    • Lots of air, not obnoxiously loud, sturdy wheels and handles
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
I needed a compressor for my small workshop for air tools, nailers, blowoff, tire inflation and spray painting. I've had oil-less compressors in the past and although I liked their lower prices, I absolutely hated the terrible, high pitched screams they emitted when running. After looking around, I settled on a Makita, but I needed to choose between the Makita MAC700 Big Bore 2.0 HP Air Compressor, Makita MAC2400 Big Bore 2.5 HP Air Compressor and MAC5200. I decided that the MAC700 was too small for my needs. The MAC2400 was interesting, and I saw that a number of people had built carts to move it around and store hoses and miscellaneous parts. Then it struck me that for only $25 more, I could get the MAC5200, which came with more air, wheels and storage for hose and other bits. I've had the MAC5200 for about a month. It arrived well packaged and in perfect condition; none of the scratches and bent parts that some reviewers have noted. I was immediately impressed with the build quality. The collapsible handle is very heavy duty and the wheels are decent. After unpacking, I added the oil and did the 30 minute break-in with the tank valve open. The compressor is not what I would call quiet, but it makes far less noise than the oil-less compressors, and the pitch is lower. I am fortunate that I can put the compressor in a small room off my workshop. With the door closed, the compressor sound is muffled and I don't need hearing protection. If I were working in the same room with the compressor, I would use hearing protection. This is a heavy machine and it would be difficult to move around without the attached wheels and handles. For this reason alone, I am glad I went for the MAC5200 over the MAC2400. The MAC5200 puts out a decent amount of air. It takes 1 minute and 17 seconds to charge the tank to 120 PSI and an attached 3/8" X 50' hose to 90 PSI. Using an air gun with 3 1/2" nails, I can fire 15 - 20 shots before the compressor needs to recharge. So far, I've had enough air to do anything I wanted to do. I got a couple of accessories for the MAC5200. I needed some quick connects and bought the Milton M-Style Air Coupler and Plug Set - 1/4in. NPT, 7-Pcs., Model# S-212. These quick connects are well made, sturdy and work well. I also got a Campbell Hausfeld MP5143 Pistol Grip Blowgun and think it's great value for money. I'll update the review in the future, when I've had more time on it. ... show more

    • I give it a ten! A F@$?ING TEN!!!
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
The unit is very nice. Remarkably quiet when compared to other compressors which do not even compete on the same level as this unit. The unit is rather cumbersome and heavy. Loading it in and out of the bed of a truck could take some to task. Once on the ground the wheels provide adequate portability, and the collapsing handle is nice for storage purposes when not in use. As a whole the cage around the unit appears quite beefy and seems like it could take a decent beating and everyday usage. The big bore aspect and 6.8cfm makes this unit replenish the tank to 140 psi quickly. My only complaint is the right wheel on this unit was extremely bent upon delivery, but that is due to rough handling on FedEx part, not seller or Amazon. I will have to remove the wheel and replace or fix the issue myself with a trusty vice and some cold rolled steel. Waited long enough for its arrival and needed the compressor for a job to want to send it back for replacement all because of the bent wheel. I would recommend this unit to anyone needing to run a framing nailer driving 3 1/2” nails. Runs to guns quite nicely in moderate use situations. Haven’t stressed it with two guns used for roofing job where you might be popping guns rapidly, so I can’t speak to how it may handle that. If your looking for something to air up tires with around the house, it’s overkill. Yes I would recommend this unit to anyone who knows why and for what they need it. ... show more

    • This is a perfect size psi and cfm for my small work shop
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
For 28 years I had a cheap little 12 gallon compressor that worked but was loud and I was lucky to get 110 psi out of it. It finally died thank goodness. I was looking for something that I could use with a plasma cutter but didn't want a huge 60 gal shop 220v loud ass compressor. I found this beauty and it's not the perfect compressor for a plasma cutter but it will deliver good working times and is perfect for everything else I need. Smallish and still somewhat portable, this thing is quiet and powerful and very well made. I've had a Makita circular saw that is well used for the last 25 years and it still works like new after I put a new cord on it. Makita stuff is well made. ... show more

    • First Impression - Shipping is Risky
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
First Impressions - Just Received Today 1. Mega Props to Amazon - $4 for overnight shipping with Amazon Prime 2. Box was relatively undamaged but arrived upside down and unit almost pushed through flimsy box. I do believe overnight shipping reduces the possibility of this unit being damaged becuase the box isnt transferred as much. I thing if this unit was offloaded and onloaded one more time it would have pushed through the box. Shipping is highly risky in the crappy cardboard box. 3. Wheels were good and appeared upgraded and solid 4. Oil was in separate sealed pouch but unit was still coated in oil (probably from factory test) it was everywhere. 5. Tank was scuffed and the handles that you wrap air hose around had pushed against the tank so hard it tore the rubber tips and caused the scuffing...just cosmetic but very close to denting the tank and breaking off the handles. 6. Unit was quieter than what I was expecting but overall is on the louder side and you have to raise your voice (not quit a yell) to have a conversation. 7. Unit was ok to lift but could easily mess up your back if you aren't careful. 8. Put in oil and ran unit open for 20 minutes and it was good and built up pressure quickly after valve was closed. I will update more but be very very careful about shipping this unit, as stated in many previous posts. If you can find it locally get it....most complaints on this unit are based on damage from shipping ... show more

    • Makita Delivers a solid Compressor
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
I purchased this compressor as a replacement for a 26Gal 5HP husky I had. There was nothing wrong with the Husky it was simply that my space could not accommodate it. I intended to use this as a homeowner who always has a project and as someone who uses compressed air for multiple purposes. I did alot of research and narrowed it down to either the MAC5200 or the DeWalt D55146. I decided on the Makita because of the lower price and the oil lubricated pump. The reason oil lubrication was important is because of the noise factor, which brings me to my first complaint, the NOISE. The noise from this compressor, while not as bad as an oil free is significantly louder than the bigger 5hp Husky i had previously. Although noise is always rated in decibels, most people cant relate that to everyday sound. I will use what i call yelling level, if you can talk normally over the device it is quiet, if you have to yell at someone 2 feet away its loud. This compressor leans more toward the latter. Its not the worst but its not like a normal quiet oil lubricated pump. This is not something that would prevent me from buying it again its just worth mentioning that the "quiet" as advertised is not all that quiet. Second is the CFM. Rated at 6.5 CFM @ 90psi I would say is optimistic. My old Husky was 5.9 @ 90 and it held its pressure longer without a doubt, perhaps this is because of the bigger tank but from what i understand CFM is CFM, 6.5 should be greater than 5.9, right? Having said all that the compressor arrived on time and without any damage. I signed up for Amazon prime so it came in two days for free which is insane. When FedEx arrived i had to help the woman unload it because it was too heavy for her to handle alone. FYI the term "portable" refers more to the wheels not the weight (86lbs). All said and done this thing is a good compressor that seems to be built very solid and well thought out. This Makita fills up faster than most small compressors i have seen in the past. The fold down handle works well and the small integrated storage compartment is a useful addition for blow gun storage or other small accessories. The handle also incorporates a hose wrap and there is small hooks on the side to wind the power cord around which is nice so its not getting caught or having to be wrapped around the tank and such. Overall I am happy with this purchase and would say it is a good buy. ... show more

    • Great compressor for Plasma Cutter
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
I bought the Makita, MAC5200 Air Compressor in May, 2012. I bought it so I could use it with an Eastwood Versa-Cut plasma cutter. (requires 5-7 CFM @85 PSI). I'd hoped to get a compressor for around $100. There are a lot out there at that price, but none of them could handle the requirements of the smallest plasma cutters. This one does the job perfectly. This is oil lubricated, which makes for quieter operation, and I am led to believe a more efficient and longer lasting compressor. I spent just about as much on the compressor as I did on the plasma cutter, but I'm very pleased with the way the equipment works together. Considering that I have a really nice compressor and an excellent plasma cutter including all necessary accessories for both, all for under $900 delivered . . . I'm a pretty happy guy. It arrived in short order, quicker than expected. Easy to get from the box to running order. I bought the 50 ft. air hose and a small accessory kit. I did have to use the plumbers tape provided in the tool kit at the connectors. Still need to do a little adjusting in that area, but it works really well. The compressor is easy to roll from one location to the other, and it looks really nice, which makes no significant difference in purchasing it, but it's a nice bonus. I've used it in the garage at times, with the door open of course. It's not terribly noisy, but not my favorite way to use it. Mostly I run it off an outside outlet about 30 feet from where I do my cutting and welding. It makes noise, to be sure, but not terrible and none of my neighbors have complained. I live in a suburban neighborhood. ... show more

I was stunned to see the UPS man at my door at 10:15 am today (Monday morning) already delivering my MAC5200. WTF? I just ordered it what seemed like a few hours ago (Saturday evening). Talk about fast shipping. I wondered how they got it here so quickly, so I checked the tracking info and noticed it was shipped from MD, only one state away from me here in VA. In any event, I'm blown (no pun intended) away at the speed in which Amazon completed and delivered my order. Right after ordering, it basically went straight onto a UPS truck. That's pretty impressive considering the size and weight of this thing. I was a bit worried at first because the box had arrived a little beat up and torn. However, after a thorough inspection, there appears to be no damage anywhere to the unit. My one gripe is that they need to work on the sturdiness of the box. Also, the box would have been more manageable if there were heavy-duty handle cut-outs. I didn't see how the guy managed to carry it to my front porch, but I did notice the box was starting to fall apart. Anyway, I have yet to run and break the unit in, but judging by the quality craftsmanship, it appears that this machine will last me a lifetime (knock on wood). This is probably more compressor than I'll ever need, but I wanted to be sure I'd have something powerful enough to allow me to winterize my underground sprinkler system each year, which incidentally costs me about $50 per year to have someone else do. Therefore, after seven winterizations this beast will have paid for itself. Other than that, I really only plan to use it for air in the tires and small projects around the house. My compressor came with what appear to be some fairly heavy-duty and solid rubber wheels. At first glance, it looks like there's still a tiny bit more room for improvement with the wheels, as they seem to be just slightly out of alignment when wheeling it around (no biggie). After beating my head against the wall in deliberation, in the end, I elected to step up to the MAC5200 over it's little brother, the MAC2400. What put me over the edge was the wheels (greater portability), more HP & CFM, a bigger tank, and a folding handle. For me, it was well worth spending the extra fifty bucks or so to upgrade from the MAC2400 to the MAC5200. I'm really impressed with the look and feel; it's solid and heavy-duty, and built like a freaking tank. Even though I have yet to use it, I'm confident this compressor will surpass my needs and expectations. UPDATE I: I just added 21 photos to the gallery. Enjoy! UPDATE II: I broke the machine in and successfully winterized my underground (well-water) sprinkler system with no problems whatsoever. I bought this hose: GoodYear 045 3/8-Inch-by-50-Feet Safety Yellow Rubber Hose 3/8 -Inch by 50-Feet 250 PSI With 1/4-Inch Ends and this tire gauge: Milton S506 Dual Head Inflator Gauge with 12" Air Hose and couldn't be happier. ... show more

    • Junk. Mine didn’t work out of the box and didn’t last a week before it stopped again.
Style: MAC5200 air compressor
For the price of this compressor it should’ve been a great working machine. But right out of the box the check valve didn’t work. I had to take it apart and clean it out as it had a bunch of debris keeping it from holding the back pressure. Then after four days of use, it would run for a little while and then kick the internal breaker off, it’s really loud and got really hot. It had great pressure, but with all the other issues, I returned it and went to Harbor Freight and bought a better one along with a ton of accessories for less than this one was. I’ve been using the Harbor Freight one for two months now every single day up to 12 hours a day and it hasn’t given me a bit of trouble. ... show more
