    and look nice (I notice those)
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 28, 2016*

I wrote California Air a short letter. They then asked that I write a review on Amazon. Instead of writing something new, here is what I wrote to California Air Tools:Dear Sir or Madame, (Guy or Gal)I received your Model 1650A Compressor today.My background: I have been a machinist for 23 years. Currently I manage a machine shop for an automation company. I purchased your product for my home 'Mini' machine shop. I live in an apartment (noise is an issue).To cut to the point, as of day 1, I am impressed beyond words. YouTube cannot convey the sound level of your compressors accurately. My mouth fell open when I first turned it on.Noise level aside (you guys totally got that). I manufacture products as well, first thing I look at on anything, is how well is made. Once again, you have my respect. Welds are solid, and look nice (I notice those). Excellent paint. Weight well balanced. Stainless braided line from pump to tank (won't find that at any other compressor in this class). Ball valve tank drain. High quality Quick Disconnect. Dump valve where you can actually reach it. Fittings sealed well. Enough of the kudos.My only suggestion, a manifold block placing both gauges facing the front of the tank. Don't worry, I'll make one for mine (lol).Now for the BAD thing, don't worry, it's not bad, only people like me will notice. You used a standard motor starter/cap cover to mount electrics to base plate. Completely acceptable. It's just a cosmetic thing for me, on such a well made product. No harm done.In summary, thank you for building a quality product. Your compressor has impressed me, that does not happen often.Keep up the good work,Thank You for your time,There you go.I am very impressed with compressor.

    Good but not Great
  

*by J***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 21, 2016*

Good little compressor, it does exactly what I need.  Very quiet and light.  I have had both the Senco and Dewalt small compressors and this one is a little more powerful and quieter.  The only thing is its built like the Senco so the fit and finish is not that polished.  Looks like its put together in a small shop.  They could refine it some what and make it a outstanding product.  The regulator is not that accurate and takes some back and forth to get the pressure you want.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great unit for smaller jobs.
  

*by L***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 3, 2016*

Yes, this is a quiet compressor and simple instructions to operate.  Limited run time due to no lube oil in the unit so I position a shop fan on the unit.  May be an overkill but I watch the 30 minute time limit recommendation and operate the motor in the shade (outdoors) or garage area.
