Message Tonight my Kobalt 26 gal air compressor system just went the hell and quit. I should have taken pics of the sparks flying. Now I know people say once the warranty runs out, things fall apart fast but man the 90 free replacement warranty was only up only 5 days ago. So I called Lowes and ask for the tool department and explain what happened. The gentleman working there tells me that seeing how its only 5 days over the replacement he will talk to his manager and see what he can do. 5 min later he’s back on the line and tells me to just bring it back for exchange of a refund. So seeing how this one kicked the bucket as early as it did I just figured ill get my money back and get something better. I was wondering if anybody might be able to recommend something under $500 that is good for over all used not to big and bulky that’s not required to be mounted in a stationery possession. I don’t need anything too big, like for body repair or anything like. I just need something good enough for working out of the house. The tools I am using include ½ impact, ¼ air drill, die grinder, ¼, 3/8 and ½ air ratchets. This unit here is the one that I returned tonight [ http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=99007-71025-VLK1582609&lpage=none ]

Here are some possible replacements I am looking at. If you have one of them, have some insight or if you want to recommend something else pleas feel free to let me know.

Kobalt “Lowes”


Colman “Home Depot”

Thanks in advance -- Tony
