THE DEWALT 1.5 HORSE DUAL VOLTAG , DUAL CONTROL IS TE BEST OF THE BEST.I RUN A HARD WOOD FLOOR COMPANY , AND WE USE ALL AIR TOOLS . WE HAVE OUT RUN LESSER COMPRESSORS AND HAD TO STOP NAILING TO LET THE COMPRESSOR CATCH UP. NOT ANY MORE !! THANKS DEWALT FOR A AWESOME COMPRESSOR .

This compressor is a top quality tool. Since the day it came to me it has been in use. It is used on my jobsites building new homes, and remodeling, mostly running air nailers. I believe I have had it 7 years. I have changed the oil in the compressor one time. I am not at all easy on tools. We use them on nearly a daily basis. After going through one oiless compressor after another I went in search of a higher quality tool, and I will never go back to another oiless compressor again. The machine runs constantly with the compressor cutting out when air pressure is where it needs to be. It runs so quietly you can carry on a conversation at a normal tone right over the thing. We sometimes forget to shut it off at lunch because it is so quiet. As with every compressor I've ever seen the regulator struggles to work properly in freezing temperatures. This is the only problem I have ever had with the machine. If you rely on a compressor on a daily or nearly daily basis you need this compressor. You will not be sorry.

Great compressor! I run several Trim nail guns & I always have more than enough air. I rate this compressor @ 5 star's. Buy this and you will never need another one again.

This air compressor, like most DeWalt tools is a great piece of equipment. . It can run several framing guns, nailing sheathing off,wide open and it keeps up with very little catchup time.

Dual control is an excellent feature that allows you to use constant run when you're nailing like crazy, or start/stop for slower days.

The compressor will run smoother on start/stop operation if ran on 220V. Many won't need the dual voltage feature though, because most jobsites have eliminated 220V temp service due to requirement of GFCI on 220V(expensive).
Also, it's hard to beat the free super saver shipping (allow 18 days to Washington)and 10% discount that Amazon is currently promoting.

With that said, those that are searching for the "original" Emglo (old blue) should look to Jenny Products. They have the original Emglo,just a different name due to Dewalt purchasing the Emglo name for non industrial units.

I'm very pleased with the DeWalt D55570 compressor and Amazon's service.This is the first place I check for tools now.
