  • This product is serving me well, and that is all I can expect. Inexpensive and easy to use.
Style: Air Compressor w/ Accessory Kit
Before I had purchased this compressor, I never owned one or had the need for one.. Since I'm now in a home with a 3 car garage in the back along with the 2 attached to my home.. I thought it would be a good time to purchase one for when a time it is need.. I have used it twice so far, and plan on using it again to bleed my brake system on 2 of my cars.. I was impressed with the condition it came in, as I have read a lot of negative reviews. Plus it was very simple to set up and use.. It is a little noisy, but what compressor is not. The price with all the extras was not bad at all, and does not take up any room in my garage.. if you want a inexpensive one to use in your home, and it will not break the bank, then I highly recommend this. ... show more

Style: Air Compressor w/ Accessory Kit
Great value and is very easy to use. I have filled my pool floats and car tires with ease. It fills my tires with air quickly as it is powerful. I’ve had it a few years with no issues. Highly recommend!

  • A perfect 1st compressor for any need!
Style: Air Compressor w/ Accessory Kit
Seeing as I had never used an air compressor before, I was a bit apprehensive when it came time to buy my own. Fortunately Craftsman is a trusted name, and going with this little guy was the right decision: it works flawlessly for all my needs and is extremely user friendly too! Whether it's filling up tires, checking for boost leaks in my truck, or just need some concentrated air to help with cleaning, this does it all without breaking a sweat. It has two attachment ports, as well as two easy to read gauges (one for cans total pressure, one for how much you want to come through hose) with a single knob on the front that controls how much air you are using. There is a safety release pin on the side, and on the bottom there is a moisture release valve that you should open up every time you are done using compressor. Make sure you have ran it down to zero prior to doing so, otherwise you might cause your pets to flee in terror from the loud hissing noise. As far as less likeable features go, they are pretty minimal! As other people have stated, this puppy is pretty loud. Nothing that will damage your ears or anything, but if your significant other or a baby is sleeping, you might want to hold off on turning it on. The safety release valve is kind of uncomfortable to pull, it's like the rings on your key chain but with a portion of it bent outward so it's kinda jagged to handle, but again, not a big deal. I imagine this is about as user friendly as it gets, so if this is your first time buying a compressor, this is an excellent choice! As tempting as it may be to buy a used one for cheaper, that is a bad idea! These cans are only made to last for so long, so be smart and stay safe! I highly recommend the red rubber ball, and I think you'll like it too! ... show more

  • Noisy. Actually frightens you. Clangy as it completes a tank cycle. But, it works well.
Style: Air Compressor w/ Accessory Kit
When this thing comes on, it will scare the cholesterol buildup off your arteries. I have to tell myself, "It's about to happen", and it still scares me. Also, I hope the clanky metallic sound just before it shuts off is not a harbinger of things to come. Yet, the entire system works great. I get the pressures I want, very flexible and variable. No problems so far. Hose is a bit on the cheap side compared to other more professional versions, but I will let it be until it tears up and buy a heavier duty version when that day arrives. The hose accessories are great to have. My primary use is auto, bicycle, and RV tire checkups. It also works great with air mattresses and inflatable pool toys. So, nothing heavy duty here. In our high humidity environment (Florida), I have to drain the condensed moisture from the tank more frequently during summer months. But that valve works well, too. ... show more

  • Great tool to have especially when you get a flat tire
Style: Air Compressor w/ Accessory Kit
As I mentioned in previous reviews, I recently downsized and ended having an online auction company come into my house and wiped me out of so many tools that I wasn't ready to part with. Unfortunately, on the day they came to categorize my stuff, I was sick in bed with a high fever and was unable to oversee what they ended up auctioning off. Two of the items that were auctioned off were both of my air compressors. I find air compressors great to have around as you never know when you're going to walk out to your vehicle only to see a flat tire. So I decided to invest in a new air compressor but one with all the necessary hoses and accessories. It gives me great peace of mind that I will end up stranded in my garage with a flat tire. I'm very happy with the model I chose especially since it comes with all the necessary accessories. I do wish it had wheels but I couldn't find a model with wheels and all the necessary accessories. To be honest, I kinda get confused with air compressors that don't include all the accessories. I'm not a mechanic so I didn't need a compressor that I would use on a daily basis. This Craftsman model basically has everything I need and it's not too heavy to carry although I don't plan on carrying it anywhere. So I'm giving it a positive review for folks who would like to have an air compressor but kinda get confused by the necessary accessories. Follow up. Today I finally "tested" the air compressor. It worked fine but I was unable to insert the hose and fittings unless the tank was empty. Even when I assembled everything, I found the part that you use to connect to a tire valve was not air tight despite having what I refer to as plumber's tape on the threads. Note that where the hose connects to the air compressor was air tight. So I think I need to use a couple of pliers or wrenches to better tighten the accessories. I did try needle nose pliers but they only helped a little bit. I should mention that it still would fill a flat tire in it's present condition. I also could easily reduce the pressure produced by the air compressor as I believe that would reduce the "leak" at the accessories into the hose. I still recommend this unit as I believe I'll be able to make the accessories more air tight. I should also mention that I have significant arthritis in my hands so perhaps someone without arthritis would not run into the problems I did. One nice accessory is an "air gun" which is strong enough to air clean the floor of the garage by spraying the garage floor to the outside with the garage door open. Just make sure any "lightweight" items are on shelves. ... show more
