The convenience factor is a major plus. It's like having a reliable assistant for those DIY projects. Need to inflate some tires, drive in some nails, or power up pneumatic tools? This compressor has got you covered, and it's as easy as pie to use.
The lightweight design is a real back-saver. No more lugging around heavy equipment. It's like having the power you need without the extra weight. I can carry it from room to room, and it's ready to go whenever I am.
But don't be fooled by its size; this little guy is powerful. It's like the David that can take on Goliath. Whether I'm using it for airbrushing or running my nail gun, it delivers consistent and reliable performance. It's a workhorse in a compact package.
In conclusion, the Bostitch BTFP02012 6 Gallon Pancake Compressor has made small tasks around the house a breeze. It's convenient, lightweight, and packs a punch. If you're looking for a compressor that's dependable and versatile, this one is a winner. It's like having a trusty sidekick for your DIY adventures, and it's become an essential tool for me. 🛠️💨🏡
I would recommend to anyone.
Bought it to use in my garage for small projects. Mostly only use a brad nailer and a small air spray gun.
Painting with this is definitely only suggested on small projects. Being such a small tank, it burns through the air quickly and needs to refill often. Not really a problem per-se, but can get annoying on larger projects.
- Fills quickly.
- Retains PSI well over multiple days.
- Noise is acceptable. It's an air compressor, it's not going to be quiet. I've seen some people complaining about the noise level.
- has two ports so two people can use at same time. Very nice if using for something like a nail gun. Two people can be putting in trim at the same time.
Overall great product for the price. My brother in law has the same one and has had it for years. No complaints from him either.
I made do without for quite a while but a kitchen remodel changed all that. I didn't want to spend a bunch (the remodel was doing just fine in that area). I took a chance on the Bostitch and am pretty pleased.
The compressor is surprisingly light (my Dewalt was a beast and unwieldy), so easy to take wherever you are working. It's not excessively loud, but it's a compressor so yes, you know it's running and it might seem loud to some.
It builds up to pressure quickly and holds like a rock when idle. I was using a brad nailer at 80 lbs. and it cycled a bit, but not too bad. I moved on to the drywall texture sprayer. Running at 30 lbs the compressor cycled regularly as I was spraying continuously for 15 minutes or so. Aside from the cycling, it never dropped pressure and performed quite well.
A minor nit is the pressure regulator, but honestly most compressors you have to fiddle with a bit to dial in the pressure you want. However, this one is a little jumpy and you have to play with it to get it right.
Bottom line is this a great choice for a portable compressor. More capable than one just for airing up tires but not something you can use to paint your car.
I use the compressor frequently, to supply air sprayers for stain or paint for projects, occassionally with a brad/finish nailer, but most freqently to fill vehicle tires; as the wife and I commute a lot, I do oil changes every few weeks with tire pressure checked and filled. This machine has had zero issues with any tasks I've thrown at it, and I've now had it for almost 2 years with regular useage, not a single failure.
The only other minor complaint beyond the noise is it can "dance" a little if placed on certain smooth floors or inclines, but I'd imagine many pancakes could do the same. But I've done no maintenance and regular usage and it's never failed me, if it breaks I'd gladly purchase again.
