DON'T BUY QUINCY

I bought a quincy QT5 because it was made in the USA. I bought it for my hobby shop at home and work maybe 1 day a week on average in my shop. I thought that buying this USA built compressor would last me the rest of my life. Boy was I wrong lasted 2 and a half years before the rods started knocking. Called quincy and of course their first response was to try and fault me. Now I have the pump off trying to find parts and can't. Steer clear of these boat anchors.

Quality performer

From the time the compressor cycles on until the 80 gallon tank is once again fully charged, about one minute passes; at this rate it is going to take quite some time before replacing the break-in oil at the 100 hour mark. The compressor runs at a fairly low RPM and is thus moderately quiet and does not have that annoying sound most cheap compressors produce; in fact, it's kind of a nice rumble. Vibration is minimal, really minimal. Compressors of this type are not rated for a 100% duty cycle i.e. they are not designed to run continuously with no cycling on & off; however, we used it stripping paint at 150 psi for the better part of a day with a large external fan aiding the cooling and only tripped the motor reset once but it did have a few times to catch up while we moved ladders. This is a workhorse of a compressor. Because it is very heavy I mounted it on an industrial equipment dolly which allows for somewhat mobile use around the shop; as mobile as 700 pounds can be. The scfm rating is very high for a 5hp compressor; I don't think there are too many 5hp compressors that can match or exceed it. Champion compressors are another quality American line but I prefer the heavy build quality of the Quincy line of compressors. BTW, Quincy builds another 5hp compressor that is rated at 200psi continuous duty and 500psi intermittent duty but it is very costly and grossly overkill for most commercial/light industrial applications. Mine came with a single belt although the pulleys have another v-groove for twin belt drive from the HD Baldor motor. The compressor was manufactured in Quincy Illinois and has a 50,000 hour service life according to the manual. I installed resettable and non-resettable hour meters to insure maintenance intervals are met but at 58 years of age I'll probably never see the day it finally wears out. I purchased this product before I began buying tools and equipment through Amazon and had to pay an additional amount to have it moved from the store to my shop; therefore, I wouldn't hesitate to order it online and have motor freight deliver it. No set up is required other than hooking up the power cord; it even comes with break-in oil. Remember, buy quality and cry once; you'll get over the price soon enough and be better off for it.

Quality is as high as I expected.

It is big. The 80 gal tank is quite a bit bigger diameter than the 60. Quality is as high as I expected. I got this as a surprise gift from my wife. She didn't know it shipped from Northern Tool without lift gate service via ABF Freight. I have a 2000lb pallet stacker that worked great for unloading from the truck and moving around the garage. The ABF driver was very helpful with positioning the truck and wrestling the compressor on its pallet to the rear edge of the truck. I had to look online about the best way to get the compressor off the shipping pallet by myself. I found a note about lifting below the horizontal channel the motor and pump are mounted to and it works great for lifting and positioning for anchor bolt mounting. Baldor motor is a standard Baldor stock item so I expect this will be the last compressor I buy for a home shop even if it ever needs parts or service.
