Seems to keep up with orbital sander needs but I would say borderline. Great if you need compressor for some DIY and not heavy duty work. Manual is in Spanish and only thing to do is to fill oil to red in motor case circular window.... rest is just wheel assembly and typical maintenance.

When I started looking for a compressor, I did a search for 'silent compressor' and this appeared in the listings, so I checked it out. I read the previous review about the manual being in Spanish, so figured I'd be okay - google translate and having had a compressor beforehand, I knew what to expect, as this was supposed to be an upgrade from a compressor which runs at 95dB. If there was mention of the noise level in the listing, I must have missed it, so I was unpleasantly surprised to see a 97dB warning on the box when it turned up, and a sticker advising the use of ear protectors. NOT impressed, but I figured I would see what it was like anyway - shifting that volume of air would mitigate the noise level to an extent.So I opened the box. The first thing that hit me was the smell of oil. The unit comes supplied with a bottle of oil for the motor, which is a good thing. What wasn't so good was that the bottle had leaked, so was only 2/3rds full. The rest of the oil was all over the motor, the tank, the handles... everywhere. It wouldn't be that big a deal, but I bought the compressor to shoot lacquer, so the first thing that crossed my mind was potential contamination. Then, when I moved the tank, there was something rattling around inside it. Probably bits of weld or something, but that didn't help. Neither did the fact that the condensation drain plug isn't right at the bottom of the tank - it's a few cms up the side. So there's the possibility of water contamination as well. Okay, you can get water filters, and should use them, but even so...The mains plug itself is a European one, so you need to get an earthed EU/UK adaptor. So all-in-all, I just couldn't risk using this compressor. It does put air out, it cuts out when it reaches pressure, and switches back on automatically, but that's what it's designed to do. The rest of my experience was not exactly positive, so I've arranged to send it back, unfortunately...
