This is a very good honest video story, about the relationship between men and his air compressor. Thanks, men. I have the same one.

This is a GREAT video! The YEARS in use is what prospective buyers want to know most.

Just bought this for the old man for his birthday he loves it this unit works like a dream. Thanx for the review budz 🤘🤘

Bought a MAC2400 about 8 years ago. The tank started leaking today. Not too bad considering I only drained it 2 times the whole time I owned it and it sits in a trailer through Minnesota winters. Probably could fix the leak but the regulator has been leaking lately, the drain valve is broke and could use a new filter. I feel I got my money worth. It can do a framing gun full time and I'm able to do ceiling texture with it but have to give it a break here and there which is ok because I need to refill the hopper.

i have had mine for 5 yrs now, i love it as much as you do...

I can look it up, but would've appreciated it if you had shared with us the PSI, CFM, Gal. and where it's made.

the Metabo pancake is a good compressor (what I have now , it is the BEST pancake in my opinion) , BUT , it would not be as quiet .... lightweight , tons of air ..... I used to be an Emglo man , but they just got too heavy in my old age , now I have the Metabo , but if I buy another compressor I will check out the Makita ... Going to be hard to beat the Metabo , but we'll see ... thank you for the review

3:48 to 3:57 porter cable compressor

I'm looking at the Mac5200 3-HP motor, this air compressor has a capacity of 5.2 gallons, to use with my stucco sprayer and framing nailer. Do you feel this is a good choice for these uses?

I loved mine only probkem is weight and it tips over easy.

It's a good compressor but for outside work it's better to use an oiless in Canada because of the cold start

Great video. I love makita air compressors

That MAC700 is portable? It’s heavy! I have one. LOL. the new oil less are pretty quiet and light. Thinking about trying one.

Could you use this for a drywall texture hopper for when you are repairing drywall, say nothing bigger than a 3 foot patch? I need something for handyman jobs. The hopper says it needs at least a 2.4 CFM at 90psi. Thank you.

Could you run two cleat nailers for engendered hardwood with getting ahead of it?

You think you I can use this Makita for spray paint?

Thanks for the great review. I am just about ready to pull the trigger on this one. I will be keeping it in my garage and mostly using it for car tires and lawn tractor tires. Is the tank size sufficient to fill 4 tires? What kind of oil would you suggest since the garage can get extremely hot in summer and bitterly cold in winter? (I live in IL)

Nice review

Love my porter..4 years trouble free

Hi David, Did you ever do the video on the air fittings? I just picked up a one day used MAC 700. It seems much quieter that in your video. Maybe its the microphone? Roofer I bought it from said it could not keep up to 2 roofing guns. His Bostitch died, and this is all he could find that day locally. He uses the Bostitch 6 gallon pancake compressor. The specs claim it to be quieter then the MAC 700. I doubt that. I also have a Hitachi EC1110 Mini Wheelbarrow 5 Gal that is quiet, but I am having a lot of condensation coming out of the air lines. Not sure why it's so bad, maybe it runs too hot? I really like the design of it, wish Makita would make a mini wheeled unit or a wheel kit for their MAC2400.

Time to fill from empty is??? Should be pretty quick compared to the red pancake.

Hey David such a great review. Very honest opinion. Will you please make a video about the best bushings that do not leak. Im in the market for an air compressor and this Makita MAC700 seems like a nice one. I want to use it for a brad nailer for furniture making and so forth. Would you recommend any other brad nailer besides the Makita AF505N Brad Nailer, 2-Inch. Mostly im building benches and furniture for home use and just getting started. Your input would be much appreciated.

great video! :D

does this have enough power to do everything? paint, tools, etc?

I need an portable/light weight compressor to test and charge a 2500 litre volume pvc pipe line with air upto the pressure of 6 kg/cm2. What compressor will you suggest?

Is there an air compressor of that size that you don’t plug in for power?

for framing ?

Questions....if someone can help. I have a small pancake compressor in gRage. It leaks air slowly... shouldn't it hold the same air for a long time.. does it have a leak? Also thought of getting a portable air tank to carry in trunk. Do these slowly lose air also.. how often do you have to give them a top off to stay full? I heard it's bad to leave air in tanks.. due to moisture.. is this true also?
