I chose a Sears model because I figure that I can get parts for it, although some of the equivalent stuff out there is less expensive, but there is no parts support. Things DO wear out, after all! |

Yes it is a noisy thing. When I was building at my house the compressor was within feet of me at all times and I wore my I-Pod ear pods at all times. When I moved to my hanger I had a closet sized Rubbermaid building that I wasn't using and it is now out behind the hanger with the compressor in it. I can still hear it but it is just a low growl. As for the compressor it has done everything I've asked of it which include LOTS of holes drilled and LOTS of rivets pulled as well as misc. other air tools. |
