Review Posted 03/16/2025
Family pitched in together to get this compressor for me. Very quiet, doesn’t startle me when it comes on and I’m next to it, maybe my favorite part :)
All around very happy with it and the push to connect fitting are appreciated.

Received my machine well packed and in perfect condition. Read the instructions and then fired it up and wow. The unit is quiet, well built and layout is great. After running pancake machines for years what a difference. Now only time will tell if the price and quality payoff.

Review Posted 10/09/2024
Purchased this unit a couple of months ago for doing some indoor carpentry work. I wanted a compressor that does not wake up the neighbors when it turns on. The price point is on the higher end of compressors by size of performance but I did my research and invested on this one. It’s well made, the motor was quite as advertised. So far everything checked out.

CAT-4610AC- Awesome!
By Randy S

Review Posted 06/23/2023
The California Air Tools CAT-4610AC is exactly what I was looking for. It is very high quality and the aluminum tanks make it much lighter than other compressors I have owned. The best feature is the super quiet operation which makes my time in the shop much more enjoyable!

Great Product

Review Posted 11/22/2021
Quiet, professional, is reasonably priced and just what I expected. This would be my third air compressor and it is by far the best one I’ve ever purchased. Second day I had this air compressor I blew out my underground sprinkler system for the winter. It is a great product. It is so quiet I had to go standby the compressor to see if it was running.

I bought one seven years ago and I love how quiet it runs and how light it is so I bought a second one and made my old one my backup! I highly recommend this compressor especially if you want to keep the noise down.

Have only had this for a short while, but it seems to work well, and it's delightfully quiet. The difference in volume between the pancake we were using and this is amazing.
