Craftsman 12 volt Air Compressor/Inflator,... Comparison

Super Handy...

OCT

2008

Has worked flawlessly for almost 2 years. Bought 2 more as presents; will buy another for my other car. A valve adapter that needs to be applied carefully may be the cause of other users' complaints regarding pump/motor failure: attach it incorrectly and air won't reach the tire; only the hose inflates.... read full review »

Do Not buy this

I got this air compressor as a Christmas gift from a member of my family in 2007 It was a product I really looked forward to where as I would not have to plug it in when using. As it turns out, this is absolutely the worse Craftsman product that I have EVER used. I have used it twice and charged it up... read full review »

It is all about maintaining it's battery

MAR

2009

I use it maintain pressure in my garden-tracker tires. This is my 3rd model. Am very happy with the job it does and it's ease of use and portability. Hubby told me to let the battery run-down or it would lose it's ability to get a full-charge. Then I read the responses here and the booklet! Well open my eyes! Do Not let the battery run all the way down! This little baby is still happily humming-up my tractor tires! Love-it!

No replacement parts!

NOV

2007

Like others, The impeller broke on my unit. It has only seen very light duty household use - adding air to car tires, lawn tractor tires, and blowing up a kiddie pool once or twice. The inside of the unit has many metal shavings, indicating a design flaw. Save your money and use a hand pump, or invest in a quality repairable unit.

If You Have Tires, You Should Have This

The Craftsman 12 volt Air Compressor/Inflator, Rechargeable/Cordless, is a must have if you own anything with tires. This unit is light weight, portable, and powerful. This inflator can be run off of a rechargeable battery, household electrical socket, or a vehicle power outlet (12V). It quiet for an aircompressor/inflator. It does not jump all around all over the floor when in use. The nice features include storage for your hose, which is a great length at two feet, storage for the two power supplies, and storage three nozzle adapters which is included with the unit. Another nice feature...

5 stars

NOV

2008

I HAD THIS UNIT FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS AND IT WAS A FANTASTIC PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. I KEPT IT IN MY CAR AND ONLY HAD TO RE-CHARGE IT A FEW TIMES PER YEAR. MY UNIT JUST CRAPPED OUT AFTER SO MANY YEARS AND I AM DELIGHTED TO SEE THAT I CAN STILL PURCHASE THE SAME MACHINE.

I have no idea what I did with the charger but so far that hasn't been a problem. I've used this about 10 times (twice from complete flat tires) over the past several months AFTER losing the charger. Before that, I kept it in the car during the last winter and the previous summer (as well as this one). The battery low indicator is on now but it's still going. I have a slow leak which I've been topping off. Gotta get that fixed. Now to find that charger... I gave it four stars instead of 5 because it's kind of slow, it's pretty loud (although I guess most compressors are loud), and the attachment... read full review »

Craftsman?

MAY

2009

Craftsmen need tools to work when they are supposed to. Craftsmen take things apart when they don't to see why. Compressor worked OK until valve in compressor head fell apart and siezed unit. Took apart to fix but it turns out there are no replacement parts available so you throw out a $50 "emergency" tool for lack of a 10 cent replacement part. Won't be replacing with another Craftsman unit.

Craftsman 12V Air Compressor/Inflator,Rechargeabl

OCT

2008

Bought this item a few months ago for the purpose of inflating automobile tires, basketballs and bicycle tires. We have used it and love it!! It is people friendly which means it is very easy to use. It is quiet, mobile and gets the job done. I would recommend it to anyone who is tired of paying for air and getting frustrated in the process. The item I am referring to is product number 02875116000.

No replacement parts available

JUL

2007

I've owned one of these units for more years than I can remember. I loved this unit. Compact, easily transportable. All the accessories fit neatly in the compartment on the bottom (if you wind that power cord just right). No need to plug it in unless you need to recharge it (although as some reviewers noted, not being able to run the unit off house power when the battery dies is a bit of a bother, but not a deal killer for me). It has been a real trooper and one of my favorite tools... until the hose broke. I looked to see if I could disconnect the hose myself, but found the unit pretty well sealed,... read full review »

Not Reliable

NOV

2007

I am very disappointed in this product. I have been using craftsman tools all my life, but this product is not up to Sears level of quality. I was given this air compressor as a gift and have only used it twice. The second time I used it, the compressor locked up and blew the fuse. When I opened the unit I fount that the reed valve in the head of the compressor had fallen off and was preventing the piston from traveling the full length of stroke. The reed valve was not secured properly to the compressor head. This is a very shoddily built device. I would not be as dissatisfied it parts for this... read full review »

Poor Representation for Craftsman Products

OCT

2007

I got this air compressor as a Christmas gift from a member of my family in 2006. It was a product I really looked forward to so that I could get away from the hand pump. As it turns out, this is absolutely the worse Craftsman product that I have EVER used. It has been used sparingly, approximately 6 times total. The unit has completely quit pumping air. I have never been as disatisfied with any product, other that a problematic Cadillac, than I have with this unit. I have had to revert to the hand pump until I get a real replacement. It won't be another of these though.

Lasted many years

JUL

2008

I purchased this compressor back in 1995 as an emergency pump for my camper. I've used it countless times for tires and sports equipment and it will retain a charge well into the next season. The one negative comment I have is it's speed...takes a while to pump up a tire if it has gone completely flat. the older it has become the slower it has become. I am here looking to replace it. Not bad for 13+ years of use.

AUG

I recently received this unit as a gift and have not really put it through its paces yet. However, it is noisy in compressor mode but I plan on using it only to keep car tires inflated as optimum measure for fuel economy and tire safety. I have searched for years (off and on) for a reasonably priced domestic compressor that would operate from house or auto voltage with the flip of a switch all to no avail. My father-in law had one of that type back in the early 1970s. If Sears had one available, I would probably buy it with no qualms because I've had generally good luck with Sears/Craftsman products.... read full review »
