Good Value good performance – Better than older model,
I purchased the C2002 WKR to replace a well used 10 year old Porter cable CF2600 120 psi 6 gallon compressor, which was overheating. With the exception of being packaged in a plain brown box (instead of the new model box printed white and red), and the small refurbished sticker on the compressor housing, my unit appears to be brand new. The box arrived in great shape with no dents or marks. I looked at a new C2002 at a big box store and it appears the plain brown refurbished box is slightly heavier than the printed new box, which is good thing if are buying on line and having it shipped.
What I like
- The oversized handle on top is a great improvement over the single sided grab pocket on the old CF2600
– The second air port is a great addition as It allows two guns to be plugged in and used at the same time.
- My model unit came with an accessory kit containing a 25′ air hose and fittings so no need to go by a hose for the second air port..
- There are features on the side of the pump housing for winding up the cord, and there is a cord clip molded into the plug. No more dangling wires during transport.
- There is a cover over the pressure gages and manifold – The cord on my CF2600 would occasionally snag on the unprotected gauges.
- The unit is slightly lighter than the CF2600 it is replacing.
- The 150 psi capacity with 120 psi recharge pressure means my framing nailer in particular can run for a long time. I was applying OSB sheathing to a roof ( nailing ever 8″ bang, bang, bang). By the time the air pressure got down to where the nails were not fully seated, it was time to stop and reload nails anyway. Note I run with the single shot sequential trigger. If running with the faster bump fire trigger, the compressor might not be able to fully keep up.
- Looking thru the slats in the pump housing I can see that Porter Cable has added internal ducts / baffles to improve the air flow of the cooling fan. My old unit was basically an open box with a fan at one end. On this new unit I can definitely feel a forced flow of hot air coming out the back compared to the more gentle flow on the old one.
Other comments.
- There is a warning label on the unit which says remove compressor from service (or replace tank) 10 years after date of purchase. Reason given is “Risk of Bursting. Water will condense in the air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture”. Owners manual instructs “Drain air tank daily or after each use.” : Realistically speaking even purging tank after each use won’t get out 100% of the water, so after ten years it is probably a good idea to retire the unit. Thus if the service life is only 10 years, saving the extra $$$ by buying a refurbished unit makes sense.
Very happy with the performance so far.
Aug 2011, One year update. Still very happy. I used it to do some spray painting which it does not have the proper capacity for, but it stepped up to the challenge and ran continuously for 10 minutes or so doing it’s best to keep up. The redesigned Proper handle ( compared to its’ predecessor with a pocket on one side ) makes transport so much easier.

|Perfect for what it is designed for!,
I bought this compressor because of it’s small size and portability and got something that does everything it’s designed for, and very well at that. If you’re looking for a compressor to top off a low car tire, blow out dust and dirt using the blow nozzle or run some of the low air consumption tools, this is a great compressor. The bonus is just about anyone can move it and its small enough to take it with you if you’re helping out a friend away from your own home. I bought the factory-reconditioned model from Amazon…BARGAIN. Hope this helps you evaluate how this compressor may help you.

|Excellent Product, great price,
I bought this to power a framing nailer. The compressor was refurbished. I received the compressor within 4 days from the date of order. The drain valve on the compressor tank was defective. However, Customer Service at Porter Cable was extremely helpful. They apologized for the faulty valve and ensured that I had the replacement part in 2 days. The compressor works great. It handles my framing nailer without any problem. I believe this was a very good purchase.
