California Air Tools15020C Powerful 2.0 HP Ultra Quiet and Oil-Free Air Compressor with Wheels, 15 Gallon Tank Capacity, 70 dB Noise Level, Electric, Portable

I had been shopping for a new compressor for a while. I bought my Campbell-Hausfeld 20 gallon compressor in 2016 and never liked it. Slow to fill and noisy as heck. Finally a catastrophic failure in the pump forced my hand to buy a new air compressor. The California Air Tools line caught my attention for their noise rating. After comparing as many compressors as I could, I decided on the 15020C. On arrival I fired it up and did a leak test with soap and water. No issues, so I assembled it the rest of the way. I have been using it for 3 weeks and am pleased with the tank recovery and especially with the low noise.Though I am happy, the product was not perfect. I needed a horizontal compressor for the space I had available. I would have preferred a 20 gallon tank, but California does not make a horizontal thank that size.The one assembly issue I had was when installing the wheels, the plastic where the axle goes through the wheel was about 1/16" too thick. When the axle nut was tightened the wheel would not turn. I used a router bit in my drill press and skinnied the wheel hub by about 1/16" and now I can take my compressor for a walk any time I want. Though it will likely stay in its cabinet.On the pre-assembly test run I thought the decibels were higher than promised. When I installed the air intake filters, the noise came down to the level I expected.I'm happy. Buy one if you need one.

Amazingly quiet. I currently use it to support a small 3 HP CNC mill. (SYIL X5 Combo)

This is my third CAT compressor, and I love all three of them. Very quiet, efficient, enough pressure to fill 120 psi cycling tires through a forty foot hose. Easy to drain. No leaks as received. My only complaint about this compressor is the location of the pressure gauges, or rather the direction they face. Have to get down on hands and knees to read them. Easily fixed with two 90° brass fittings if you don't mind invalidating the warranty. OTOH, neither of my other CAT compressors has had the slightest problem, and both are out of warranty. So maybe I'll tempt fate and make the gauges easier to read—and spare my old, overused knees. =^}

Very quiet and efficient. Love it

Consider this an above average non-professional air compressor. I purchased this to replace my old small craftsman diaphragm compressor. I like that it has a larger capacity to run air tools, it's low noise, and horizontal tank so it fits beneath the work-bench.

I replaced a 30 + year old compressor and so far I think it's going to work out just fine. I can actually have a conversation with someone standing next to it while running! I do recommend this product !

Much quieter than my old oiless 2 1/2 hp compressor but it was 32yrs in use. Have had this cal.air for only 2wks. and seated a 17" truck tire, 16ga nail gun and aired many outdoor equip. tires, hopefully it will last many years.
