Re: New Compressor arrived today
That is a nice compressor.
I understand the comment about posting the price. I feel like I buy high so the next guy can get the deal. LOL
I just upgraded my small compressor (33gal) to a 60 gallon Kobalt. I had some reward points from my work and the compressor ended up costing me about $70 out of pocket.
I do not work out of the shop that much and the 33gal compressor had seen its better days, maybe 20 years old, with a piston and sleeve replacements 10 years ago and a pressure switch about 5.
I looked at the Champions and other high end compressors but for no more use I could not justify going that route.
My buddy has a Champion in his shop and it has been basically service free for 20+ years. He drains it regularly and changes the oil once per year. He runs a one, sometime two man body shop. The compressor has served him well.
Nice.
