I did tons of comparison shopping before buying this compressor and nothing else came close to the performance it offered. I really wanted a quiet compressor because my old porter cable pancake compressor would leave your ears ringing after it ran every 5 minutes. This compressor is very quiet, you can... review »

Relatively Quiet but Quality is Lacking

I purchased this compressor a little over a year ago for some light automotive work in my personal garage. The compressor is quiet and feels solid. Moving the unit around is a snap due to the wonderful design and air filled wheels. Overall, this is a good compressor, but two things should be noted.... review »

Quiet

I owned an oil free compressor for two years prior to buying this compressor. Nobody tells you how loud the oil free compressors are. When the motor turns on you want to walk out of the garage to escape the noise. This compressor is very quiet. You can carry on a conversation while it is running. It recovers fast and will run any tool the average "do it your selfer" cares to run. The tank is large enough to run high volume tools, yet small enough to move around easily. I replaced the tank drain valve with a t-handle valve which is much easier to open and close compared to the round one that comes... review »

Had this compressor for 4 years. Wow the price has really gone up on this unit. Super quiet. Unit is made by Devibliss; know for quality air compressor. Nothing comes close for price, power, and quietness.

I have been watching this product and its reviews for almost a year. I choose it because of size and the fact it is oil lubricated. I took it home unpacked it, put the wheels on and plugged it in. It got up to pressure rapidly and stopped of 155psi. It has held at 150psi for four days now. Not one leak or malfunction of any kind. I'm very pleased with this purchase. Bought it on sale and with the Tool Club discount it was a few cents under $400.

Great compressor for the home

JAN

Got this compressor about 1 month ago and have used it extensively on the weekends. The thing to understand is this is not a huge compressor and will not run a DA or impact non stop for any amount of time, what it does do is provides sufficient volume and pressure for most do it yourself task around the house with power to spare. The compact size has allowed me to tuck it under the stairs leading into the house completely out of the way. Pros: Easy to assemble Quiet - can't hear it in the house Keeps up with my pace of work with any air tool Cons:- all very minor, hardly worth mentioning Regulator... review »

I 've been a rough carpenter for over 20 years and this is the best compressor i've ever owned. I've had a few trucks and trailers broken into and had 2 of them stolen but went right back to sears to get a new one. I run a 7 man crew with framing nailers and staple guns and it keeps up fine. I've gone through about 8 compressors over the years and this is the one iI would keep buying

Product is great works real well for almost any use I have put to it. Great for a small garage and one air tool at a time. Pumps up real fast and keeps up and is very quiet in comparison to non-oiled models. Great Buy!!

Good compressor, but pressure doesn't stay at 150

I bought this compressor around Christmas 2007. This model (919.195411) had the old specs (2HP running, 8.6 CFM @ 40 psi and 6.8 CFM @ 90 psi) printed on the tank and on the belt guard. As stated in the manual, this one was shipped with no oil in the pump, so I had to buy a 16 fl. oz. bottle to fill the pump prior to the break-in procedure. It took a few minutes to slowly add the entire 16 fl. oz. in the crankcase. After the 20-minute break-in, the motor stopped at cut-out pressure of 150 psi. I noticed the pressure dropped very quickly to 135 psi in 30-40 seconds, slowly bled down to 130 psi in... review »

Fair at best......

I have had this compressor for over a year and I have not had any major trouble with it. I bought the oil that was not included and followed the break-in exactly as the owner's manual said. I think they must have lied about the cfm for this model. All of the air tools I bought were rated at or below the required cfm for this compressor but it can never keep up. It was only used for light duty projects. It is a fairly quite machine but not when it runs non-stop. It does not leak air, it just does not put out much. I would recommend a compressor with a bigger tank at least. If you want a bigger motor,... review »

Works great except when it breaks!

I've owned 3 of these compressors in 3 months. The first one worked for 1 week and then blew a head gasket and couldn't develop any pressure - retuened it to the store for credit. The 2nd one was delivered and was heavily damaged when we opened the box (fortunately the driver took it away). The third one lasted 60 days and then started leaking oil into the air tank and into the air filter - and it wouldn't run for more than 30 seconds all the while making a metal-on-metal squealing sound. It's going back to Sears this weekend. But - when it works it's great. Quiet, strong, quick to recover pressure.... review »

I should Know, I Repair them

APR

2008
I am a Sears Repair Technician with almost 40 years of experience, , and in the last 10 years, I can't remember more than one or two of these units entering our shop, (even then it was a minor thing), I have one that is over 20 years old and it is still working fine. Air leaks happen on any brand, and you just have to find them and tighten up a fitting or two. This is a great unit, it almost never breaks down, and it has the power to recover quickly. If you want a reliable air compressor, buy this one. You'll never need another one. I would recommend this unit above all competition.

I bought this compressor a coule of years ago because it was on clearance after someone else returned it, was shopping for an oilless one but I glad I found this one instead. it is way quieter than my buddies 33 gal oilless and the 2 stage compressor can actually keep up with my tools and not just run constantly, I was worried about the 25 gallon tank not being big enough but it seems to be fine, I may find another tank to plumb in line just for a bit more capacity. the only complaint I have had is that it draws alot of amps on a 120v outlet, it won't even think of starting up on anything less...

Needs better packaging, otherwise a great value

I primarily use acompressor for home improvement projects and light-duty auto repair. My son 'borrowed' my old oil-less, direct-drive 30-gal compressor. He ended up keeping it and paid me for it, so I finally went shopping for a replacement. I researched all the under $400 units sold through home improvement stores, Sears, and online stores -- but I did not look at units sold through tool suppliers to professionals. Because of the unbearable noise from the last compressor, I definitely wanted to switch to a belt-driven unit and I purchased this Sears model. The unit is not packaged very well and... review »

First time regulator is stuck, returned to Sears. Second time, assembled compressor at Sears Merchandise Pickup parking lot. Regulator OK. Felt someone watchime me. Turned around to see Sears employee observing my assembly. This time belt making loud sound. Noticed motor mount is not parallel/skewed to pump. Pressure relief tube leaking air and oil. Returned to Sears. Third time, assembled again at parking lot to make sure everything looks ok. Motor mount looks ok but still making fan belt sound similar to noise you hear from cars with squeaking fan belts. Pressure relief tube still leaking air.... review »
