I’m new to airbrushing so I was looking for a quiet, smaller version of my garage compressor, that could be used indoors, and was reasonably priced.It’s early days, but so far I’m very impressed by the performance of this compressor.What I like: 1. It REALLY is quiet. 2. Compact size. 3. Mechanical pressure release valve on the tank. 4. Fitted with a regulator/water filter 5. Fan cooled motor 6. Solid build 7. Good consistent air delivery (so far I haven’t had to wait for compressor to catch up with my usage)What could have been better: 1. Tank drain valve was stupidly tight. 2. The regulator was bleeding air and required “fixing” (Very easy. No tools required).Before I fixed the regulator the machine wouldn’t reach it’s cut off pressure (subsequently tested at 4 bar), and after about 20 mins it did get a bit hot. Nothing excessive, just don’t expect the fan to keep the unit completely cool. Since fixing the regulator it hasn’t reach the same temperature.

I used this compressor for an airbrush to change the colour of my corner suite. The paint used was special water based leather paint as well as using it for the top spirit based top coat/sealant.It worked well and was easy to set at the pressure that I wanted it to run at.The only downside was I had to source an adapter to connect my airbrush to it as the airbrush hose was a smaller size than the outlet connector but this was probably an issue with my airbrush and not the compressor.It ran quietly and automatically stop and started to maintain the set pressure. I was pleased with the results.

A few reviews here complain of this air compressor overheating if run continuously for 20 minutes which is entirely correct, it will overheat if run continuously because it was not designed to do so.I bought this to replace a compressor I had owned about 10 years that was virtually identical this unit but without the reserve tank, and as long as you held the airbrush spray button down the motor would run, it was not over noisy but the idea of a reserve tank holding 3 litres seemed a good idea.It is, if like myself you spray a small area at a time on 1/35 tanks etc you can mostly use the your air-brush from the stored air with the motor kicking in briefly and occasionally to keep the reserve tank topped up which is nice, much less noise.If you do larger models such as 1/16 tanks which I also do you will exhaust the reserve 3 litres quite quickly and the motor will be running more often.Even on large 1/16 kits I have never had this compressor shut down due to overheating but these things do get hot to the touch which can seem alarming but is quite normal.It has plenty of safety features such as a thermal cut-out and comes with. a moisture trap which is essential to avoid disappointment when finishing a model and a great splat of water shoots from the gun and ruins it.Upon first starting I was indeed impressed at how quiet it was but I am sure that the 2nd time I started it, it was a bit noisier, a slight metallic rattle that had not been there there initially.In hindsight I wish I had checked it with a decibel meter then I would be sure, it is not distracting and was not worth returning it but I am fairly sure that something changed.I mainly use a Harder & Steenbeck air-brush at about 15 psi and this runs perfectly, no surging or loss of pressure, it keeps a continuous smooth air flow going for even paint application.I have probably used it for about 100 hours in total by now and everything is still fine, any increased noise has not got worse and of course I could be wrong anyway, maybe my ears cleared a bit the 2nd time running.I paid £79.99 in 03/23 which was a very good price, it will never be as good as an Iwata or other similar top end models but it is a quarter of the price yet I would still recommend it for its intended purpose which is small scale air-brushing, nail art etc.Excellent little compressor and always remember to drain the tank after use to prevent internal rust forming in the tank.

Fantastic piece of kit set it all up and does just what it says on the tin so to speak,Highly delighted with it and would certainly recommend.

I have only used it twice, but it does the job.Runs for a while, tops the tank up, stops and only starts again when needed.Not very loud, as far as compressors go.Appears to provide a constant air flow.Adjustable pressure with locking motion is nice.Includes a moisture trap and manual pressure release on the tank.A little rough around the edges but hey, it was cheap for a compressor with a tank.

Can’t complain, especially for the price. You can spray for some time at a consistent pressure, before the compressor reactivates, making it a very quiet unit to use for most of the time. Even when active, it’s not that loud.
