Campbell Hausfeld FP209599 air compressor
Date Published: 7/7/08
Campbell Hausfield's FP209599 2-gallon air compressor packs a lot of features and a great value for its size and price. We were intrigued with its sleek but sensible design, which includes twinstack tanks (two 1-gallon air tanks) for twice the stored air power. That's more than enough power for inflating, nailing, stapling and air brushing. And yes, you can do any of those projects without having to bring out the big guns to do it.
Not only is the FP209599 incredibly compact, it also has a comfortably padded and super sturdy handle for easy portability and easy storage. But it also comes with a bonus 2-in-1 nailer/stapler kit and inflation accessories. There's even an onboard clip to house your nailer/stapler when not in use. Everything you need and it only takes one hand to carry this air compressor to where you want it -- that's portability to the max!
We found everything on this unit to be very user-friendly. The gauges are conveniently placed within easy viewing above the air tanks in an integrated control panel. Keeping an eye on the air pressure is a simple task with this tool. Oil-free operation means less maintenance as this air compressor does not require lubrication to operate. Even the cobalt blue color is a standout on this air compressor. The only downside -- and it's a small one at best -- is that the noise level is a bit on the high side for its small size. But then, that's what hearing protectors are for.
When the pressure is on to find affordable and portable power in an oil-free air compressor, the Campbell Hausfeld FP209599 is an impressive find and a great buy.
Pros: Twinstack tanks offers greater stored air power in a compact and user-friendly design, padded and sturdy handle for easy portability and storage, lightweight, comes with a bonus 2-in-1 nailer/stapler kit, 25 foot recoil hose and inflation accessories, convenient onboard holder for nailer/stapler, integrated control panel with easy to read gauges, outstanding customer service
