Craftsman Air Compressor Appraisal

Craftsman Professional 175 PSI Oil-Free Vertical Air Compressor

The item is a Craftsman Professional 175 PSI Air Compressor with a vertical tank configuration. It features a black, cylindrical metal tank that appears to be roughly 2-3 feet tall, characteristic of a portable or garage-use compressor. The tank has the 'CRAFTSMAN PROFESSIONAL' logo prominently displayed in gold lettering on a black background, indicating its brand and series. The compressor unit mounted on top of the tank is also black, made of a molded plastic or metal housing, and includes a visible pressure gauge, various fittings, and what appears to be a red air hose connected. Labels on the compressor unit indicate '15 Amp 240 Volt' and 'Oil-Free Pump', providing key operational and maintenance details. The unit seems to be designed for high pressure applications, given the '175 PSI' prominently advertised. Condition-wise, the compressor shows signs of use typical for a workshop environment, with some dust and minor surface wear observable, but no obvious dents or significant damage to the tank or pump housing. The red air hose also appears to be in serviceable condition. The overall construction appears robust, consistent with professional-grade tools. While an exact age is not discernible, the style and 'Craftsman Professional' branding suggest it is a modern or relatively recent model, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century.
