Eagle EA-3000 Silent Series 3000 Air Compressor 125 MAX psi Hot Dog with panel, Blue, 1 gallon

The five stars are based on my initial impression. I plugged this in, flipped the switch and could not believe how quiet it is. I have used a famous brand pancake style compressor for many years. The difference in noise is dramatic. This unit is quieter than I thought it would be based on the online video. If it holds up in daily use, I will be a happy camper.

So quiet. Fast fill up. Tank is obviously very small, but I am thoroughly impressed with the quality and function. Probably going to plumb my old roll around compressor tank to make it an expansion tank when needed.

This is by far the best compressor on market super quiet and yet still very effective will buy again

I had to order 2 to get it right, since the first one had a quite a bit of sand inside left over from the sandblasting when it was being manufactured. I checked with the manufacturer that this was in fact true, that this can happen. I wish Eagle would just charge $20 more so they could pay for better quality control. There should be NO sand or any kind of other debris inside such air tank!The 2nd compressor I received was perfect and seem to operate as advertised. It is insanely quite and the tank fills up quick. My only concern is with reliability on a product that is just $200. We will just have to wait and see what happens, but I'd like to get at least a full 5+ years of trouble free operation for my money. That would seem fair I think. The compressor seem to be build VERY well and with no corners cut like most of it's competitors in the same price range has done. Eagle seem to have been very careful in it's design and with good attention to detail, and I like that a lot. This compressor is rock-solid! I only gave it 4 stars because of the sand issue and because I question it's reliability at this price range.I am very happy with my purchase and I believe that Eagle is a great company that will also stand behind their customers. When I called them regarding the 1st compressor I got, they were honest with me and didn't try and run me around. They helped me return it with no real hesitation. I will recommend to anyone reading this review to make your purchase through Amazon and NOT Air Compressor Direct, which I originally did with the 1st one that had the sand issue. Amazon is a breeze to deal with and always hassle-free, where the regular old-school hardware kind of store will fight you tooth and nail to get anything done and the return will take forever and so will your refund. HUGE hassle, I'll tell you, and I won't make that mistake again.

Super Quite, used in small bathroom and could hold normal conversation. Quietest compressor I have every had. Handled nailer no problem

Well made, good design, easy to carry with comfortable well balanced handle. Very quiet and comes up to pressure from empty in about 30 seconds. Can't find anything I don't like about this sweet little machine.
