Solid.
September 20, 2017
Solid piece of equipment. Has been flawless with the Freeman guns so far. Some reviews speak about a leak. So far, none. Holds pressure and cycles quickly. Like it better than my old Porter Cable.
Purchased the DeWalt and so far happy.
October 6, 2016
Upgraded after buying another brand from a big chain store; both failed and had to be returned. Purchased the DeWalt and so far happy.
Good so far
April 18, 2016
After much research settled on this one for general air needs around house and garage. Worked perfectly out of the box - performed 15 minute open valve burn-in even though not required on newer units. Left 150 psi in tank to test for leaks - went three weeks still at 140 psi. Use industrial connectors for hoses and tools - not automotive.
Get what u pay for. dewalt knows ita products
March 28, 2016
Took me a while to switch everything to dewalt I was all about craftman but dewalt has really put in the time to thier products to pull ahead of the rest. Have not had one problem yet. And I really like this compressor has the two valves so if u need to u can have two tools going at once. Clearly this is a smaller unit its not a 50 gallon but for smaller jobs it does what it was built to do.
Quiet and light
February 27, 2016
I spent a little more on this to replace my cheap Chinese dual tank compressor after it leaked oil and seized. I find it just as good but much quieter when I have it in a room running a nail gun. Also, it's weight makes it a lot easier to lug around, up stairs, etc. it's also clean. The only thing I miss is a shut off valve so I don't have to remove the hose or shut off the power when not in use.
Dewalt qualtiy, worth the price.
January 26, 2015
I almost did not purchase this item because it cost more than the other (more popular) comparable offerings from Bostich and Porter Cable. In retrospect I am glad I did. It is relatively quiet, and works just as I had hoped it would. I am a Dewalt fan and have many of their 20 and 12 volt battery tools which all have worked great for me.One thing of interest I can add. I read on several reviews of other pancake compressors that a break in procedure of running the motor with the drain open for 15 minutes was crucial for continued long term use. However after going through the instructions carefully, I did not see this requirement. I called Dewalt and was told that this was true for their older models but was not needed for this model. He said just start using it as you need to right out of the box. He said it would not hurt it to do the break in procedure, but it was definitely not necessary.

As advertised
October 8, 2017
Hose works fine. Not a very durable hose but also not expected to be, and price is ok so no complaints. I would give 5 stars but I would hope it would be a little better built, I’m not sure how long it would last.
Convenient to have in garage.
July 31, 2017
Great addition to my garage! Easy install to wall (out of the way!) and very convenient. Definitely beats a rolled up hose laying on the floor or getting in the way or getting tripped over. Seems to be well made and working ok so faR. Hopefully holds up over time. Love it so far!
Works as advertised.
July 10, 2017
Bought this for my father-in-law. He mounted it to his shop wall and indicates it works very well. We used it to air up tires outside his shop the other day. It worked great.

Love this hose reel after fighting the hose for many years wrapping it around the compressor. Should have purchased one years ago.
Better than some brands
May 29, 2016
Works well but need to feed the hose in when retracting or it binds up inside. Hose appears durable. I had another brand and the hose started leaking several places after only a month. Sturdy mounting bracket and swivels out of the way if needed.

November 11, 2015
We've got 5 bikes, snow blower, riding lawn mower, go cart, wagon, and an old Town & country with aluminum rims that leak air... I was constantly dragging the compressor out to fill tires... it was maddening! I bolted this thing to the outside of my garage drilled a hole in the garage to feed the hose through and presto I have an air station just as convenient as the gas station!!!

Good quality, much cheaper than in the big box store, and the clip for the stems works great
December 15, 2016
This is an initial review. I will update it if anything significant changes. The product I received was as indicated and for a much cheaper price than the local big box store had them for sale. I used this to inflate all the tires on our Jeep without issue including the hard to reach spare. I really like that it clips onto the stem. No more juggling trying to hold the inflator in place at the exact angle needed to seal it. Thus I was able to watch the gauge while I inflated my tires. I like the pressure release button so I can more accurately adjust inflation pressures. The gauge markings are small but accurate. I needed a higher pressure gauge to inflate my truck tires, so no complaints there. I have three vehicles and three trailers, so I do expect it to get a lot of use. Initially, it seems up to the task.
Inexpensive, quality product that's FUN to use
November 28, 2016
This product is so great it makes me want to move some of my other ratings down to a mere 4 stars to illustrate the relative greatness. It only took a minute to install on my air compressor hose and then I quickly and accurately inflated the tires on two vehicles and three bikes. I was disappointed when I ran out of tires to inflate. :(

This should make the chore much more enjoyable when it's freezing out. Before I had a bare metal inflator with no guage that had to be pressed hard against the stem to inflate tires. This could be uncomfortable - especially in cold weather - and the process had to be repeated after checking the pressure with a separate guage.

Now, I just connect it to the valve stem (though it can slip a little if too much force is applied via the rather stiff hose) and the rest of the inflation is pretty much a one-handed operation which should even be possible while wearing gloves in cold weather.

Nothing like adding comfort and ease of use to the chore of keeping tires properly inflated for family safety and fuel efficiency.
Don't let the price fool you, this is the BEST inflator I've ever used
July 14, 2016
Quite possibly the best tire inflator I've ever used. The straight fitting on the hose end is VERY easy to use and much more convenient than the press-on-and-hold type or the push-on-and-throw-the-lever kind. You just push it on with very little resistance and let go of the lever. It holds itself on. This won't work on a SMOOTH valve stem but how often do you see that? The gauge has the right scale and is easy enough to read. I like that it's a dial gauge rather than numbers. The vent button is easy to use and in a good spot. The trigger allows for smooth, easy operation. You don't ever need to strain to press any control and they don't get stuck. It's easy to quickly and accurately get the pressure you want. The scale on the gauge is appropriate for tire use, unlike some where the scale goes up to 500 psi making 30 almost impossible to read accurately. This scale is 150psi, perfect for tires. Finally, the best part I discovered is that the gauge works all by itself without any hose or attachment. This means if all you want to do is check pressure you don't have to haul the entire hose and compressor around with you! You can check and bleed off air with just the inflator. And the price? This thing is WAY better than junk that's going for several times the price!
I can't believe I didn't buy this sooner. Great tool, Great Value!!!
January 8, 2016
This has become a favorite tool for my wife to use. I was a little leery of purchasing this due to some poor reviews on the product when I was buying. I wanted a quality tire gauge that I could easily fill and read the pressure in 1 tool. This is the answer!

I've bought several of these to give as gifts as whenever anyone comes over and sees the gauge/inflator in the garage they express how they need something like that. For $12 (at time of writing this) that is a simple gift to give to someone.

I installed a quick release using a good teflon tape. When I say good, I don't mean the white stuff. I have had mixed results with that junky thin white tape, so I spend the extra buck or two and buy the Oatey Heavy Tape, or Mega Tape when I am at the store. This stuff costs $2 and takes way less wraps to give you a quality seal. If people are complaining about leaks, it's likely the junk tape they are using.
I've had this tool in my garage for a year now and it is used by both my Wife and myself. In MN when it gets cold it's time to inflate those tires and this tool makes it simple and quick when it's -20 and you need to get to work.
Five stars if you take two min to fix the tire chuck.... one star if you dont!
September 10, 2014
If you read the reviews- lots of people complain about the tire chuck not working properly. When my unit came- I had the same problem on my 2014 car. I couldn't push the tire chuck down far enough onto the tire's valve stem to engage the pin valve to let air into the tire. Tried on my other two cars... didn't work on them either.
I was ready to send the unit back for a refund- when I noticed you could take the tire chuck apart, so with nothing to loose I disassembled it by simply unscrewing the clip-on piece from the threaded hose end. Inside the chuck was only one part... a 3/16" thick soft white silicone washer that was responsible for sealing the chuck to the valve stem while filling the tire. It was also the part that was preventing the chuck from fully sitting down far enough on the tire's valve stem to push open the tire's pin valve. So, I used a utility knife and shaved about 1/16" off the washer so instead of being 3/16" thick, now it was 1/8" thick. I put the modified washer (with cut side sitting against the brass chuck base not outward towards the tire valve- for better sealing), screwed the chuck back onto the threaded hose end and gave it a try out on my car.
Well, now the chuck clipped onto the valve stem very securely and instantly/correctly operated the tire's pin valve showing me the tire's pressure and allowing me to fill it to the correct pressure with just one hand.
So a two min fix with a utility knife/razor blade fixes the tire chuck problem... permanently!

As to the accuracy of the built in gauge... it exactly matched my Joe's Racing Garage (known for their accuracy) analog gauge... both showed my tires at 37PSI. I filled them up to 40 PSI and both gauges agreed once again.

If you fix the chuck, this inflator's a steal because it's all metal and good quality.. if you don't... it's worthless.

Good compressor for home hobby use
November 5, 2017
This air compressor does work pretty well for all things around the house. (airing up tires, compressed air cleaning of filters). I don't know how well it might work with a paint sprayer, nail gun etc. If you need to use this for air tools I think I would consider something larger. It might work well for the occasional paint job or maybe an air tool that doesn't require a large volume and high pressure. All the air tools I have ever used have been the industrial type and I doubt this compressor would do well with those.
Solid and a lot lighter than my previous model with identical specs.
September 12, 2017
Solid and a lot lighter than my previous model with identical specs. Worked with all of my current equipment without any issues.
Perfect garage compressor
September 5, 2017
Solid. Not that quiet. Takes time to fill, but for the price, very acceptable. Perfect garage compressor. This one is not for professional or high demand use, like roofing.
Works for me!
March 14, 2017
just fine for my uses now. A bit on the heavy side but still quite portable. After extended use, be sure to use the tank bleed valve to get rid of any moisture inside the tank.
Good.
July 30, 2016
Had to tighten a few fittings but other than that it has been a good fit for my needs. Works well with a 50ft 3/8 hose.

Air Hose, 25 Foot, 3/8 Inch ID, ¼ Inch NPT (M)
September 23, 2017
I bought the air hose my new compressor that I got on Amazon works good I just have to put plumbers tape on the ends so would Leak air.
Fairly well made...
July 22, 2017
I haven't used this yet, but it seems to be fairly well made. I hope it'll last a long time.
Great hose
May 13, 2017
Well constructed hose. Worked perfectly. It would be convenient if it were a bit more flexible.
Good quality hose for general use
October 19, 2015
I like the 3/8" diameter and I did not need a longer hose so this was perfect, except that I should have gotten one with a push on fitting to work with my compressor. This one has threaded connectors, so I had to purchase adapters locally. I used this to blow the water out of the pipes at my cottage to prepare it for winter.
Durable connections on a sturdy hose
April 7, 2015
This air hose is very solid, and has nice hardware at each end. My experience with cheap versions of these things is that the crimped connections at each end very quickly begin to leak as they are flexed back and forth a few times. After a few months of ownership, I found that this hose, which gets dragged around my shop at least twice a week is holding up beautifully. It's not the most flexible hose out there, but I I found that to be a pretty good trade off. The coating is quite slick and it slides around obstacles nicely.Everything about the item received was as described in the listing, an important point for me.
Great hose for the price!
September 8, 2012
I bought a compressor off Amazon which listed NO ACCESSORIES, so I got this hose to go with it. To my surprise, when the compressor arrived, it had a 25' coil hose! The hose that came with the compressor was thin plastic and only rated to 200 PSI, whereas the Campbell Hausfeld hose was rated 300 PSI. As I don't really care for coil hoses anyway, I was glad I had ordered this hose. The hose is very flexible and well-made. I holds air with no leaks, just like it's supposed to. With all due respect to the customer that thought air hoses should come with connectors: they don't. You have to buy the connectors yourself, no matter what hose you buy, and this one is no different. However, the hose feels a little sticky to me, like the plastic is just a little too soft, and that makes me worry about the long term durability of the product. So for that reason, I'm giving it only four stars. Great hose for the price, but not perfect.

Nice tool. only falters on the leak and it cost 1 star. but i'd buy another
March 25, 2017
Pro's
Love the long dongle with the air hose so I can keep the guage in my hand where I can also read it.
Really like the fact that it also has a release button.
It locks onto your threads so it won't just fall off.

Cons
Only one I can think of is no matter what i do i can't get it to seal with my adapter. it leaks no matter what, so i can't leave it attached.
I went as far as buying expensive Husky hi flow aluminum fixtures, used pipe dope AND teflon tape and still couldn't get it to seal. Tolerances are just too generous I believe.
A Man with Two Gauges Never Knows what the Pressure is
December 3, 2016
As my Dad used to say "A man with two watches never knows what time it is". And now that I have this pressure gauge I don't know what the tire pressure is on any of my vehicles tires. That's because I have tested this against 3 other tire gauges that I own and none of them read the same. I am going to assume that this one is correct. The "tire pressure' trouble light came on in one of my vehicles and with my other pressure gauges they all showed the pressure was correct. With this gauge it showed about 8 pounds less pressure so it is more in line with the sensors in my vehicles tires.
A great little tire pressure gauge/filler
July 28, 2016
I recommend getting the right connection when purchasing this or make sure that the connection fits directly to the air compressor line. I will need to get an adapter but I took it off an older air fitting so no big deal. It's pretty solid construction and makes it really nice to see the pressure as you fill up. This device limits the extra equipment required to accurately get the correct reading. Instead of having a pressure gauge and air fitting it's combined into one and makes it faster and easier to use. The quick realize tip makes a secure connection and is just that "quick". For the price and the ratings it's a no brainer. I would give it 5 stars if it came with other air connection adapter fittings.
Pretty handy. It's all in one and no looking for the lost air gauge or tip for the air hose
January 9, 2016
I ended up not being super amazed at this one. I like the G. H. Meiser regular gauge without the fill capability. This one: Accu-Gage H100X Professional Tire Pressure Gauge with Protective Rubber Guard (100 PSI)., Durable, easy to get the number you want and it seemed painless.
I may use the Campbell Hausfeld MP 6000 on a different project and love it but what I have for day to day work it doesn't do something right. Maybe it was the seal on the valve stem when you clamp it and let go expecting it to do its job. I saw the local tire guy one day and he aired me up. had a straight tip apprx. 6" long. He pushed that on a valve stem and then sat back to BS with me. Wow, it stayed on. I have never seen that before, only dreamed of it. And he was running about 150 + air pressure
Great inflator, sometimes difficult to get a perfect seal but overall I would buy this again, very convenient!
November 11, 2015
I recently bought this because I was so tired of the pressure your tire up, check it with a gauge, repeat and hope you don't mess up the angle and leak the air out just to start over again. I have had a pretty good experience with it so far. The built in gauge and relief valve button are very convenient. I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 because of a sealing issue I have with it that I discuss in con #2 below. Overall I definitely recommend this. Remember you will need an adapter to connect to an air hose as this does not have one built in or come with one.

Pros:
1. Very convenient!

2. Gauge seems accurate when compared to other gauges I have.

3. The tool feels well made. It has a heft to it that you want to have in your tools.

The 2 Cons I have are:
1. You have to connect your own pneumatic connector to the bottom. (This may be standard on these types of tools when purchased new but I didn't realize. Luckily I did have a couple of extra and some Teflon tape.)

2. I have an issue keeping the seal on the schrader valve. It will hold initially but with added pressure pushes itself off and starts to leak. You have to physically hold it against the valve. This is common on most inflators but with this one there is a mechanism at the end to hold the inflator to the tire with a spring powered "gate" of sorts. It either isn't strong enough or the overlap in the sealing rubber in the end is too much and pushed back against the valve. I seem to remember other comments about this but not sure if it was on this product or another. I have been meaning to trim the sealing rubber a little on the inside and try that.

not bad, could be better compressor
April 28, 2017
As long as this is plugged in it works okay, the minute it quits pumping even with no air hoses & such hooked to it, it looses air that is stored in the tank, this causes it to have to run more therefore loosing any efficiently it might have to power air tools better. I like the floor print & the ability to hook up 2 hoses if needed, & the cushy rubber feet helps with vibration, a bit noisy when running but lets remember it is a compressor. with that said if they could fix the leaking air problem from their hoses / clamps spots I would rate this much higher.
Three Stars
January 13, 2017
Pretty decent little compressor, could be a little cheaper though
Pressure stability terrible, but otherwise a good compressor
September 2, 2016
I've owned this compressor for several years now, though it gets use mostly for small tasks such as inflation and blowing chips. The following is what I like and don't like:Likes-1) Great maximum pressure - when using a framing nailer this compressor provides to gun with more than enough power to fully drive 3 1/2 inch nails.2) Fairly quiet - good for jobsites, but a little loud for more confined spaces. I find myself reaching for earplugs if I'm in the same room, however I also reach for earplugs when I'm running my standard shop vac.3) Reasonably lightweight - can be carried without much effortDislikes-1) Pressure regulation is lousy - when the pressure is set to any level lower than about 100 psi, the pressure quickly creeps up when not being used. When set to say 40 PSI attached to a blow gun, the initial burst is strong but the pressure immediately falls to around 20 PSI and stays there until demand is off. The pressure returns to 40 PSI. This is totally bad for tasks such as spraying finishes.Overall if you are using only for high pressure jobs such as nail guns or lower pressure tasks which don't require decent pressure control, this would be a pretty good compressor especially for the convenience and relative quiet. Forget it for spraying or even chip blowing unless you add an external regulator (which I did a while back)
Handle can easily break apart.
December 2, 2015
Surprise that DeWalt reputation to quality could make a handle strong enough to last, that the screw was loose and pulling it out of the unit you could see that it had separated from the plastic threads. My worry is waiting 7-10 business days to receive a replacement part for something that really should not break so easy.Dec 7 this is an update, DeWalt replaced air compressor with a new one wait time was 3 days. Handle looks good. Would like to add that the one I sent back and the new one I received I had no issues of air leaks. The picture of gauges was taken over 24 hours ago with air hose attached and showed no leakage at all. I have changed my star rating from 2 to 3 as I still feel the handle is still the weak point of design and could easily be made better by extending the steel bolt through the handle and using a steel nut to tighten.
Great compressor with a few flaws
June 30, 2015
Like all DeWalt products, this one appeared to be well built and better than the competition. Imagine my surprise when I discovered both hose fittings were slowly leaking air when attached to a hose and pressurized (leaking from the joint between the male hose coupler and female receiving end of the fitting). The problem appeared to be undersized ball bearings inside the fitting, which allow too much free play between the fittings, providing a way for air to escape.Rather than going through the the hassle of exchanging, shipping back, waiting for a replacement, etc., I simply replaced both fittings with better ones, which solved the problem. Mine have fewer but bigger ball bearings, allow no free play, and hold the hose fitting very tightly.After reading all of the glowing reviews, I was expecting to be completely blown away by the quality of this product. I'm still impressed, but far from blown away.The important components are all very well made, but leaky fittings in an air compressor is borderline inexcusable from a company with this type of reputation, presumed attention to detail, and supposed product engineering focus.July 1 update- today I noticed the tank pressure gauge is off by about 15 psi. Motor cuts out at indicated tank pressure of 145 psi, but regulated output pressure can be increased all the way up to 160 psi. Manufacturer claims max tank psi is 165. Disappointing to say the least. Maybe mine was made on a Monday morning. Planning on exchanging unit for another one.July 3 update- replacement unit arrived today. Holds pressure well, accuracy of both gauges is dead on. Still plagued by the leaky fittings issue, which I addressed the same way as the original unit. I'm much happier now that I have a properly functioning unit, despite having to change out the fittings... again.

Coat the hose in Baby powder or it will jam up in the reel
September 15, 2017
Mine looked to be repackaged from the non original tape on the box. i think the previous buyer stretched out the hose and just let it go like a tape measure due to the hose being all kinds of jammed up in the box.after fixing all that crap the hose still dident want to reel back in properly, it kept getting stuck to itself and jamming upluckily im a freaking genius and thought to put baby powder all over the hose to work as a dry lubricant. now it works perfectly fine
Good but one flaw
July 26, 2017
This product works as advertised, however, after using it for 3 or so months, the locking mechanism that keeps the hose in place once pulled out of its housing stopped working and it always recoils. I have pulled in every direction and speed yet is just gave up one day.

March 24, 2017
This hose seems kinda small. It also comes prekinked. I hope that won't be a problem.
Okay for the price, but not flexible enough
November 16, 2015
For the price, this air hose is fine but in my opinion it's too stiff and doesn't flex as much as I'd like it to. It's hard to roll the hose back up for storage and it looks like it would kink rather easily if you pulled on it. I guess that's true for any PVC hose, so I should have purchased a rubber hose instead. I'll probably use this as an extension hose and buy a more flexible leader hose so that I can manuever my tools more easily without feeling restrained by this hose.
Reasonable for limited infrequent use.
September 7, 2015
This is functional, but the retraction system is a little too sensitive. That said, once wall mounted it functions within expectations. I use this exclusively to inflate car tires, infrequently. I am not sure that with constant use it would hold up well.
worked well first 3 times and then....
October 23, 2013
The hose reel retracted well first three times and now has some problems locking the hose when pulled out. I have to wiggle and play with the length to get it to lock. It does not leak and thats good, the price is right and I use it for small things around garage, tires, blowing out garage, leaves and drying out boat.

Hose lock bad, otherwise great for the price!
February 23, 2016
Good item with one big exception, the stem lock is useless. It is supposed to lock the fill hose onto the valve stem so you can fill the tire and pay attention to the gauge. When trying to lock the hose on it doesn't hold the stem strong enough to use. Air constantly leaks out and the more you try the more air gets out. I tried pushing the hose on until the air stopped leaking out then letting go of the lock while keeping the pressure on the hose. As soon as I let go of the hose letting the lock take over air started coming out.
That said the gauge and fill works very good. You just have to hold the hose in place. Just slightly better than having a separate pressure gauge. Don't have to go from hose to gauge to hose, but it is so much better using one of these that works! Wish mine did.
Although the problem is small it is big enough in my mind to take it down 2 stars. Had the lock worked I would give it 5 stars. No it isn't as strong as a commercial air fill, but it isn't the same price either.
Poor tire valve stem fit
January 2, 2016
Product seem to be well made, but chuck that connects to the tire valve stem is difficult to get a tight connection - seems to leak air unless you push and hold it on fairly hard. I have another (Brookstone) tire gauge that fits the tire valve stem without problems, so pretty sure the Campbell Hausfeld product is the problem. The gauge is fairly accurate - within 1 PSI of the reading from the Brookstone unit, so am happy about that. Price is good and will use it, but not really an advantage over using a separate gauge and air source because of the poor tire valve stem fit.
I think this is a nice product and it works as advertised
September 21, 2015
I think this is a nice product and it works as advertised.
Having said that, I have several issues.
It came with no instructions and only by luck, did I discover the brass nut on the side of the handle is actually a pressure release button to adjust tire pressure if over-inflated. Who knew?
The handle comes with a threaded fitting that fits nothing. It is 1/2" x 3/8" and to use with a standard Air Compressor/Hose requires an adaptor which was not included and is hard to find. Most air tools have a 1/2" threaded handle that takes a standard hose 1/2" male thread, or a 1/2" threaded quick couple. I am not sure why the handle is 3/8" threaded, but I was able to find an adapter at ACE Hardware.
If the handle was threaded 1/2" I would give this device a 4-5 Star rating.
Buyer beware: This device needs an uncommon adapter to make it work with Standard Air Compressors and Hoses.

Quite, Lightweight, Leaks Air
April 28, 2017
After much research and the reliability of Dewalt products, I settled on the Dewalt compressor. Powered up the unit, waited for the compressor to fill up to full capacity, soon afterwords notice the pressure gauge going down. Applied soap and water to the outside fitting and notice air leaking through inlet valve. Debating whether to repair the unit myself and avoid warranty, or go through the hassle of replacing the unit and gamble on another unit.
I expected more out of the "Dewalt" Name.
April 17, 2017
It's quiet but it like the other reviews it leaks,shut regulator off and leaks internally. 70 PSI drop in 3 hours. I expected more out of the "Dewalt" Name. 30 second recharge(from 90 PSI) I gave it 2 stars because it is a lot quieter than my larger compressor
DeWalt JUNK!!!
April 13, 2017
JUNK! I'm here to tell you that I'm real impressed with this damn piece of junk. I bought it in February of 2016, used it 3 times, once to air up my car tires, once to air up my boat trailer tires, and once to air up the tires on a little wagon, and when I went air up those wagon tires, I heard air leaking under the hood of the compressor, but it was at least working. On the 10th of April, 2017, I went to air up my boat trailer tires again, and this time the air leak was so bad that it wouldn't even build up pressure. This air compressor is kept in my garage, tank drained the 3 times that I did get to use it, and sits on rubber cork mat.....not neglected by any means. $145.00....WASTED!!! It'll be a cold day in you know where when I buy ANYTHING with the DeWalt name on it.UPDATE: May 6th, 2017 A couple of days ago, I was bored and decided to tear this thing apart and see if I could find out what was wrong with it, if I could, I would attempt to fix it, and if not.......off to the junk yard, because I sure wasn't going to spend any more money on it getting it fixed. Well, once I got the hood/cover off it, I checked the hoses for wear holes, because this vibrated so bad right from the first time that I plugged it in and turned it on that it would walk all over the garage floor. And........IT'S LOUD!!!! No holes or lose connections on the hoses, and for a bit, I was totally dumbfounded! I couldn't see anything wrong with it. Then I started to look real close at the head and cylinder and I thought the head actually looked a little bit loose. Got a socket and ratchet and sure enough, all 4 machine screws on the head were just a little bit loose. Tightened them up, put all the plastic back together, plugged it in and turned it on, and sure enough, it worked again.Now, that being said, it IS slow to build up air, but that is to be expected with a small air compressor like this one. And did I mention that it's.......LOUD!!!!!!!!! I don't see how something that small can make so much dang noise! But at least now, it's now vibrating any where near as bad as it did, and it sits in one place now. As a test, this time I didn't drain the air from the tank to do a leak test, and this is now 3 days since the repair and it hasn't lost even 1 lbs of air pressure. This one will do......for now, but later this summer, I'm going to invest in one of those Blue 2.5 hp Big Bore "other brand" of air compressors. I'll give it one more star since I was able to get it working, but I truthfully still don't think it's all it's cracked up to be. And did I mention that it's........LOUD!!!!!!!

After amazon replaced my first unit a few weeks after getting due to it not working at all, I had my second one for less then a year and now it leaks air from inside the plastic top. Wont buy this junk again
Previous reviewers spot on regarding leakage
October 26, 2015
The compressor reaches 165 psi rather quickly, zero movement of the compressor while running due to it's thick rubber feet and fairly quite while running. Appears to be a well built unit. Only complaint, it LEAKED! Would bleed down 19 psi over a 2 hour period. A Dewalt factory service center is located within 6 miles of my residence. Dropped the unit off there and was advised the unit should be leak free and ready for pickup within 3 to 4 days. Dewalt's QC department has certainly missed the mark on this compressor.
Still evaluating it!
February 7, 2015
This is pretty light and makes not too muh noise. However it is not achieving the 165psi that the manufacturer promises. I am still trying to make it fire my gun. If not, I will return it.

So-so

Won't retract reliably, hose is stiff.
Does not lock.
April 24, 2017
Will not lock anymore when I pull out hose, I have to step on hose to keep it from retracting back onto reel.
Good for occasional use
April 11, 2017
It works. But you get what a pay for. Its stiff and I seem to be constantly fighting with it. Good for occasional use, but if you're using it all the time spend the extra $20-$30 for a good quality air hose.
Leaking Attachments
April 26, 2016
I have had this product for a couple months now. It is pretty good, but the attachments leak air when i use this hose as opposed to my other hose.
Easily Breaks
August 6, 2014
Bought this reel 13 months ago (of course the warranty is 12 months) and used this reel very seldom in my heated home garage being careful to control the retraction of the hose back into the reel when I was done using it. A small spring that assisted locking the hose in at different intervals broke rendering this reel useless. Save your money and purchase a better quality hose reel.

Center pin fell out after maybe 2 hours of use
December 8, 2016
This was a decent tool while it lasted, but that wasn't long - the center pin fell out. Really infuriating - the device was working fine, released the locking mechanism from one tire's valve stem and went on to the next tire and no flow. The gage was reading exactly the same pressure as the compressor's gage (rather than the pressure of the tire). The center pin in the part that locks onto your valve stem to let air in/out was just gone. Fell out, rendering the inflator useless for anything with a valve stem.Had this item for 17 months, and only used it only infrequently and only for car tires. I would estimate a total duty cycle of less than 2-3 hours.Looking for another brand, but the hose/valve stem locking part of almost all of them look identical. Possibly all made in the same factory in China!
Doesn't seal well, and I can't fix it.
January 5, 2016
I have the same problem as several others: the clamp doesn't hold the tip onto the valve stem tightly enough to make a seal. I had the same problem on my bike and car. I'm trying to jury rig something to get it to work. Other than that, it seems like a well made product.Update: I've spent too long trying to fix this. I removed the washer and trimmed it down, but I still can't get a good seal.Update: After trying a few different inflators, I've learned that this style of valve stem nozzle just doesn't clamp on to the valve stem securely. You always have to hold it in place. If you want one that will hold on by itself, you need to spring for the ones that look like this: http://www.amazon.com/GrimmTools-Digital-Universal-Inflator-Schrader/dp/B018TVL4Z6
Faulty
August 11, 2015
There is a little flap of metal that clamps down onto the inflator nozzle of your tire and this thing is so flimsy there's no chance it will last. It fell off after inflating 1 tire. Actually it's so small that I didn't even realize it and couldn't figure out why the inflator wouldn't hold. After carefully looking around I noticed it was lying on the ground next to me. So I reattached it and tried the 2nd tire with the same results. I can't imagine why someone built this thing & decided that was the best option. The rest of the assembly is fine. Too bad.
Great Concept, Flawed Execution...
July 17, 2015
Great concept, flawed execution on this, and repeated on many nearly identical products from other manufacturers. The clasp to attach the air line to the item to be inflated is hard to get to make a solid seal without much loss of skin off of ones knuckles, and causes my compressor to repeatedly turn on to replenish the air lost while trying to connect. Alas, the old faithful regular ball head end (no pressure gauge) is still the best and easiest to quickly and securely make the connection to a valve stem. A shame, as I've had good luck with other Campbell Hausfeld products...SUGGESTION: Put a ball head on the end of the flexible line instead of the current fitting; then one could get a secure (if hand held) connection and a gauge...
Works great, and nicely priced! - Edited -
November 18, 2014
EDIT 5/15/15: Dropping this from 5 stars to 2 stars. The gauge is not very durable AT ALL. It fell a rather low height in my garage and landed on the back blue metal side. I thought nothing of it until I went to use it next. The gauge is now at 40 PSI offset. Might be great for infrequent use but not to hold up for an avid DIY. Also, I was going to try and remove the gauge to fix it, but it's pretty much permanently attached, so I can't even just buy a replacement gauge. My wrench stripped the brass trying to remove it.---- Original Review ----Works great. Note: When pulling the trigger, air will flow regardless of whether the connector is locked on to the tire.To lock on, hold down the end latch, push on tire valve, and once firmly connected (you should stop hearing air leak) release the latch, and it will lock on to the valve. Then just pull the trigger for air!Great for hard to reach places. I use this on my motorcycles when the wheels are turned funny.
Don't be fooled by the 4 star rating.
March 29, 2014
The gauge is inaccurate reading much lower than actual pressure. To make it worse the higher the pressure the greater the inaccuracy. This could be unsafe depending on what you're inflating. As said by others, the clip on the nozzle that is supposed to hold the nozzle on the valve stem doesn't work well or at all. No matter what I did, I still had to hold the nozzle against the stem in order to fill the tire. Yes it's inexpensive and yes it can be made to work, but that isn't a reason to rate it higher than it should be rated. If you're willing to accept an inferior product because of the low price, then this item is for you. If you're tired of buying junk, and accepting mediocre products, then move on to one of better quality inflators.

75.5 dBA, Try 105 dBA!
September 28, 2017
I sold my Porter Cable to get a quiet compressor. 105 dBA on my decibel meter! The manufacturer says 75 dBA, yes maybe from 100 yards away. Nothing worse than false claims.
DeWalt 165 psi pancake air compressor
September 22, 2017
Have used it for maybe 10 hours in two months and it leaks air from pump.
DEWALT COMPRESSOR POOR PURCHASE
May 15, 2017
This piece of equipment was purchased in March2017and not put to use until today, May 15, 2017. It was used to build one birdhouse from soft pine with an air staple gun. The 6 gallon tank did not seem to hold air the way it should. Before the project was complete the compressor started making a huge racket like it was going to throw a rod and emitting smoke. My husband immediately shut it off and stopped using it. He restarted it for a moment and more noise ensued so he shut it off again and it remains off and unplugged. Because it is shrouded in plastic he cannot see what is wrong. Hopefully Amazon will make this right since the cost ($150.00) while not exorbitant, is more than we have to just throw away. I give it zero stars since it is a non-working piece of equipment but shows one star because it was required.
Leaks. Junk.
October 7, 2016
Zero stars. I bought it and returned it. It leaked. I wish that I had seen this YouTube video before I bought it.[...]
Broken out of the box
September 7, 2015
Broken right out of the box!!! Unfortunately I didn't need it or attempt to use it until more than 30-days after I received it, and now I'm understanding that I cannot return it, so I'm SOL (Shame in me). Turns on and makes noise, so the motor runs, but the tank never fills and almost no air pressure out of the hose. Unless I'm doing something wrong, this was a very disappointing first Dewalt purchase...really wish the return policy was more lenient, I'd like to give Dewalt another opportunity to impress me.
Doesn't automatically turn off + Awful support
August 5, 2015
Received quickly, however it doesn't appear to shut off at 165psi. I also noticed that the manual recommends testing the safety valve but doesn't have any information on how to accomplish that.I called their support line and informed them that it doesn't shut off and requested information on how to test the safety valve. They told me that this 165psi max compressor doesn't shut down until 220psi. They also informed me that to test the safety valve I should just leave it on until it blows. I am amazed at the lackluster assistance that I received, I had to confront their support person to get real information.I'm going to try support one more time, but I'm pretty sure I'm just going to return this piece of crap and buy some other brand.

You get what you pay for!!
August 17, 2017
At first I was going to give this a 5 star rating (due to the installation being relatively easy and great shipping)...but then as I turned to go inside, after completing the installation, I heard a loud pop. Then the unit began to leak air from the inside. Not sure why as the regulator was set to only 80 psi. Don't really want to disassemble and return as the leak isn't fast enough to keep me from being able to air up my vehicle tires.

After 6 months of use, it's garbage
December 5, 2013
The only thing this reel has going for it is the cheap price. But I guess you get what you pay for.From day 1 it was very balky to get it to retract. But the real problem came after six months of use. One day after extending the hose all the way, it would not retract, no matter what. I took it down from the ceiling and took it apart and got the mechanism unjammed. The spring must have unwound in the process or something because now the final 10 feet of the hose will not wind up.This is going in the trash, as soon as I can find a better one.Update: Get the Goodyear model 46731 hose reel instead. It costs more but it is a much better design, and quality all-metal construction.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002LQ7WKM/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Fell apart the first time I used it.
September 17, 2016
This POS fell apart the first time I used it. While trying to push it down far enough to attach it to the tire stem, the really cheap tiny piece of metal that holds it in place, fell out. I put it back in and tried again but this time it popped out and disappeared into the grass next to my driveway. I couldn't find it even with a magnet -- perhaps it's tin and not magnetic? I can still use the inflator by manually shoving it down on the stem and holding it in place with my fingers. This hurts and will not be an option in winter when wearing gloves. The gauge is also not accurate when used this way. I recommend you stay away from this expensive piece of junk.
My first real Amazon purchase disappointment. Despite some reviews advising against buying
July 17, 2016
My first real Amazon purchase disappointment.Despite some reviews advising against buying, due to the clamp's inability to remain attached to a tire valve stem, I decided to try for myself. Unfortunately, those reviewers were correct. This clamp is poorly designed in that it isn't strong enough to remain attached as it is: 1. Too weak a spring to provide adequate clamping pressure, and 2. isn't long enough in the attachment to get more than several lines of threaded valve stem in order to provide enough clamping surface to hold. The tire valve core has a spring which keeps the core in place to prevent air from escaping after filling (of course). But that valve core spring is too strong for this inflator's clamp to hold, in order to fill without the use of additional hands to secure the inflator to the valve stem while filling- defeating the purpose of single-operator usage capability.I procrastinated on testing this before the return allowance time period expired, so now it's just a paper weight.
CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP
May 28, 2016
I bought two of these. Neither one lasted long. I am an adult male and there are no children in my home. This item is used strictly for inflating vehicle tires. I bought two because they were on sale and it's always good to have an extra. WOW, did not realize I would need it that quickly. Both of these stopped latching onto the valve stems. Bothe of the gauges were so far off that my one vehicle would not let me drive it till I took air out of all four tire and yes I know how and when to put air into tires. They were on sale and still I overpaid. I made my decision to but based on PRice and name brand. Campbell Hausfeld is (was) a reputable name. Apparently they have allow the name to be used on cheap imitations or they are no longer the company I grew accustomed to in the field. You could always Rely on them. NOT THESE. DO NOT BUY !!!
I like the continuous pressure gauge
August 23, 2015
I like the continuous pressure gauge, but the inflation connector is very low quality and falls apart every time I try to secure it to a valve stem. See attached pictures. I am unable to use it.
Not for "tire inflators". Clip-on connector is terrible.
April 10, 2015
Great concept for filling tires IF you have a compressor (and NOT a "tire inflator"). The input for this device is standard for compressor quick-connect type hoses. It is NOT the same connection as a standard auto tire connection; this means that, if you have a "tire inflator" pump that is meant to screw directly onto a standard auto tire connection, you will NOT be able to connect this gadget.Update 2017 April: Ok, I tried and tried for months and months to develop the "knack" for attaching this to the tire's inflation stem. I had this whole "twist of the wrist" thing I was trying to teach myself. It was hopeless. Then, when my wife wanted to start using it for her car, it simply would NOT work for her at all.I'm going to ditch it and try to find a good one with the "Universal Lock-On Connection" (the little plastic lever on the back)Also, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but this is the only device that I quick-connect to my compressor that leaks air like crazy unless you twist the quick-connect "just so". My guess is a not well machined male connection to the quick connect.
Two and Inflators and Both Defective
March 14, 2015
I rarely give 1 star reviews, but this one unfortunately deserves it. The first gauge I bought seemed to be defective. When the trigger was pulled it stuck in the on position and resulted in the air compressor tank being quickly emptied when the chuck was removed from the tire. I asked for a replacement from Amazon and was quickly sent a replacement. I used the second one for a while doing perhaps a dozen tire fills and checks on my F-350 and my travel trailers four tires. When I went to use it yesterday on our Town and Country it did the same thing as the first one and the trigger stuck in the on position. I realize these are not supposed to be used over 100 psi, this should not have mattered though as I only turned the regulator up to 90 psi to fill the truck to 80 psi, and was only using 75 psi at the regulator. I'm very disappointed in Campbell Hausfeld right now. I know they don't make the best air products, but I've had one of their 12V compressors for 12 years now and it still works great. Apparently their quality assurance department is now non existent. I attempted to use their website to get support or report the issue to see if they can make it right, but their IT department must be joining the quality assurance department on vacation since the links to warranty support and "contact us" were broken as well.
