Summary: Awesome portable (albeit bulky) compressor
Comment: This is an awesome compressor. I had a MAC700 which was 'liberated' from my garage recently. I had a minor issue with it (the pressure switch started leaking) which Makita fixed with a little bit of wrangling (after a failed warranty repair because they didn't bother to replace the bad part, I wrote a letter alerting Makita of my dissatisfaction and requesting a replacement part, which they fulfilled). I really enjoyed that compressor. It was very quiet (compared to the alternatives) and functioned well. It was excellent for inflating tires and balls, running small air tools, and [very] small "blowing" needs. Unfortunately it had a little bit of trouble keeping up with my air impact wrench (IR2131) when removing lug nuts. I have a 60 gallon IR compressor for my large needs, but I -really- didn't like waiting 5 minutes for it to charge up just to take a couple of wheels off my car, so I decided to replace my missing MAC700 with a MAC2400 because of its slightly larger capacity.
I'm one of the lucky ones who received my MAC2400 from Amazon in pristine condition, which made me very happy. The MAC2400 seems a bit noisier than the MAC700, but basically the same. I think the people who think these are noisy haven't heard the alternatives! I chose not to go with the larger Makita (MAC5700?) because reports were that the wheels are -very- flimsy and the whole unit is quite a bit heavier for not much gain in performance. If I had to lug the MAC2400 around every day, I'd probably go back to a MAC700, but the 2400 is a great addition to my garage, and can be taken inside the house or in the car if need be. I've also seen several people mount these on two-wheelers, an idea which intrigues me. But, I'll probably just let it sit happily in my garage and 'spin up' in about minute when I need a small amount of air quickly.

Summary: Pleased with purchase
Comment: I received the purchase via UPS without any damage. After reviewing the product reviews, prior to my purchase, I was concerned about the shipping. The compressor works well and is very quiet. The only issue I have is the weight, 77 pounds makes it difficult to carry. I knew this prior to my purchase so I will live with it.

Summary: good product
Comment: After a few days of using this with a framing nailer, I am pleased with the performance. The low amp draw and quiet operation are the features that set it apart from similar units. It is heavy (as described), but strapping it to an innexpensive dolly helps to keep it portable.

Summary: Rock solid
Comment: After ordering this compressor the wait was killing me, after it arrived I ran down to my local home center and bought a hose, I imediately plug it in and started shooting nails, this thing is everything the reviews spoke of, quiet,solid, and nice to look at, for just a do it yourselfer IM sure this machine is overkill but I will have it forever and the Amazon price with free shipping you would be out of your damn mind not to buy this one, it's the top of the line.............

Summary: Quiet?????
Comment: Those that wrote on this website that this compressor was quiet must be really good sales people. We bought it for that reason because this had to be installed indoors inside a lab. It had a lower pitch than the pancake compressor we had initially installed this made it more tolerable, but was just as loud, 80db is not quiet.
So the reviewer that said this was quiet and it just hums and was easy to talk over and able to listen to a radio never had it indoors or is a sales person trying to make an extra buck. The compressor itself is good and does what it was supposed to do. We did follow the directions, and did the no load break in as per the operations manual. BUT QUIET NO WAY!!!!
