This is a great little compressor from Senco's discontinued line of Accuset tools . I spoke with Senco and they informed me that some of the Accuset line will be rebadged as Senco , hopefully this would be one of their included picks .

I like this compressor because of its relatively light weight [39 pds. or so] and its compactness and streamlined shape. Most of the bits that would tend to get knocked off during loadind and moving are enclosed in the plastic shrouding around the motor , and the air chuck is sensibly and securly mounted on top so pulling by the air hose shouldn't break it off as has happened with other compressors I've owned . The shrouding I believe also helps to quiet things down a bit , however in a small bedroom with no furniture and hardwood floors I would not call this unit quiet . Keeping in mind that it is oil less [which means they use teflon coated rings in stead of an oil bath] I would say it falls in the middle or slightly below for a decible rating of compressors of this type . In other words it is highly acceptable decible wise. Only the Thomas industries line of compressors could truly be called quiet from what I've seen.

As for qaulity and performance , I had to replace 4 rooms of carpeting about 9 years ago due to a "leak free" oil bath compressor so I switched to these oiless types and have found them to be flawless and I've never looked back. This 2061 also puts out a surprising 4.1 cfm @90psi . We use it exclusively on those 3rd floor remodels for running all our guns , it's just to easy to carry not to. Obviously you wouldn't run a large framing crew with it , then you'd have a gas powered compressor. By the way the recovery time is 8.5 seconds not 85 as the spec above says . Actually mine seems closer to 8 seconds . Only reason I gave it a 4 rating is because things could always be quieter but this is better than most models. It still uses a 3450 rpm motor to get the air output/low 14 amp draw . Other machines sometimes have 1750 rpm motors which are quieter but pump less air. Hope this helps.

I have used this item for six months and am very happy with the performance. It operates without problems and performs as advertised.
