Barely Used and Already Leaking
Purchased in October 2023 and have barely used it as I just keep it around to air up tires and I'm still in the process of getting air tools. This thing leaks out of the regulator knob constantly unless it's set at the max psi. Seems pretty pointless if you can't adjust the psi. The size is nice, it's a quiet compressor, but it seems every compressor from HD needs maintenance out of the box.

        I switched from an old Craftsman air compressor which was so loud I always had to wear ear plugs. Picked this one up, and it’s a huge difference. I can have a conversation with someone and actually hear them. It doesn’t take long to fill up either. I use this with air tools and for inflating tires and haven’t had a problem.

        Mind Blown
        I wasn't expecting much out of the "80% quieter motor". But, once I powered it on, it truly blew my mind with how quiet this is. Follow the instructions with the break in period on the motor and you should have no issues out of this compressor.

            Super quiet until it's not
            I have used this compressor for 10 months. As time progresses so do the issues. It is at 98 decibels 50 feet away, it is actually louder than a normal compressor now. The motor will not turn on for appropriate duty cycles allowing the tank to completely drain. I contacted customer service who will only replace the unit if I use it for a business!! Since it's in my home, they will only send me a box of parts that I need to install myself. DON'T BUY HUSKY FOR THE WARRANTY!! Never again!!

              Quality midrange compressor at a fair price
              Been using for about 6 months with no issues. I have it strapped down inside of my cargo van and run it off an 1800W inverter. Very efficient. Use for mobile auto repair, so I primarily use it to run a blow gun, air hammer, fill tires. Hasn't let me down yet. Do wish it filled up quicker though (takes about 6 min). Overall great compressor at a great price. Follow the break-in procedure in the manual and drain when not in use, and you will be golden

                Solid and reliable
                We did an upgrade from our previous compressor that we ran for over 10 years. So glad we upgraded worth every penny

                  Surprisingly quiet when running.
                  I had previously ordered a Husky 27 gal. compressor, but it was defective right out of the box. Air just blew out of the inlet, none into the tank. This new one is smaller at 20 gallons,but that's plenty for my needs. It seems more robust than the first one, and works great. The metal guard around the pump is a little crooked, but the performance is unaffected, so oh well. It's a shop tool, after all, not the space shuttle.

                    I'm sorry for the customers with quality issues
                    I read the reviews for the 20 gal quiet husky compressor and I was concerned but I've had good luck with husky in the past so I have it a chance. I was replacing my ten gal California Air compressor when it died and I wanted another quiet compressor with more volume. I'm a few weeks in and it has worked perfectly right out of the box. I followed the break in instructions and have just used it since. Great product, I bought it in store so I could check for damage before I brought it home.

                      The compressor runs quiet and smoothly. Would like it to recharge a bit quicker. Overall, a good decision to buy it.

                      I wish I could recommend this
                      I bought this and it is quiet, but that's it's only good quality. I have a problem with it that it will pump up fully, then it won't refill the tank, it will just struggle to start then stop and unless I drain the whole thing it will not pump up. So I would not recommend it even though it is the most quiet air compressor I've owned.

                        AMAZING air compressor! I had no idea that somebody could make a strong air compressor and it be so quiet to operate! This is a game changer for sure! Thank you!

                        Air Compressor
                        Excellent compressor very very quiet. Decided to go ahead and put it in my shop rather than under the shed. Highly recommended.
