Senco PC1010 Compressor reviews
Very good.
For what I use it for it is perfect. (Cleaning the lint from my long-arm quilting machine). It is compact, quiet and pressures up in just a few minutes.

Great For Smaller Jobs
This is a great product but it has the obvious limitations because of its size. It is a compromise to get quiet and lightweight which it does well. It drives 8 to 10, 2.5 inch 16ga. finish nails before it needs to recharge itself. The recharging takes about 30 sec.
The construction appears solid. The major advantage of this unit is it's portability! At 20 lbs. it's a dream to move around and take to awkward places. If you can live with the described limitations, this is a good bet.

It's a Keeper!
I was in search for a lighter and more circuit breaker friendly air compressor, 90 percent of my use is 15ga,18ga and pinners that I use in carpentry work. With the Senco PC1010 I feel confident that I won't trip the circuit breaker in a customers home even with a 50ft ext cord, it's very quiet,super light weight, it is what it is... a small compressor but it does the job that I need it to do. I very satisfied with this tool.Very good quality and workmanship. It is a keeper while my 4 gal Makita (too noisy, very heavy and trips circuit breakers most of the time) sits collecting dust.

Small, Quiet, Powerful
I use this compressor for 23 ga pin nailer, 18 ga brad nailer, 15 ga nailer. It keeps up, is very light, and EXTREMELY quiet (only scares ONE of the dogs :)). Great for small spaces and large or small jobs. If you want to use it as an air-hose to remove dust, buy a different compressor, use it for its intended purpose and you will not regret buying this product.
I own other larger compressors, but for its size and staying within its parameters, it is extremely well made and useful.

People keep borrowing it!
This little gem is one of the best tools in the shop, my co-workers keep borrowing it. When we go out on a job, I grab it with the hose and gun attached and throw it on the seat beside me. We get to the job site and I walk upstairs and start shooting on trim before everyone else can gather their tools. Yeah, it takes awhile for it to get up to pressure and you can't bump nail a big gun with it, but who cares. If I need more air I'll borrow someone else's big heavy two horse job and let them carry the thing around. I shoot staples, 23ga., 18ga. and 15ga. and I use my blower if there's not too much to blow. The homeowners (and I) LOVE it because it's so quiet. If it died today I'd order another(from Amazon) tonight!
