer without having to stop and refill. Despite its power, the DEWALT compressor operates at a noise level of 75.5 dB, which is relatively quiet for such a robust tool. It's clear that DEWALT has put thought into the design, with a high flow regulator and couplers that maximize air tool performance, and a console cover that not only protects the controls but is also removable for easy repair. The addition of two universal couplers is fantastic for double teaming the fries and crumbs that fell between the seats in the car, as it can easily support two users. The ball drain valve is another feature I didn't know I needed, but it makes tank draining quick and effortless. Overall, the DEWALT 6 Gallon Compressor is a solid, reliable tool that's well-suited for anyone from the casual DIYer to the more serious home renovator. It's powerful, easy to use, and with DEWALT's reputation for durability, I expect to be using this compressor for many years to come. ... show more

Highly Rated, Dependable
Style: Compressor
My old clunky compressor of 30 years finally died. I wanted a new one that was portable, but still strong enough to use for larger jobs not jus inflate tires and balls. The reviews on this one was good so that's what I chose. Great decision! It's small enough to transport in the suv if I need to, and large enough to spray paint my 2 story house. I love the size, weight, strong motor, 2 hose hookups, and ease of use, Oh! and it is not all that loud. ... show more

Good and Small Compressor That Is Able to Tackle Most Jobs
Style: Compressor
I've been using this Dewalt (DWFP55126) 165 PSI, 6 gallon, pancake air compressor weekly for almost a year. The One I have has the yellow handle and the two white faced needle gauges. Apparently now there is a lower quality version 2 out there. My first impression when taking this out of the box was not the best. The compressor is not snug to the tank. There is some play. Every time you pick it up by the handle there is a slight shift and a thud. It moves maybe a 1/4", but it's enough to give you that shock feeling the tank is about to fall off. I almost thought about exchanging it, but everything else with the unit was fine and didn't want to go through the hassle of back/forth shipping. The unit overall is pretty good. I like the built in cord holder, regulator, two outlets, dual gauges, large rubber feet, and quarter turn (presumably brass ball valve) drain valve. This is overkill for my regular usage which is to keep tire pressures on point weekly. But I wanted a unit capable of 150 PSI with at least a 5 gallon tank for any time that I may need it around the garage or for a home project. My motivating factor in purchasing this unit was to replace my Porter Cable C2002 which has nearly identical specs to this Dewalt one. It was a couple of years past the printed tank expiration date and was extremely loud. I've been using Porter Cable C2002 air compressors for years at work and at home, and I have been very happy with their quality and performance. The only things that I wanted improved upon from the Porter Cable C2002 was the noise level, the screw type drain valve, and better rubber feet. The Dewalt DWFP55126 seemed to be the solution. It has a noise rating of 75.5 dBA compared to Porter Cable's 82 dBA, better rubber feet, and a better drain valve. Sadly I wish I had ponied up more and gone with one of the ultra quiet air compressors like the ones from Campbell Hausfeld, California Air Tools, or Stealth that are rated at only 60-68 dBA, but at the time it was tough to justify spending double the price to save 10 dBA. Now I am starting to think the lower dBA would have been money well spent on something that I will be using weekly for years to come. ... show more
