Air Compressor Review: Rhyas 50L 14CFM Compressor 3HP V Twin 240V

For the hobbyist or home DIY enthusiast, an air compressor is a useful and desireable bit of kit. But an air compressor with a decent spec for home use is expensive, right? Actually, the answer is ‘no’. Based in Leominster, UK home and garden equipment manufacturer Rhyas produces a range of cheap air compressors that represent excellent value for money without compromising on quality or performance.  Rhyas’ 50Litre 14CFM Compressor 3HP V Twin 240V is a smart and robust-looking portable air compressor, featuring large rubber wheels, a sturdy handle and stabilising feet. 

OK, so it’s nice to look at and easy to transport but what’s this air compressor like in use? As the name suggests, the specifications of this air compressor for home use are pretty special. The whopping 50 litre air receiver, combined with an impressive 3HP V twin motor, can produce 14 cubic feet per minute (CFM) of compressed air at pressures of up to 116 PSI. Despite this, the Rhyas 50L 14CFM Compressor 3HP V Twin 240V is marginally quieter in operation than some air compressors, with a loudness rating of just 97 Decibels; that’s comparable to your average lawn mower. In other words, this wallet-friendly air compressor from Rhyas is more than capable of operating a wide range of air tools and spray guns making it suitable for tackling a host of jobs around the home and garden without breaking the bank.
