Customers are mixed about the pressure build up of the air compressor. Some mention that it runs their air tools and even has the pressure to blow out their tires. The tank pressure is adequate for a DIYer and the regulator is. However, others say that regulating the pressure is tricky and inconsistent in spurts. The pressure of about 90psi, but it does not build pressure past this point. The regulator switch does not maintain the pressure you set it to.

"...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..." Read more

"...I leave it on 24/7 and it doesn’t leak. My last compressor leaked in a place that couldn’t be repaired so I couldn’t leave it on...." Read more

"...Don't forget to get some teflon sealing tape, EVERY connection leaks unless taped...." Read more

"...had a very slow leak at the top and the bottom of the pipe. Resealed both ends of the pipe, works great, So far, no more issues...." Read more

I'm losing my faith in Amazon! DEWALT Pancake Air Compressor, 6 Gallon
This was purchased from Seller Amazon - They shipped it, and it was listed as new. Clearly its used, see pictures. Amazon has an alternative used unit on their listing, saves you $9, not worth it to me so I got a new one, but they still sent a used one to me. I've used it and it works just fine. My initial review for the functionality is that it works as expected. Not worth my time to return it with the new Amazon policies, and the fact that it works fine. This isn't the first used new item I've gotten from Amazon either. With some of the stuff that's been taken away from my Prime membership, not sure if I will renew it going forward.
Thank you for your feedback

4.0 out of 5 stars Received a USED item, but keeping it anyway
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2023
Really is a bummer when you receive an expensive and large item used. Definitely wasn’t gonna box it back up and ship it back if it works just fine, which it does. Carbon footprint, planet earth, that whole thing. Just choke on it and keep it because the product itself was just fine. Minus one star for it being used, and it would be minus two stars if I didn’t think it was that good.

I’ve had it almost a month and it’s a great compressor. It’s for home use in my garage, amateur DIY stuff, light duty but I do use my compressor at least once or twice a week. I leave it on 24/7 and it doesn’t leak. My last compressor leaked in a place that couldn’t be repaired so I couldn’t leave it on. Always wanted a compressor I could leave on so when my last one sparked and sizzled and breathed it’s burnt electrical smell of death into my garage, I ain’t gonna lie, I did a little happy dance. It was not a Dewalt but I do have the Dewalt hose reel that has been patiently waiting for a matching Dewalt compressor. It’s way quieter than my last compressor and the tank fills up faster. Last one was same size tank. This is only the second compressor I ever owned so don’t have much to compare it to other than my last one. Hopefully won’t ever have to buy another one. If I do, I’ll make sure I update my review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Effective
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2024
Bought this air compressor for my dad, heard no complaints from him so far. He's saying it's easy to store and transport to and from not that heavy. Only thing when it came the bottom of the compressor looked dirty like underneath it. Overall, it's great, I would buy it again.

Don't mind the pics I bought this last year September! So, it has been in use.
