Puma 5-HP 60-Gallon (Belt Drive) Single-Stage Air Compressor

First off delivery to my front door was great! Why go buy an air compressor when you can order direct from Air Compressors Direct and get the product delivered right to your front door !

The Puma air compressor is quiet, low vibration, works well and does great. I waited a month until I wrote my review to make sure I was happy with my products- and I am happy with product and with this website!

We have this Air Compressor setup in a retail commercial building and you can barely hear it running when it does kick on. We purchased this machine for our screen print shop to run our press and the air Compressor is awesome!

Was very disappointed with the air regulator on this air compressor. It is a heavy duty air compressor and I can't believe that they put a cheap part on it. After I replaced it (m at my own expense) with a heavy duty regulator it is working fine.

Their regulator only lasted about 3 weeks.

Dealing with ACD.was awesome. Placing the order to be delivered, I received the compressor in about 4 days after placing my order. ACD has great customer service as well.

The compressor never misses a beat. Runs my grinders, DA, and my paint guns. I never have to wait for the air to build up.

It is really quiet for its size. I think this is the best compressor I have ever owned.

Buy one- u will not be disappointed.

My last air compressor was a Craftsman horizontal unit. It was my first and only compressor until it was stolen. I did quite a bit of research and pulled the trigger on the Puma based on the specifications and lots of excellent reviews.

In person the Puma appears to be very well built. It arrived ready for service. A quick check revealed that all bolts were tight, belt was properly adjusted, etc. After having an electrician install a 230V circuit I fired it up for the break-in period.

My first impression was that it is so much quieter than my last compressor. I've used it several times now to apply a liquid sound deadener and ceramic thermal insulation paint to a restored truck. Works great! At 55 psi it rarely has to kick on and when it does the volume level is perfectly comfortable from 10 feet away.

I am very happy with the purchase so far and glad I found Air Compressors Direct.com!

Well what can I say---the first two times I used the unit it was great--but the third time
when I fired the unit up it started turning over with a noise and then smoked motor and popped
the breaker with fluid coming out of right upper electrical unit attached to motor?

I spoke to Steve in Puma's service dept. - something to do with to many volts?
Anyway Steve sent out another motor unit with a new p-switch--so far so good!

Let me say that Steve did his job. You need more people like Steve!

This compressor runs quiet but does put out a lot of heat. It was easy to wire up to my existing 220 from my previous compressor. The delivery truck driver was great and used a pallet jack to move the compressor as close as he could to my mounting location. The packaging was strange with a pallet nailed to another pallet and vertical wood beams as support.

These beams scratched the paint off the tank but no big deal. My biggest surprise was when I was at Northern tool and saw the exact same compressor under the north star name at 100 bucks less. I'm still happy with my purchase and the delivery was worth the extra paid.

My experience with ACD was awesome!! Ordered the compressor, great price and time frame for delivery. Had lift gate service, the delivery company called and set a date to deliver. They came on time and set it right in my garage!! Great service!! The compressor was in perfect condition. Set it up next day, worked perfect, was an awesome investment!! Thanks ACD!!!

This is my second Puma. the first was the 6060 this one is the 6560.

It does just what i wanted it for- I needed the CFMs to run an HVLP sprayer, never missed a beat.

I had great service with Air Compressors Direct, easy and smooth.

Thanks for a great product.

I first purchased a 5 hp Puma in 1996. That compressor never failed. I felt it was time to upgrade so my choice was of course another Puma.

It was delivered in perfect condition. Runs like a top and very quiet.

Highly recommend this compressor!!!

Don't think I could have had a better experience. Ordering was easy and was delivered extremely quickly - ordered on a Monday and was in my driveway by Friday.

Just followed the directions with regards to checking that everything was secured and aligned (no adjustments needed), oil level was good, etc. Had an electrician power it up and it's running as advertised.

I bought this primarily for sandblasting with a small dental blast cabinet and, since it was going in my basement, was concerned about noise level. The shop vac hooked up to the blast cabinet is actually louder than the compressor.

Definitely been a good experience for me and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.

Pro's surprisingly quiet, low vibration, eye appealing, and cost effective. Impressive.

Con: first run, unloader continued to hiss, I had to remove the check valve and remove a metal chip that was stuck in the valve holding it open. I realize that this could happen on almost piece of new equipment. I would still give it Five stars at this time, we will see how it holds up in the years to come.

Note: I am the type of owner that will change the oil occasionally and check the belt.
Note: I have a problem rating something that I have not used.
