Customer Reviews for DEWALT 2.5 Gal. Portable Electric Heavy Duty 200 PSI Quiet Air Compressor

This unit is vary quite. Builds pressure up quickly. Way better that Anticipated. Good value for the money.

Excellent product, quiet and puts out enough volume to service truck and rv tires.

The compressor was light weight and quiet However it couldn’t keep up with two nail guns at the same time.

good pressure and quiet

I love how quiet this compressor is. I highly recommend this unit to anyone that wants a small high pressure compressor.

So far so good! Compressor is super quiet compared to pancake compressors but not as quiet as the 1 gallon Dewalt. All in all im very satisfied.

Is okay for some small work at home, run nail gun fine but for blowing some dust over me or my staff definitely not good, is to small for that!

Complete junk, it is shameful that Dewalt puts their name on this product. I will never purchase any tool, device or product that is this color yellow again…

This portable compressor has performed extraordinary well for the several years I have used it. I have owned two other brands of similar size and they didn't work as well. In addition, it's light and easy to use. I'm very happy with this unit. DeWalt did it again!

I really wanted to like this product due to compact size, higher PSI output, etc. But like many other reviews, this product stopped working properly about 6 months. Regulator not working, had to turn unit off, wait 30 seconds or so and turn back on jsut to get the unit to fill the tank again. Also, as others noted I was not able to get 200 PSI out of it. And, when it did break, no great service to fix it or get replacement parts.

Recharges with air fast and is super quiet. My stamp of approval

I love it it’s compact and light weight. It’s two compressors in one for me.I had a two gallon and a one gallon both were old compressors with problems and this one takes the place of both

I’ve owned this compressor for more than five years and it has performed flawlessly. It’s a great trim compressor. Don’t buy it thinking you can use it to shoot lacquer an hour at a time, or to re-roof a house, but it can shoot brads all day long, as long as you’re not firing on full auto. I haven’t experienced any of the problems noted by other reviewers. Unless I were moving into serious air volume territory, I’d buy this compressor again in a heartbeat. Bonus: it’s a bit heavy, but you can lug it around like a suitcase.

I purchased this, because i liked the sturdiness of the roll cage and that it can be run lying down or standing up. Brand new out of the box the unit started up fine but would only get to 150 PSI. This unit is supposed to stop at 165 PSI for the tank. It kept on running and when i shut it off is when you can hear air escaping from within the unit. It eventually stopped to a point where you couldn't hear it at about 100 PSI on the tank gauge. I find it unbelievable that a major manufacturer would let this go without testing it.

Nice unit, not very loud, runs a 15ga like a champ. 2 years use no issues.

It doesn’t work after only a few times. I have a dozen dewalt tools this is the most disappointing quality

It has enough PSI to fill my Fifth Aheel Tires and I’m sure many more…..I love the fact that it is quiet

Great air compressor small light, and strong, I do all day siding with it

Incredibly quiet yet plenty of pressure. Tank runs less than my previous pancake compressor and is very efficient and quiet.

As a professional carpenter for 30 years I expect my “professional tools” to last under normal use and being taken care of. I had the same problem others had where it stopped building pressure. This is a back up compressor and doesn’t get day in and day out use. I’ve used every other brand of air compressor out there and since Dewalt bought out Emglo years ago there compressors are the worst. I currently own and use three other dewalt compressors and they’ve all been in for repair multiple times. RIDICULOUS! Do yourself a favor and buy another brand. Especially since Dewalt doesn’t own up to their poor engineering by recalling their mistakes.
