found in T-2820ST's description: From the Manufacturer
At (74-decibels) the Thomas T-2820ST is the quietest 2 HP contractor grade compressor on the market. Delivering 5 cfm at 100 psi it is also the highest output 2 HP compressor available. A solid state start switch and 5-Year Electrical Warranty are also Thomas exclusives and not offered anywhere else. Like all Thomas machines it is rated for continuous use. Often called "The Cadillac of Portables" it sets the standard on what 2 HP compressors should be.

The Cadillac of portable air compressors - My new Thomas compressor, T-2820ST, is quiet enough to run in the house and is so well balanced that it is not too heavy to move around. extension cords can be used); this is the Cadillac of portable compressors. The paint job on the tanks could be better and air fittings could be included, but those are minor issues.

found in T-635HD's reviews:
kinda load - Thomas has good tech support - Received as expected, actually a day early thanks Amazon, the compressor is very well packed for shipping.5 hours, it will not hold air.
I'm now trying to get a reply from Thomas on where to take it or send it back for repair,I would like to resolve this as the compresser is a great size for one gun use.
Thomas Tech did return my call - worked with me on phone to try & fix problem, he overnighted the replacement part and upon installation everything is up & running - good tec support, this has caused it to quiet a little.

Compressors/Thomas T-635HD - Light weight, dependable; and quiet! This is what I was looking for in a compressor.and this is why I specifically went looking for Thomas Compressors.

I worked on a top notch remodeling company restoring historical houses, and a carpenter used one on everything from framing, to trim work, rain or shine Thomas kept up.Since then I have been waiting for my Emglo to get retired so I too can be a proud owner of a Thomas T-635HD

One thing that I did not like when my Thomas T-635HD arrived was a real lack of directions to assemble the few parts that did need to be put on before operation, but anyone with common knowlege of compressors will figure it out.

This compressor is not intended for HIGH-PRODUCTION ie. if you are in the market for a compressor that is small,light;and dependabley quiet. Your search has ended here !

Don't get fooled by tool packs that come with nail gun, air-hose and compressor in one deal you will be looking for a new compressor soon.

Reliable - From what I'm told, it's hard to wear these out, and if you do, Thomas has the parts to do an easy rebuild.
Light weight professional grade compressor for small jobs - I was looking for a portable and not overly loud air compressor, for my low air-volume tools. I had a 4-gallon pancake compressor for several years, but at 70 lbs. The Thomas 3/4 HP model, at 26 pounds, is so lightweight that I can comfortably pick it up with TWO fingers. Although it hardly qualifies as "quiet", it isn't nearly as noisy as other compressors I've heard. I installed a 16" stainless steel braided faucet plumbing hose on the compressor's air-outlet port; routed the hose out the back under the motor support, and screwed on a quick disconnect coupling. Because the tank is only 2 gallons (to keep weight/bulk down), the pump comes on more often than on larger units, but when it does, it's only on for about 12 seconds (if you're not using air).

Thomas's Perma-Lube pump design results in a 100% duty cycle. Translation: the compressor can be used continuously, without letup. Some compressors have only a 50% duty cycle, which means you shouldn't run it more than 30 minutes for every hour used, as that could cause excessive wear on the pump and/or motor.

You'd want a bigger unit if you had two roofing or stud-nailers going, but for low-air-volume requirements such as trim work, this little Thomas unit is just about perfect.

September 2006 update:

While working on a home renovation project, the compressor's low air pressure switch clicked, but the motor didn't start. By the time I got to the compressor, the motor was smoking, literally. In any case, the little Thomas had sat there for a few minutes just humming; and overheated.

    thomas brand - I own the twin tank 4 gallon renegade model compressor(replacing much loved rolair compressor). Anyone considering this compressor should not hesitate if specs match needs. I think that the 15 pounds or so lighter the T-100SP is than mine would make for a pretty desirable compressor.

The quietest finish/trim compressor on the market

found in T-617HDN's description: From the Manufacturer
The super quiet (60 decibel) T-617HDN is the hands down favorite for those that want a quiet running, long life compressor capable of handling any (1) finish gun or brad nailer. Additional uses include, airbrushing, inflating tires, air mattresses, sports equipment, and winterizing RV's and motor homes.
found in T-617HDN's reviews:
When Quality & Quiet Matter More Than Price & Power - I researched compressors carefully around town and on the Web. Compressors available at the Borg and various local tool shops are gawdawful loud, heavy, and look to be made of cheap plastic and pot metal. The compressor will be carried around and used indoors.

The 1/2 HP Thomas seems to be right for me. The unit is light enough to carry around easily, and its shape rides comfortably beside your walking legs (unlike pancake compressors).

The compressor only puts out about 1 CFM and has a 2 gallon tank.

You will not be happy with this compressor unless your needs and preferences are similar to mine. It really doesn't put out or hold much air. No durability experience since I haven't had the compressor for long.
