Pros

The makita mac2400 is very quiet compared to the average airless pancake compressor. This is much quieter than any prior compressor i have owned. It is also quieter than my older air cooled model.

This is very portable, but not exactly light to move around by the hand-hold. I strapped it to a small lightweight wagon and i can easily wheel it wherever i need it. It's compact and has a comfortable handle that makes it fairly easy to manage--like ...  Read More

Instructions for installing the air intake filter and compressor oil are straightforward. The included oil is fine for break in purposes - the instructions tell you to run the compressor with no load for 20 minutes to perform the break-in.

Quality


Quality seems wonderful and i can see it being around a long time.

The quality of the air compressor is very evident from the flawless paint to the quiet running compressor motor.


If it's durable i'll be happy with the purchase.

Shipping


I'm more concerned about the shipping of it.


The directions are simple and the shipping box contains the necessary oil to get it working.

Packaging/appearance


Box was ripped when we received it and all of the oil inside machine leaked everywhere all over air compressor, packaging and contents.

Competitiveness


I used it to put on my new house roof with a bostitch roof nail gun.


I still have my 40 year old campbell hausfield 3hp 220v monster if i ever need to run a 3/4 impact driver, or sand blaster, but...  Read More


Very quiet compared to the pancake models.


This one replaced a 2004 model, different brand.
