Eagle Silent Series 2.5-HP 6-Gallon Air Compressor

I have purchased this air compressor to do some general construction using air tools and also to do some hobby work using an airgun for painting.

I needed a compressor that would be able to handle a large output of cubic feet per minute of air as HVLP guns require. Unfortunately all the units on the market were not able to handle large amount of CFM at a given PSI.

This unit was able to handle the CFM requirement of most of my tools, except probably a large task of sandblasting. You will not be able to find any unit that would be able to handle 9 CFM without being in the $1000 price range and also the units already get much bigger and heavier and are intended to stay in a fixed location.

THIS UNIT is the ONLY unit I found that reached much more CFM than I expected in a machine to deliver for this price range, and don't get me wrong, it really is very quiet. It's pretty light and easy to move considering it has wheels. Additionally, the simplicity of this unit definitely tops other more complicated units.

This is simply the best bang any buck can buy.

Incredibly quiet air compressor that is surprisingly strong. Unfortunately was damaged when packed at the factory (not in shipping) so had to contact the company. Excellent customer service- after a few minutes with very, very courteous agent, they shipped replacement parts.

Fixed it up and have had it running, with about 1/10th the noise of my old Bostich compressor and about 10x the air!

I shopped around for quite awhile to replace my old portable air compressor, which went missing during a robbery. I came to the conclusion that this unit was the way to go for me.

The price was a bit of sting but I decided that sometimes you just get what you pay for. It is a very quiet machine, much quieter than my last one and this is a huge plus.

It is easily transportable and light enough, with a little effort, for me to put in my truck if needed. I do wish it had come with an air hose for the price.

I work in a small garage shop so my primary concerns are noise and space so I cannot have a large noisy compressor. This one is extremely quiet so even though it needs to cycle more than a larger one it is so fast a quiet that it does not matter.

It can be stored vertically to save space and the built in cart makes for easy transport.

This is a very powerful and capable compressor. Drives my tools with ease. If you're looking for a portable, consider this awesome air compressor, with 6 CFM @ 90 PSI.

I have only started this up a couple of time before I had to spend some time in the hospital, but I was blown away at how quiet this machine is.

It is heavy but if a 68 year old can lift it, then it not too heavy. Everything on this seems top notch.

One minor complaint (but not taking off any stars for it) is there is no latch on the fold up handle when you fold it down.

Great compressor, quiet operation, quick to fill- everything as advertised. I have owned several compressors over the years this is by far the best one yet.

Good recovery time and VERY quiet. Just used it with a framing nailer to install deck boards. Good build quality.

Recovers fast, love the quiet running. It is pricey but worth it.

The quietest compressor I've ever used. Loving it.

Had broken rubber bushings where the compressor mounted to the cart. Called the manufacturer, they shipped replacements for free, no argument, no fuss.

Very happy with it so far.
