Stealth 20 Gallon Ultra Quiet Air Compressor,1.8 HP Oil-Free Peak 150 PSI 68 Decibel, 5.5 CFM @ 40 PSI 5 CFM @ 90 PSI Silent Long Life Electric Air Compressor W/Wheel for Garage

Solid. I was somewhat surprised at the weight of the compressor, but it moves easily on its wheels. While not whisper quiet, it is much quieter than any compressors I’ve had experience with in the past. And it holds air when not in use. I was busy in the house when it was delivered, but sounded like it was dropped off by a lift truck. It was left right in front of my gate door. Perfect.

When this arrived via UPS, the delivering driver came to the house and got me to come look at the box before unloading it. It was almost completely destroyed and had been profusely taped up making it look even worse. We took it off the truck, brought it into my garage and unpacked it. There was not a mark , dent or scratch on it. I could not believe it! Plugged it in, ran the break in procedure and all the test which it passed with flying colors! It’s a keeper and continues to fulfill it’s duty with zero issues. It is the quietest air compressor I have ever used. Good job Stealth for building, what is at this point, a very good product!

This compressor is definitely quiet-ER than a regular one but it’s still louder than our other quiet models made by Husky. Less rattling than a standard one makes.

The compressor is well built, nicely painted, and easily maneuverable. The only items that had to be installed were the two mufflers. While the noise level at 20 feet is 75dBa on my SLM, twice as loud as the manufacturer claims, it's quieter than most other compressors I've owned. It's also slower to build to maximum pressure than other compressors - that slowness is in line with Stealth's advertising.The drain valve is a bit of a pain to reach so I installed an extended tank drain kit and the valve is now at the bottom front of the compressor which is much easier to reach.For my home shop, I think it's a good value for the money. I would have rated it five stars if the noise level had been as advertised.

I use the compressor to detail cars. When I blow air under the seats to remove crumbs or use the Tornador it uses s lot of air and the 20 gallon unit is able to keep up. I have seen a Tornador powered by a 6 gallon pancake compressor but I think anything less than the 150 psi and 5 cfm 20 gallon would be insufficient. Any larger and it wouldn’t fit in my van. Any smaller and it wouldn’t do the job as well. The unit performs flawlessly and is very quiet especially inside the van. In order to get the right fittings I had to go to a detailing shop. No luck at the hardware store. They were no help at all. I knew more than the employees.Update: the compressor started refusing to cut on after the pressure got down to 120psi. I’ve been having to let all the air out of the tank before it will kick back on. I thought it was overheating but sometimes it refuses to come on at all when I first go to use it. I though maybe the extension cord gauge was not the right size or was too long. But sometimes it works flawlessly with the same setup. I can’t find any real pattern. The manual says to check page seven for the right extension cord gauge but looking over page 7 there is no such information. Customer service is practically non existent. They have no authorized warranty repair locations at all. The young kid who answers the phone just looks at a copy of the user manual and tries to fumble through a guess as to what it might be. He wanted to send me a pressure switch and have me install it but I’m not handy so I can’t install a pressure switch. So now he says he’s going to try to get me approved to send me a new unit. We’ll see what happens. I’m not happy because the unit was brand new with very little use. I bought it in January and never started using it until March. It’s April and I’m already having problems.

I bought this compressor specifically for the “Stealth” feature and it did not disappoint! Yes, you can still hear it. But it’s significantly more quite than my other compressor. At least now I don’t get startled every time it comes on. Along with being quite, it does everything is says it can do and it’s great addition to my home workshop. Definitely a good purchase for me.

I bought this compressor specifically because of the advertised lower noise level. It is so much quieter than my old model. I can actually hold a conversation when standing next to it. The compressor seems well built and I'm very happy with it.

So you will not want this next to your bedside, but it is quieter than other (even smaller) air compressors I have had in the past. Set up was pretty straight forward and easy. My biggest complaint is that it is heavy and not the easiest to maneuver around. It can be done, but will take some strength. Lifting it up to a truck bed will certainly be a chore. If you are just using in your shop - I think it is great. I also use mine to blow out my sprinkler, so need to move it around a bit more, but it is certainly better than a 6 gallon for that job. Overall I would recommend. My complaint is self induced, since I bought a 20 gallon - it will be heavy
