found in EC10SC's reviews: A GOOD LITTLE COMPRESSOR - THIS IS A GOOD COMPRESSOR FOR THE HOMEOWNER/DIY-ER WHO WANTS THE POWER TO RUN NAIL GUNS, BUT DOESN'T NEED THE SIZE REQUIRED BY A PRO. I HAVE USED MINE TO RUN A CONSTRUCTION NAILER (PORTER-CABLE FR-350), A COIL-ROOFING NAILER (BOSTICH), ALONG WITH OTHER TOOLS. A GOOD VALUE ESPECIALLY WHEN BUYING THE PACKAGE DEAL (COMPRESSOR,NAILER,HOSE). ( NONE OF WHICH MATTERS IF YOU LEAVE IT IN THE GARAGE AND ADD EXTRA AIRHOSE INSTEAD.

found in CPFAC2600P's description: com Review
This Porter-Cable 2-horsepower, 6-gallon pancake compressor transports easily but has plenty of capacity and power--enough to support heavy use of brad and finish nailers and moderate use of framing nailers. Features include a high-flow regulator, an easy-to-read air pressure gauge, automatic thermal overload protection, an industrial-style quick-connect body in the air outlet, and a long-life motor with replaceable brushes. The compressor weighs 32 pounds and has a handle built into the motor housing, so it's relatively portable. This Porter-Cable is as convenient and easy to use as any compressor out there, and it's just about ideal for brad and finish nailers that are being used inside people's homes on a regular basis. --Jonathon Tudor

found in CPFAC2600P's reviews: bad compressor - I purchased a combo pack, 1 month after the warranty ran out the compressor stopped working, I took it to a locate service center , which stated motor barins where gone and it would be $240 to replace, it was cheaper to buy a new one. When I emailed portercable , it took a long time for a response , by then i had bought a new ( different make)compressor. they build them so you have to buy more parts then you need. PorterCablecompressor - I have had no problems with the compressor. portercablecompressor - I purchased the 6 gallon pancake compressor in OCT 03, did not use it until Jan 04, used for (2) months,it is extremely noisy, heats up, stops working after 15-29 minutes of use. PorterCable CPFAC2600P Compressor - Pro: Great little compressor for mobile and small shop use. I use it very often to run air nailers for doing molding on the house and back out to the garage to run a paint/finish sprayer. Little compressor is full of hot air - I've owned this compressor for about 1 year. I spoke to the PorterCable rep at the Columbus wood show last month. Solid little compressor, won't pop your breakers - I previously owned the PorterCable 135psi, 3hp compressor but when I moved to my new house, with slightly low voltage, it was nearly impossible to use without popping breakers every time the beast fired up. power but not reliable - I bought this compressor for it's light weight, portability and compact power all of which it lived up to until it broke within 40 hours of use. After calling PorterCable they proved to be less than useful telling me that I would have to drive the unit an hour to get fixed under warrenty and were unsympathetic to my situation. FINALLY BOUGHT A COMPRESSOR - I ALWAYS WANTED A COMPRESSOR FOR MY OWN AND JUST RESENTLY I BORROWED MY NEIGHBORS COMPRESSOR TO FILL UP MY BOAT TRAILER TIRES WITH AIR. I LIKED THE PORTER-CABLECOMPRESSOR THAT I BORROWED SO MUCH THAT I WENT ON LINE LOOKING TO GET ONE FOR MYSELF. AFTER LOOKING ON LINE FOR THE BEST PRICE, I ORDERED THE COMPRESSOR THROUGH AMAZON. Great Little Unit - I bought my PorterCable pancake compressor over 3 years ago and it hasn't missed a beat. Once pneumatic, you never go back - The Porter-Cable 2HP 6-gallon pancake compressor is a reasonably powerful and reasonably portable aircompressor. I only recently purchased one but I am already sold on pneumatic tools, which the PC 6-gallon compressor operates surprisingly well. Although many pneumatic tools, such as air hammers, drills, and sanders, consume quite a bit of air (generally in the neighborhood of 5 CFM at 90 PSI), I have found that my PC compressor does just fine with its modest 2. My one complaint is that the motor and compressor are a bit louder than I expected. Then again, the noise of the compressor is hardly noticeable above the din of an air hammer, so I'm not sure it really matters.
If you enjoy using power tools and you have not yet experienced the pleasures of pneumatic gizmos, you should consider purchasing a small but serious compressor like the PC 2HP 6-gallon pancake. It's truly amazing how versatile compressed air is; basically any tool that runs on electricity also comes in a pneumatic version (well, except for arc welders). And, in my admittedly novice opinion, the pneumatic versions have many advantages; they are more durable (with surprisingly few moving parts), often cheaper, and usually more powerful than their electric counterparts.
But be warned! If you take the plunge into pneumatic tools, there is an endless stream of items you will find yourself purchasing: air tool lubricants and cleaning kits, in-line oilers, air hoses and gauges, quick connectors, air filters, oil-water separators, Teflon tape, universal air hose joints, air manifolds, blowguns with assorted nozzles, etc.)
One odd thing I've noticed is that the PC 6-gallon compressor is virtually identical to the Craftsman 6-gallon compressor, right down to the paint job. I love this litte work horse! - This Compressor is a great value,you will not find a better one for this price.I have used this compressor with a finish nailer and have had no down time at all.The brad gun alone sells for a 100 bucks! The combo pack has everything you need to start driving brads right out of the box,Thanks portercable for a great machine at an attractive price.Everyone can now afford to become an "airhead" Once you do you will never go back to a hammer again. Good compressor for a good price - I've owned a large compressor for years and needed something that can easily be ported anywhere - the large one is nice, but combersome for small jobs. Stick with the brand names like PorterCable - you get what you pay for.
This small compressor is actually used a lot more than my original compressor.
Spraying paint I haven't tried and probably would not work well - it just doesn't have the air delivery. That is what my large compressor is used for.
It is an oil-less compressor - so it is relatively noisy but noise means power, no? :) . not reliable - At first it lived up to PorterCable's reputation: worked great and was moderately priced.
The bundled packages they have now with this model (the compressor with a brad nailer and finish nailer) are very appealing price-wise, but don't be suckered as I and the many others above me have.

found in C3151's reviews: Fine for finish nailers - This compressor is LOUD and ear protection should be worn if you work near it. It can't keep up with one PorterCable Mag framing nailer when bounce nailing sheeting and runs constantly. ok compressor - I've had this compressor for about 3 years and while it is a good compressor I find it to be very loud compared to others in the same class. Finally Portercable needs a better system for the cord. Porter-Cable C3151 - I asked tech support if this could just need to have the regulator adjusted - they said no; take it to a repair center. Left at repair center; after repair, informed they 'adjusted the regulator. Also doesn't appear to put out the volume of air advertised.

found in CPFC2TV3525VP's reviews: I can get it cheaper!! - This is a compressor made by Devilbis Air Products, a division of Pentair, who also owns Delta Woodworking and Porter-Cable.
I have done some research and a two-stage compressor like this one is quieter and has more capacity than an equivalent-sized single stage unit. Not too big or too small - Looked at various oil-lubed products including the PorterCable 6025. Keep in mind this product is made by the parent company of PorterCable and sold through the other store with it's own name on it. Oddly the oil lubed PorterCable 6025 only carries a 3 year warranty, and chain store's version was way more expensive and had less warranty (1 year) vs. Can run my air ratchet or 1/2' impact quite a long time without turning on. A sander (especially a high-speed unit) uses an awful lot of air and under heavy sander use I think this unit would be "strained". Bottom line if you need a compressor but the smaller 15 to 20 gal types are not enough and a big 60 to 80 gal. Good Compromise - The compressor is very easy to set up and use. The compressor has a very solid feel and is very heavy. They are adequate for moving the compressor around the garage, but would not work well on stairs or outside. In my opinion the compressor is loud, particularly if you are in a closed room. However the rumble of the motor is much more tolerable than the high pitched whine of some of the other compressors I checked out. I don't think I would trust the shipment to UPS because the unit is heavy and some parts could be easily damaged.
