Preliminary testing is 5 stars

ByJonathan Bretton December 26, 2012

Verified Purchase

I am a kitchen & bath remodeler, and have yet to use this on the job. I have, however, done some preliminary testing in my garage tonight. The results are stated below.

My first impressions are all positive: Better quality than expected at this price (great value). Smaller (better) than expected. Quieter than expected. Now for the tests.

Quantity of nails shot with various nail guns before motor kicked on, using this Senco PC1010:
23 gauge = 20
18 gauge = 10
15 gauge = 5
Framing nailer = 3

To give a comparison to a larger pancake style 4 gallon 1.5 HP Campbell Hausfeld that I have been using for 15 years, which weighs more than twice as much (52 lbs.):
18 gauge = 40
15 gauge = 18
Framing = 13

Obviously, these numbers coincide with the number of gallons of compressed air, as the 4 gallon unit delivered approx. 4 times more nails than the 1 gallon unit. No surprise here.

Recovery time (time from when motor first kicks back on while nailing, to when tank is fully charged and motor stops, with no nailing during this time) = 32 seconds. By comparison, my Campbell Hausfeld takes 30 seconds. It has a much larger motor, but it is having to compress 4 gallons of air instead of 1 gallon. Again, no surprise here.

Noise test:
I did two tests on both, this Senco, and my old Campbell Hausfeld. First I put my decibel meter right up next to the motor, and then I moved the meter to 3 feet from the motor. Here are the results:
Noise level, in decibels, at motor:
Senco = 83, Campbell Hausfeld = 99
Same test from 3 feet away from motor:
Senco = 69, Campbell Hausfeld = 80

From what I understand, 10 decibels = double the sound. Therefore, the Campbell Hausfeld is more than twice as loud. I believe this is accurate based on standing next to each unit.

My primary reason for wanting to change compressors was to reduce weight. I feel that having fewer gallons of compressed air immediately available is a small price to pay for having a compressor that is not only less than HALF the weight and size, but MUCH quieter as well. Especially given that my primary use will be with 23 & 18 gauge nailers.

This is NOT the kind of compressor you want for doing a lot of 15 gauge nailing, and certainly not for framing. It will drive them just as powerfully as any large compressor - after all, 125 psi is 125 psi - but it simply will not be able to keep up with mass nailing using this size gun. Need to install a couple pre-hung doors? No problem. Need to build a partition or two for that kitchen remodel? No problem. But don't even think about trying to use this, and expect it to keep up, if framing a house all day long, or roofing a house. It was not designed for that. Buy the tool that meets the need and rate it accordingly.

Note: I realize that my comparisons with the Campbell Hausfeld are not an apples-to-apples comparison. I just wanted to offer this info for anyone who may be wanting to change from a pancake style to this little Senco. I figured that since the pancake models were so popular that this comparison might be of help.

I will try to report back after I have used it on several jobs. Time will tell if this little gem can maintain it's 5 star rating. This was my first Senco tool ever purchased. I have a feeling it won't be my last. Very impressive, so far.

6 MONTH UPDATE: After using this product for the last 6 months, for my kitchen remodeling business, I maintain my rating of it. It has been a GREAT little compressor for all my nailing needs. It handles ALL of my trim needs, as well as the occasional building of a wall or two with a framing nailer. I love this compressor much more than I did the larger pancake compressor that I had used all those years.

16 MONTH UPDATE: After nearly a year and half of regular use on the job, I remain fully impressed with this compressor. The ONLY "problem" that I have encountered was that the foam pad around the handle has started to tear off. NO big deal since the unit is so light anyway. Nice to have the foam, but not really a NEED. Other than this minor flaw, this thing has been perfect. I have never once found that I wish I had a bigger unit.

Cute, quiet little compressor with one big problem

ByChrison September 17, 2017

Verified Purchase

I'm really, really bummed about this compressor. I spent HOURS researching and shopping around for my first air compressor -- and settled upon this Senco one. When it arrived and I unpackaged it, I practically squeeled in delight at how adorable and small it was. It's well built, very well balanced, with a nice foam grip. The layout of the motor, safety valve, etc are all top notch -- you couldn't ask for a better looking compressor.

I quickly attached my 25' quick fit hose and started testing out various levels of psi with my extendable compressed air handle.

It was great fun at the beginning; this senco compressor is marvelously quiet. I've had cordless drills/drivers that sounded louder -- in fact, it practically purrs, with a pleasantly deep 'thuhthuhthuh' sound. Very low decibel level.

The honeymoon phase was short-lived. The next day I woke up early, eager to play with senco pc1010 -- however, the joy I had experienced just hours before was quickly overshadowed by frustration. My darling senco compressor, even at a modest 50 psi, had a glaring flaw:

A tiny, tiny 1 gallon tank, and a tiny, tiny .5hp motor!!!

My frustration quickly turned to dismay, and eventually dissatisfaction; he simply would not blow hard enough or last long enough, before having to cycle again to refill that one measly gallon! And with only a 1/2hp motor, that process felt like waiting for paint to dry. How did I not see the warning signs?! Uuuggghh.

Every task seemed to take ages; just a short press of my air nozzle, and his tank was depleted almost immediately -- even at lower psi settings, which would then barely move any air! Forget even trying to use >75psi for longer than a few seconds; he simply cannot keep up the pace.

What once was a pleasing 'thuhthuhthuh' sound to my ears, was now a constant reminder of how slow and weak pc1010 was. I knew what had to be done, yet it broke my heart to say goodbye.

Afterward, I dallied around with a larger 5gal compressor from California Air Tools; but that one was far too heavy and lacked the grace and finesse of my first -- my darling sweet Senco PC1010. I even tried a short stint with one of those cheap "tankless" compressors -- the bastard wouldn't even turn on. Blegh.

Oh, PC1010... You will be missed -- even though you couldn't get the job done, I'll always remember you fondly as my first ever compressor and the amazing night we had together.

Update: I'm now using a 3gal from Briggs & Stratton. Heavier and a tad louder, but close enough in size and form to this senco with a much bigger tank and motor / cfm flow.

Senco PC1010 Air Compressor

ByDonaldon February 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

This compressor was purchased as a hobby usage compressor, it arrived in unscathed condition, opening and reviewing the direction booklet which was very concise and clear, I filed the serial number and proceeded to fire this puppy up.
The compressor sets on rubber feet and on a tile floor with 15 foot ceilings it was exceptionally quiet,and filled the 1 gallon tank in a little less than the book stated of 144 seconds. As a test I let the pressure stand on the tank for 3 days no bleed down, the regulator works well and is fine tunable, to me it is very heavy duty in it's build and actually a stronger looking unit than I had expected.
When it fills the 125psi on the tank and only using 30 psi at the regulator for airbrushing it sets a while before needing to restart and fill the tank. I like it better than the pancake diaphragm unit it is replacing.
Only down side was the quick connect is not marked as to the style a,b or c plug in so I had to remove it to get the proper plug in if it was stamped it would be better.
I forgot to add the quick connect info, it is a IM style connect..02192015

but couldn't justify the cost seeing my oiless pancake still runs fine even though it's as loud as a freight train

ByJCon January 27, 2016

Verified Purchase

I've been wanting on of these little gems for a long time, but couldn't justify the cost seeing my oiless pancake still runs fine even though it's as loud as a freight train. I got a super deal on it for getting an Amazon Visa card ($80 instant credit) I just couldn't pass it up.
1/2 the weight of a pancake, easier to carry, whisper quiet in comparison and perfect for running my finish nailer's, and the the clients don't complain about the noise anymore, that's worth 5 stars right there.

This compressor is considered "disposable", and has only 90 day warranty. Check out the review under combo pack that uses the same compressor.

Too small for practical use.

It is nice and compact, but that is the only thing I like about it. The compressor motor is very load and is too weak to do any decent inflating or air-power tool use.Read more
