I use the shit out of it. 8 years now.
The Sears in Redding also has Ingersols in stock on occasion for not much more.
I would recommend a new one if you plan on making it a fixture in your garage, used ones are generally used up...
Mine is losing the lower end now I think, it gets HOT and never used to.
But still, 8 years is a good run IMO for that price.
I could replace the entire compressor unit for around $400 I think?
What do you guys think about this one?? http://www.lowes.com/ProductDisplay?...ductId=3370356
Price looks good and out of 22 reviews only one bad one.......and that one was bad out of the box??
Makes 11 CFM @90PSI and comes with a 3 year warranty!!
I agree.......those of you that know me realize that I'm just a little anal about my shit........new would probably be more my style :D
I like the Ingersoll below it better....Quote:

Same model I have now, kicked ass for 7 years.

Yeah....I saw that but it's 30% more money, 20% less HP and only 135 PSI vs. 155 PSI........although I agree that IR is a good name. The breaker for me is that the IR is white and it will probably always show the dust in my garage :DQuote:

I'm not a real fan of the Sears Local shop here in Havasu.......never really liked these guys and Lowes has been awesome......I think I'd rather deal with them on warranty issues......especially with 3 years vs. 1 year on the Craftsman......but that's just me :D
Good points, I paid more 8 years ago than what it is going for on sale.Quote:

Our sears is a good one though, happy shopping!!
Sooooooooooooooooo............It looks like you need to buy a separate regulator for pressure out with these larger units.......does that sound right to you guys??
I was going to put in a water trap anyhow but just wondering??
