Compressors by DeWalt

 

I've been all over the Los Angeles area working on small to massive-sized projects. I've worked at Disneyland, Sony Pictures, Universal Studios, Bradbury Building, J. Paul Getty Museum - you name it, I've worked there.

And you know what I hated most about construction? Crappy power tools. Do NOT waste your money on junk tools and then give those junk tools to your men.

Always buy the best tools money can buy. Your men will thank you for it and will show their appreciation by increased productivity.

"This unit is very quiet for an oil free compressor, much quieter than the Sears compressor it replaced. Anyone looking to purchase a compressor for the garage or shop, this is the perfect choice. It looks great, runs quiet, and the compact gauges are easy to read. A solid purchase."
______________________________________________________

"After I took it out of the box, I could see that it was build slightly different from the others on display at the store: the cord is much longer (perhaps 5 feet longer), the plastic shroud covers all the pressure lines, and the valve on the bottom of the tank has more clearance. Overall, for its size and weight, this compressor has very good performance. I made sure to break in the motor/pump as per the manual. I'm very pleased with the price and performance of this compressor."

"I bought mine about six months ago and have been using it primarily for finish nailing and blowing out the dust from my shop. This is a well constructed unit with a nice design. The handle serves a second purpose: protecting the control panel in case the compressor tips over. I recommend this tank for its solid design, higher capacity tank, and its compact package."

"I'm a full time contractor and was on the lookout for a compressor to replace my Campbell-Hausfeld. I bought this DeWalt compressor and put it to work for a 30-day trial. I quickly realized I had been missing out on a great compressor; I should have bought this unit sooner. The unit has loads of features and advantages. The name Emglo on the unit indicates this is a unit built by an industry leader recognized for building tough, dependable compressors. The unit just purrs and runs smoothly."
____________________________________________________

"This is a well built unit with a great look. Portability is easy and the weight is manageable by any craftsman. Handles demand for 1 framing nailer or 2 smaller guns. The controls are positioned well and the drain valve works perfectly. In my opinion, this unit is too loud for using in a customer's home but is perfect for garage or shop use."
____________________________________________________

"This compressor is designed well and is perfect for on-the-go use from site to site. The sleek design keeps the unit from getting stuck on a pant leg while carrying it or otherwise complicating its portability. I've found its easiest to carry it by the handle and hug it to your chest. I bought this unit based on the great reputations DeWalt and Emglo. I now understand why everyone recommends the Dewalt and Emglo brand. This is a great unit."
