5A Great Little Powerhouse  Apr 19, 2008 By Michael Aldridge
This is a great, comparatively light, little compressor that drives my stapler; brad driver, 15 and 16-gauge finish nailers with ease. I have high expectations for any Senco product, so I did notice one minor design flaw if you plan to use a filter at the compressor connection.

The compressor's female quick release is facing more toward the roll bar frame instead of being angled away from it. There isn't enough physical space to clear a large in-line air filter, so instead of changing out the factory release, I simply used a swivel fitting on the air line (see my photo) to angle the filter and hose away from the frame. No big thing.

The stacked tank design doesn't seem to be as loud as pancake compressors, but is about what you would expect of a 1-1/2HP compressor. I still intend to fashion a noise shroud for indoor and woodshop use.

I should also mention that it took two tries to get a compressor delivered that wasn't damaged in transit. Damaged compressors seem to be a common problem at Amazon (read the horror stories under Makita) but this is attributable to bad compressor design, as much as rough handling during shipping. My compressors arrived by UPS, double-boxed with newspaper packing in between, yet the first compressor had a smashed pressure gauge inside. The inner box, from Senco, was not damaged in any way. So that must mean the gauge was damaged and shipped out anyway at the factory???

I have to praise Amazon Customer Service who replaced and delivered a perfect, new Senco compressor in just 72 hours--can't ask for better service than that.

5Senco PC0968  May 12, 2007 By M. Eckert "Small time contractor"
This is a great little compresseor. I have a small contracting buisness and this compressor is light enough to carry through a house. It is quiet enough not to force everyone out of a room. It also is capable enough to handle finish work through light framing that you do in remodling work.

5worth the extra money  Nov 09, 2008 By A. Baker "Nitpicker"
the Senco costs more than comparable capacity compressors but the quality of materials, workmanship, quietness, and reasonable weight (37#) made me happy to have paid the premium. I was doing a remodel job that required using a framing nailer....got 10 to 12 nails before the unit quickly and quietly recovered.

5Senco PC0968  Mar 26, 2010 By Bryan Rakestraw
After researching the "smaller" compressors, the pc0968 was a perfect match. Billing was easy, shipping was quick, and the little guy works awesome. When the box came, I thought it was a toy. All around, great little unit. Lightweight, very, very, VERY quiet, super fast to pump up and recover. Haven't tried my framer yet, but I'm sure she will do ok.

5Best bang for your buck  Jun 05, 2009 By Azor
I wanted to buy the smallest Senco compressor (1 gallon) at local lumberyard when I saw this little guy. I asked the sales person to plug it in and see how loud it was. To my surprise it was relatively quiet. Don't get me wrong, it's not silent but it purrs nicely and it is not annoying like most compressors of its size. It doesn't have that high pitch whine at all.
It recovers pretty fast in about 15-17 seconds and it gives me quite a few shots from brad nailer when I set the pressure at 80-90psi. I have not tried it with framing gun yet but it should be ok for small jobs I guess...
I highly recommend it. I paid $149+tax at local lumberyard which I think is a steal for this compressor.
