Deal Details
Lowes has the DeWalt 15-gallon 5-SCFM portable vertical air compressor on clearance for $351.17 or less. If available, it may be in-store only for your local store.

Inconsistent reviews were provided by multiple users who did not read the manual. Specifically, this 120V 15A compressor requires either direct connection to wall receptacle or 12/3 extension cable (pg 2, para 4). Inferior cables cause voltage sag and premature motor failure. Also, it's bulky and 105-lbs so you might want to bring a friend to load and unload from your vehicle.

Generic Product Features:
  • 5.0-SCFM at 90-PSI allows the compressor to recover quickly after its initial tank charge is exhausted.
  • 225-PSI max tank storage pressure allows for longer air tool run times
  • EHP efficient high pressure technology to deliver exceptional air tool run times.
  • 78 dBA operational noise level for a "quieter" work environment (tested per ISO3477).
  • Metal console protects the gauges, coupler, and regulator.
  • Efficient high-pressure technology allows for longer pump and motor life.
  • Independently certified to applicable standards.
  • 1-year service contract; 1-year Warranty.
Good luck & happy deal hunting.

Showing as $479.00 for me. Either dead or only applies to a very specific location that isn't listed. Not available in store locally.

Picked one up for $351.17 at a Home Depot location 12 miles away.
Not available at closer stores but was worth the drive.
Thanks OP

I have a stationary 240V 60-gal Kobalt-branded Campbell-Hausfeld. CH makes MANY of the air compressor branded for other companies...possibly including DeWalt just like Delta does for saws.

I posted the deal because I know there are a lot of forum members who like DeWalt and I appreciate it when others post real deals on things I'm interested in. Sorry to members whose local Lowe's haven't put this on sale yet. I didn't mean to waste your time.

Depends on your needs. I do think that would be an option for me personally though.

15-gallon of 200 PSI air versus 26-gallon of 150 PSI air. (Might be same amount of air in tank)
5.0 CFM versus 4.5 CFM at 90 PSI (normal pressure after regulator to tools).

1 year service and parts warranty versus 3 year warranty (parts only?)

I like the idea of the quiet one though.

The stated specs are simply that and the warranties without a service center in your town are meaningless
