Customer Reviews
I am no stranger to IR compressors as I have purchase many over the years used for large production facility applications. My experience using them and their reputation in the field solidifies in my mind that they are at the top of their game, the best of the best. When it came time to replace my portable compressor, I came upon this twin stack unit (model P1IU-A9), and decided to give it a try.
Box arrived on promised date (thanks Amizon) but with a few war wounds, which translated into a few scratches on the tanks; not enough to return the unit. Was pleasantly surprised at the quality of all the hardware. Everything seems to be extra heavy duty which of course translates in to weight. She is quite heavy but not to the point that it is not portable. I will probably dedicate a dolly or cart to facilitate rolling it around.
It came with an air filter that looks more like it was designed for dessert conditions (very well designed). Stainless steel braded line leading from compressor to tank (not visible in pictures), quality brass fittings and copper lines. All plumbing seemed to be properly assembled. Nice fit and finish.
When I fired it up, I was pleasantly surprised. It seemed to be half as loud as my previous (Campbell and Hausfeld) compressor. I also noticed it had low vibration. Previous compressor vibrated quite violently.
Tank fills quickly and consistently and comes with a brass ball valve drain.
Negatives:
A little upset about the paint on the tanks getting scratched from shipping, but I got over it.
Weight - maybe too heavy for someone with a bad back (approx. 80 lbs.)
Manifold assembly (gauges, regulator, connections) was not centered with cut-outs in front panel. Easy to fix.
Gauges, as many have said, are poor. They are hard to read (small print). I had to get down on my hands and knees to read the pressure. On the bright side, at least they would be very easy to change out if I decided to do so in the future.
All in all, very pleased with the purchase. I am a value hound and this is one of the best values I have run across in a long time. Built like a tank.
I purchased this from Northern Tool when they had free delivery for nearly all IR products. It was also much cheaper than the price listed on Amazon at the time of this review.
I have used this mainly for minor automotive use such as: filling tires and removing some bolts with a cheapo (read: air hog) Campbell Hausfeld air wrench. I have also used it with a blower to clean out my garage. Doesn't necessarily keep up with the blower nozzle, as I expected, but with a short break (10-15 seconds) it gets back up to pressure and I can continue. No problems powering the air wrench, but the bolts I was removing weren't on too bad.
It's a fairly quiet compressor, with the loudest noise coming from the connectors rattling, not the compressor itself. I would like to add one 3/8" connector but I'm wondering if I need to make the cover holes larger so it can fit. Overall it seems to be a high quality unit that can handle most DIY tasks without taking up too much space. I wouldn't recommend this for an avid grease monkey, but for minor automotive tasks it should be fine. It should also be able to run a couple framing nailers simultaneously without much of a sweat. Compared to other compressors of this style/size this compressor is quite competitive. Also check out the Senco compressor for similar performance.
