stan A small compact compressor that's lightweight easy to handle.For small installation jobs.Now I don't have to lug around my large compressor for a few window or trim mouldings. For Finish Work, What A Back Saver For many years, I used to lug around a 6 gallon pancake compressor to install trim. Finally, I got wise and invested in this Senco 1 gallon compressor and I've been one happy camper ever since. This compressor is so light and small, that maneuvering it around a house or addition with newly finished walls and floors saves a lot of worry and sweat. For installing new trim in an occupied house that is fully furnished, this compressor is especially valued. Where it's performance suffers is when I'm quickly shooting in 15 or 16 gauge finish nails along a long run of baseboard moulding. Therefore, for production finish work, you may want to consider a higher capacity compressor. Too small for a trim gun - ok for pins On the plus side, it's small and light - I can one-hand this and the bag with all three of my trim guns. It's also very quiet. Does fine with a pin gun, ok with 1/4" stapler. This compressor is smaller than I expected and cycles too frequently with 15 ga. trim gun for any kind of production work. You have to plan your work around it. Part of that may be due to the fact that I live at 9000'. I have used it with an air nozzle but that seems to be really pushing it - starts smelling hot. Does perform better than the P/C pancake compressor that I returned. I think for what you're getting it should be cheaper. As far as running a framing gun off of it, you need your head examined. Not That Quiet My wife ordered this compressor to run her engraving tool for her crafts. We wanted something quieter and smaller than my large compressor so she could handle it and operate it inside the house. This compressor is small and light enough for my wife, but it's not that quiet. Haven't decided yet whether to return it or keep it and enclose it in a box to help muffle the sound.
