The 5 HP will give you faster air recovery. The Central Pneumatic would be my 2nd choice.

DR99 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Just an Fyi these cheap oilless air compressors can be noisy as hell if your using it fairly often you might want to take that into consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awper Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Just an Fyi these cheap oilless air compressors can be noisy as hell if your using it fairly often you might want to take that into consideration. Ill probably use it 4 times a year. Should I get the Pneumatic instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 All of them at this price are going to be noisy but only 4 times a year I wouldn't bother with the extra cost. Sounds like the pro is the best deal of the bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Central Pneumatic compressors aren't to bad. They're on of the 3 gems at HF.DR99 is right about the oil less noise, but no more than your going to use it, it shouldn't be an issue and the maintenance would be a bigger hassle than any benefit would be worth IMO.

awper Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 How about a 30 gl crafstman 5hp 50 psi upright oiless for same price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Last count I had Craftsman was being made by Sanborn. Decent compressors. I believe they make the Kobalt compressors for Lowe's too. I'm getting ready to buy a 5 hp 80 gallon Ingersoll Rand myself. I still haven't completely ruled out the Kobalt yet though.

awper Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 There are a bunch of Craftsman air compressors that are under a recall. Thank you. I found another PRO 4000 with 3.5HP for $70. Comes with the hose, but seller cant tell me how old . I guess I'll go with the 5HP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
