Craftsman 4 Gallon Portable Twin Tank Side Stack Compressor with Hose and 9PC Accessory Kit — 

Folks, the customer service I received was great! I was too early for the, "Friends & Family" automatic 10% off. The Sears rep told me to not buy this Open box item and to come back at 6:00 pm to save 10%. Ok I said. Went back and brought the unit home. Tightened down all the screws to make sure they were snug. Filled with oil, air filter installed, fired up and went to pressure cut-off. Not too loud. UPS is picking up my Allpower APC 4028 return sometime in the morning. Fired it up and it could not hold air. All Power manufacturer sent me a new safety air release...I installed it to only find 2 more smaller leaks elsewhere. So it is going back. Back to this unit. So far after 3 hours it is holding the pressure and a quick soap check at the fittings indicates no leaks. I am happy. I plan to use this item moderately. More than the casual user though since I will be installing 3 bedrooms and a Living room/hall sub floor with it soon. Also, paneling and other misc. work.  I am optimistic it will hold up. All the air lines are metal...my other unit, being returned tomorrow, had plastic lines. While the boxes from both indicate, "Made in China. I am convinced that the material quality is at least a notch higher on the Craftsman compressor. Maybe even more...time will tell.

 

Good Luck and Happy early Holidays!
