Great small Compressor by Craftsman!

4

I purchased this compressor to keep my vehicle tires inflated. I have to say that this compressor is relatively quiet and gets the job done. I also use it to inflate my sons toys and bike tires with no trouble. Though I would recommend a longer hose for it, but it is light enough to move around.

Quality brand. Quality tool.

I was growing tired of stopping at the nearby gas station to add air to my car tires whenever they were low. At times, this service at a gas station even costs money! After buying my Craftsman 17 Gallon Horozontal Air Compressor about three years ago, these unnecessary stops are a thing of the past! The main thing that I use my Craftsman Air Compressor for is maintaining the tire balance on our family car. The convenience of not having to go to the gas station to do this far outweighs the cost of this air compressor. I was, however, a little disappointed with the short hose that came with the air compressor. In order to easiy access all four tires on the car without moving the air compressor, I had to invest in a longer hose. With two small children in our house, this air compressor also comes in very handy when it comes to many of their outdoor toys. In addition, I have used this air compressor for other tasks such as cleaning dirt and dust off of outdoor tools as well as off the garage floor. With countless other uses for this air compressor, I recommend this tool with full confidence!

Not a bad compressor

4

As far as compressors go, this Craftsman compressor is not bad at all. Initial Setup was easy, and it was up and running in no time. The compressor held air well and I was able to pump up a variety of sports balls, tires, as well as play around with the air sprayer just a few minutes after pluggin it in.  It rolls well, and performs the necessary around the house jobs ok. I have a pancake compressor as well and prefer that one since it is more mobile, but for the price this one is fine.

A must have for men

Craftsman. That name is well known in many households in america. I recently purchased the air compressor and am very pleased withit. I am married and even though i use it fot many things my wife finds just as many uses for it. I put up pictures, fix furniture and many other tasks that are usually boring. Now i look forward to fixing things. I can now put my snow tires on myself rather than go to a shop and pay money for it. It takes only seconds now to screw a screw into the wall were as before i could almost hurt myself trying to get it in all the way. It has many attachments to make your life easier. Nail gun attachments, highspeed , and many many more. This is a must have for construction workers too. The fact that it is on wheels makes it easy to move it to were you need it. It also can be made stationary if the job at hand calls for it. I am completley satisfied with my crafstman air compressor. So is my wife. My to do list has grown but now i enjoy it alot more.

good item, but have spare o-rings avail in case they fail

This is a great item for in the garage but I would reccomend that you order a few extra o-rings for the air line so that you do not have down time if you should need to replace one.  This has been a very handy item for air tools and work in the guarage.  There is plent of air in the Craftsman 17 gal. Horizontal Air Compressor.

Small yet does the job

I purchased this compressor for household uses.  It is small and portable enough to take inside, up and down stairs and load into the back of my vehicle.  Yet it is still powerful enough to get the job done.

Nice small and quite compressor for small tasks.

The Craftman 1.7 gallon compressor is great for small jobs in and around the home and/or work shop. It is a very quite compressor that requires oil in the crank case for lubrication. I have used mine for small jobs such as quick burst of an air hammer, air (blow) gun, and using a pneumatic drill. It is very light weight which makes it very portable. It is a must have if you have an RV. It is excellent for clearing the water from the plumbing when dewinterizing is an issue where you may live... It has plenty of CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) of air for servicing tires. It can also be used for cleaning the dust from Air conditioner coils, refrigerating coils, and even cleaning air filters. Further more... IT'S A CRAFTMAN!

Purchased for husband as a gift.  He is very impressed with the air compressor and its power.  He liked the brand name and warranty by Craftsman.  It is portable, easy to use, and doesn't take up a lot of space in his garage.  It works out so much better than having to go the the gas station to fill his air tank.
