A solid workhorse! Oct 06, 2004 By Rayder53
I researched many compressors before purchasing this one. What I liked about it the most was it was built to last!!! A solid steel roll cage frame, direct drive cast iron pump and it is oil lubed unlike the oil less Porter Cable that just burned up!!! But also sometimes it's the little things about a tool that make it a pleasure to use, like the ball drain valve that will empty the compressor in less than five seconds, a lot less noisy than my old pancake unit and a quality soft rubber cord. Sure a cord is a very small part of the overall tool, but i can't stand it when i spend hundreds of dollars of a tool and it comes with a cord that's impossible to wrap up when it's 30 degrees ( makes me wonder what other cheap parts are inside )One final thing i would like to add is this unit produces far less moisture than most similar units!!! I use a moisture filter on both of the quick disconnects and i'm sure the air running throught them is dry, especially for the oil less tools i have.

DeWalts (Emglows) new compressor Jun 18, 2004 By Anthony J Buckwash
Looks sharp, provides plenty of air with two outlets, runs quiet. Only negative would be this is fairly heavy (compared to pancakes). I would not recommed for a finish carptenter who may need to carry it from room to room or upstairs on a daily basis.

A Big Disappointment Dec 13, 2004 By Patrick D.
I bought this compressor for use in my home shop with the idea that it would also come in handy on some renovation projects that require portablity. When it arrived & I got it out of the box, I was very impressed with the solid construction & good design. Imagine my dismay when I cycled it to full pressure for the first time & heard a noticable hissing sound. I timed it, without any tools (or even a hose) attached & the compressor cycled after about 8 minutes. Examination of the area around the control panel revealed that the air was leaking from the regulator, exiting from a small hole in the regulator body. I contacted Amazon.com & they immediately offered to replace the compressor with another identical unit at no charge to me, including all shipping charges. The new compressor arrived at my front door before I could even get the old one shipped back (thank you Amazon.com for the outstanding customer service!). That same evening I got it unpacked, put in the oil & fired it up. The new unit had the exact same problem as the first one, only worse!!! It would only hold air for about 3-4 minutes before cycling. And again, I traced the problem back to a faulty regulator. Two in a row is enough for me -- for all I know, Amazon.com has a warehouse full of these defective units. On contacting them a second time, they agreed to take both units back & issue me a full refund.

Throughout this bad experience, Amazon.com has done everything possible to make it right for me. I am very much less impressed with DeWalt/Emglow quality assurance. It's pretty unbelievable that a problem this obvious wouldn't be caught at the factory. I won't have time to research & buy another compressor until after the Christmas holidays, but it's a safe bet that DeWalt is now at the bottom of my list. I'm very disappointed in a brand that I had come to associate with top quality & reliability.

Not recommended for putting hardwood floors down Dec 03, 2006 By A. Jonsson
I just bought this compressor to use for nailing down hardwood floors. I quickly discovered why Dewalt does not specify the operating pressure for their compressors. (I at least can't find any specification) The Dewalt 55152 compressor shuts off at maximum 100 PSI, and then kicks back in when the pressure gets down to 80 PSI. So in reality this is just an 80 PSI compressor. Pathetic. Way to low to drive the nails/staples through the hardwood floor. How can Dewalt specify that this is a 3.8 CFM @ 100 PSI compressor when it can't even maintain 100 PSI. The tank is rated at maximum 130 PSI.

From the Dewalt website. "4.0 CFM delivered at 90 PSI pump provides rapid recovery". How is that possible when the compressor does not even turn back on at let's say 81 PSI? The compressor can't even maintain 90 PSI.

I was also disappointed in how much it vibrates. It dances all over the concrete floor.

So stay away from this compressor if you need more than 80 PSI pressure. (I suspect all Dewalt electric hand carry compressors.)

I love it Apr 16, 2006 By Woodchip
Great compressor, even if it is a little heavy. I'd rather lug this beast around than listen to my old Porter Cable. only problem I've had is cold starts are not very good. If it's under 50 outside it trips the circuit breaker on the motor a couple of times before it will start.
