Review: Quiet efficiency and a quality build - There’s an inevitability when you start thinking you need an air compressor. And that inevitability is that very soon after you buy it, you realize you need a bigger one. This is my third compressor purchase in three years, and likely the best. The previous two compressors were too small and way too noisy. They worked, but those drawbacks were maddening. After some research, I decided on this compressor and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. It’s quiet, has a large enough capacity (I’m exaggerating, of course I’d like to have a larger one), and so far appears to be very well built. The wheels, which are easy to install, are a must, as this California Air Tools product is on the weighty side at 82.5 pounds. The well designed handle and the chonky wheels make it easy to move around. Recommended for nailing, I’ve found that it also works well with my cut-off, staple, and impact driver tools. It runs on 110, has a 10-gallon tank, and is very, very quiet, thanks to a relatively slow rpm.
Review: Great compressor, super quiet, runs air tools and I even painted my truck with it using a lvlp gun - I'm super happy with this product. I upgraded my little 2 gallon portable compressor which was hella loud and annoying, while this one is super duper quiet, I can't tell you how much I appreciate how quiet it is, I discovered pneumatic and I love those, this runs most air tools just fine, just pay attention to how much cfm they require when buying and your's will run well too. Air tools are cool, whole new world. I actually bought it because I wanted to paint my 66 ford ranchero with single-stage urethane in metallic british racing green and I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a larger compressor and didn't have a lot of space with the truck in the garage, I also wanted a quieter work environment. I picked up a little LVLP (low-volume low-pressure) spray gun from china that was about $120 bucks and even though a lot of people said it wouldn't work, it worked great (I had one redo but that was because I ran the paint haha, my fault). It also blows all the dust out of the garage quite well, especially with a 4' extendible barrel gun. all in all I'm pretty happy with it, I also use it to cool down spot welds when welding thin sheet metal, like body panels so they don't distort from the heat. Sometimes I wish I had more cfm so I could get a better paint gun that is HVLP but since I will only be painting cars once every year or two it fits the balance of my needs better. It's really nice you can still hear your stereo while it is running. So quiet it wouldn't even wake up a sleeping baby hahaha yeah naw that is an exaggeration but you get the point mate.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there any power benefit for going 240v such as more CFM?**
A: More CFM? No, but there is a side benefit associated with 240V operation: less extraneous power loss in the motor windings, creating less heat, and in theory, extending the motor life over its brother 120V motor.

**Q: i don't see a drain valve. how does it drain?**
A: My drain valve is on the very bottom of the tank

**Q: Where is this product made?**
A: Says right on the box, "Made in China". Which was a big disappointment to me.

**Q: My air compressor has stopped working how do I get warrantied**
A: Your guess is good as mine. I purchased this compressor in 2015. Called George in customer service. I was told to take the heads off and, I explained to George, there was so many foreign bodies of metal and crap. 
I have used the compressor to air tires and clean chain on bicycles. The tank would not hold air, motor never shut off. 
For the next 2 years, I provided hospice care to my mother and father in law plus I broke my back. My complaint about the possibility of working with George on getting it replaced fell on deaf ears because now the defective compressor is out of warranty. I'm going to be a reasonable person here, you know George, sometimes life is a priority over a defective product and worthless warranty. I now have a 120# paper weight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent air compressor for home use. Unit runs very well. Just a couple minor things to be aware.
*by N***K on July 27, 2018*

I bought the CAT 10020C compressor a little over a year ago to use for small projects around the house and to air up my tires as needed (we have 3 vehicles). I've been very pleased with the purchase. The unit works as advertised - it's very quiet. I've used it to do small framing in the attic for insulation and then used it to staple all the insulation. I've used it to blow out the garage, blow leaves and grass clippings off the driveway, and I'm even learning to use it for small paint projects. There were two minor issues I discovered initially, but neither are a problem as far as I'm concerned. The first was some confusion on installing washers on the wheels. The instructions showed installing washers, but washers were not provided. I believe CAT changed their wheel design and the washers are no longer needed. CAT needs to change their directions to omit installation of washers. I also noticed that my unit was shutting off at 120 psi instead of the advertised 125 psi. Furthermore, the RED zone marking on the pressure gauge starts at about 115 psi, so the pressure on my unit was entering the RED zone. I talked with a factory technician and he said the unit is designed to operate safely at 125 psi. He sent me a video which showed how to calibrate the unit to kick off at 125 psi. As for the RED zone markings, CAT purchased gauges from a third party. CAT could probably customize the gauges for their units but that would drive up the cost. As long as you can read numbers, you can verify your unit is operating in a safe range. I just know that when the needle enters the RED zone, my unit is about to kick off. Everything works fine on the unit and I've had no issues with any leakage. I'm very pleased with the purchase and would definitely recommend this unit.
