“2 gallon compressor”

It does everything I wanted (& surprisingly really fast building pressure). The only reason I didn't give it top rating was (add $5 to the cost & toss some extras in) another air hose (being it has TWO outlets) and fittings would've been nice. A trip to a hardware store and I now have an air nozzle for... read full review »

“Disappointed”

Bought it on Saturday, returned it on Sunday. After filling the motor with oil, attaching the air filter, plugging it in and letting it build up pressure, it became immediately apparent there was a leak. At least one fitting was so loose that the motor would cycle on about every minute to keep the pressure... read full review »

“GREAT BUY, FOR A GREAT PRICE!”

This is a good compressor for having around the home. Works great for small projects. I searched high and low for a machine that was not to expensive with quality. Found it at Sears!

“4 stars”

Purchased this for $105 and it was money well spent. Did an excellent job of blowing out cob webs and spider webs from my gas log set prior to lighting for the first time this year. Service man normally charges me $50 for a house call to perform this maintenance every year, so I got half of my purchase price back right away. The only complaint, is the accessory kit that comes with it. The air hose would serve me better if it was 50 Ft. instead of 25 ft. Also, I could not get any air in my auto tires using the enclosed air chuck. I will invest in a longer air hose and a better air chuck and this... read full review »

“Craftsman 2Gal Compressor”

I picked up my compressor on Sun and put it together today. I read through the instructions and followed them closely, using the thread sealing tape (supplied) and snugging up the connections with a wrench. Then I turned it on. It came on as expected, worked perfectly and shut off at the selected pressure. The pressure held. No leaks found. This is an excellent machine for the money when used for filling tires and using the blowgun to clean off a surface, or other similar jobs. Recommended for any homeowner without a nearby source for compressed air.

“A Fantastic Compressor”

I had priced and reviewed several compressors and settled on this one, and I'm glad I did. The Sears/Craftsman name is a tough one to beat, especially on value and quality. The compressor sets up and stores easily. The accessory package might leave a little to be desired on quality, but for what I will be using the compressor for (cleaning, inflation), it is more than adequate.

“Portable Air Compressor”

I own a 60 gallon compress but was tired of having to fill an air tank or run 100+ feet of hose if I needed to do something away from my shop. This portable compressor fits the bill. I recently installed molding in my kitchen and den. During this project, I used BOTH a finish nailer and crown stapler . The compressor operated both with no problem. I was also impressed with the recovery time once it kicked on. Overall, I am very pleased with this product.

“Good compressor, Good price.”

This is a great compressor for around $100. I bought it instead of buying a large tank model because I wanted the ability to take it around to projects easily. I like it because it is oil lube. I had a pancake compressor a few years ago and it died after a year's worth of use. It takes very little to get it going out of the boxbasically put oil in it and away you go. It is light weight, but has good feet on it so it doesn't walk around the floor from vibration. It is quieter than my old compressor and it builds up to pressure fast. I use it for everything from bike tires to a large stud nailer.... read full review »

“Inflation excellence”

This is a well build machine with excellent guaging and controls; I use it primarily for tire inflation, but it is capable of supplying adequate air compression for air power tools. I haven't had it very long, but my experience with prior compressors tells me that it will serve my needs for many years to come. The only reason I do not award it a five star rating is because there is not a convenient on-off electrical power switch to switch the electric power on and off when not in use.

“Just what I needed!”

As a ceramic artist I needed a compressor for both glazing of larger pieces and airbrush detail work. This compressor is easy, compact, has a great auto shut-off once pressure is achieved and is not nearly as noisy as others I've seen. Plus= Sears got it to me right away. I am happy, yes I am.

“Great Compact Small Compressor”

If you want a compact compressor for tires, balls, and blowing off things that you can easily carry around, this compressor will serve you well. I park my lawn tractor in a shed that doesn't have electricity yet. If I need to put air in the tractor tires, I can fill the tank in the garage and carry it out to the tractor. It takes little space in my garage and IF wanted that floor space, at 26 lbs, I could hang it from a hook. I bought it during an online sale in July of 2008 for $99. Two weeks after I got it, during normal use, the plastic hose developed a leak. I took the accessory kit to the... read full review »

“2-gallon air compressor”

Excellent product. Solid, well made and easy to use. Delivery was prompt.

“Great Compressor!!!!!!!”

I have used this compressor for six months three days a week in a commercial application. I install doors and windows part time. I followed the breakin instructions and had no problems with it. I like the two quick connects, for I use two nail guns at the same time one is 15gauge and the other 18gauge. Recently I used it with outside temperatures around 5 below zero not a problem at all, however I did have to use ethylene glycol in my nail guns instead of oil. I like the cast iron cylinder head and the fact it is oil lubricated. Great job Sears. I highly recommend this compressor for all nail... read full review »
