Amazon.com Review
Power up pneumatic nailers, impact wrenches, ratchets and more with this beefy air compressor from Bostitch. Light enough for easy transport to any spot on the jobsite, this 6-gallon pancake compressor features oil-free operation for next to nil maintenance. A high-flow regulator lets this compressor power either three finish nailers at the same time, or a single roofing or framing nailer for smooth nailing performance. The compressor also powers single sealant dispensers, blow guns, paint sprayers, sandblasters, air brushes, and grease guns. The unit delivers 3.4 cfm at 40 psi and 2.7 cfm at 90 psi. A powerful efficient induction motor features manual-reset overload protection and draws only 10 amps for positive start-ups and long life. The purchase includes a coupler for quick and easy hose hookups. A rugged roll cage ensures jobsite protection. And, a compact design lets you store this compressor just about anywhere. --Brian D. Olson

5 out of 5 stars Great air compressor   June 4, 2010
Michael J. Torrance (Boston)
I use this compressor for site work. It is too small to be run in a shop but at a work site it's great. It can keep up with 2 or 3 guns no problem, and handles an air chuck just fine. The compressor is quite which is rare in an oil less pump design. I like that it has a ball valve on the bottom to drain the water and it is very easy to carry around. It is defiantly the best compressor for the price range.


1 out of 5 stars motor not strong enough   May 14, 2010

I've had this compressor for a couple of years. I framed and finished a basement with it when I bought it, and then it sat for a year or so, and now I'm trying to use it to fix some fencing.

When I first bought it I noticed that if it was cold and there was any pressure in the tank (10 psi or more) the motor was not strong enough to run and build pressure. It would turn a couple of times and then stall and you could hear it drawing current and not getting anywhere. I would have to turn it off, empty the tank, and then start the compressor again. Once I did that the motor would get running and it could build up to 100 psi no problem.


Recently it started doing this every time - meaning I would shoot 5 nails and the compressor would kick on but the motor would stall. I would need to shut it off, empty the tank, and then turn it on. It takes a few minutes, but it builds up a full 100 psi again...

Maybe there is something wrong that needs repair, but I can't find anything on the web about what might need to be fixed. I think the motor is just too weak on this compressor...




1 out of 5 stars Poor Packaging   April 30, 2010

Got my Bostitch CAP2060P delivered by FedEX and opened to find that the top was crushed as if someone had turned it upside down.Called Amazon and they sent a replacement the next day by UPS.I opened it to find that it was nowhere near as broke as the first,but still the handle was broke.Called them back and now it looks like all I'll get is a refund and experience opening the boxes these come in.I am really upset over this and am now scared to order anything of this nature from Amazon.


1 out of 5 stars smells like burning   January 28, 2010
Ghost of Jomo (carrboro, nc)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I bought this compressor with the trim gun set for a good price at Home Depot. It always smelled kind of funny when it ran but since it was brand new I assumed that's just the way it was. I had it two years with very intermittent use and one day it started to smell worse and worse and start to smoke. Now it won't even cut on. The warranty is up so even though the compressor is basically brand new and broken, I'm out of luck so far.

From other reviews I've found online it sounds like this model compressor is a complete dud.



4 out of 5 stars A pretty nice little air compressor for the homeowner!   January 21, 2010
skietz (Indiana)
I have owned this air compressor for about a year and a half. We built our own home, and I used it quite a bit. If you were going to be using a compressor all the time, you may want one with a little more air capacity so the compressor does not kick on all the time. But for me, this works just fine. And a great price on Amazon to go with it!
