About this product
The Kobalt 20-Gallon Portable Electric Vertical Air Compressor provides a robust 175 PSI maximum working pressure. It's an oil-free unit, reducing the need for regular maintenance. The compressor features a 20-gallon steel tank and operates on a standard 120V corded electric power source. Designed for portability, its vertical orientation helps conserve floor space while offering a good capacity for various air tool applications.
Our take
This Kobalt 20-gallon vertical air compressor hits a sweet spot for those needing more capacity than a pancake model but not quite a stationary unit. The 175 PSI is a strong point, allowing for more sustained tool operation or higher pressure applications. Being oil-free is a significant advantage, cutting down on upkeep. The vertical tank design is excellent for portability and storage, especially in tighter spaces. The 120V corded electric operation makes it easy to power. While the flow rate is within the 101-300 L/min range, for certain demanding tools, you might notice it cycling more frequently.
