Coleman Air Compressor: Porter-Cable C7550 80-Gallon 30-Amp 6-Horsepower Oiled Vertical Compressor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You can imagine my excitement to purchase this brand--
I was soon dissappointed.
From day one this compressor had a knocking rod noise-getting worse with pressure increase-
I also noticed quite a bit of oil in my serparator

I reported trouble -and it took 1 month to get a replacement pump.In the meantime, they had my pump on the bench at the shop.

The new pump had the same knocking noise-
I was told by the service man who disassembled my original unit, there was a large space between the rods, on the crankshaft end-they had been sliding back and forth and the pistons were slapping-
after 10 hours of use-there was 1/4" of metal shavings in the oil.
This is actually made by devillbiss--you will not even talk with a Porter Cable rep.
I was also told to repackage the old unit--
Short story-
in the 2 months I have owned mine-I have had 1 month of use--
Beware-I am sure there is a defect in this model----although the factory rep says it look like mine had a problem--several more have to be reported before they will look into it--
