Does anyone know what kind of warranty Porter-Cable reconditioned air
compressors have? (the little "pancake" compressor) I'm looking at them
at Amazon.com, and it doesn't say anything at all about the warranty. I
bought a PC reconditioned nail gun a few years ago and have been really
happy with it, but I don't remember the details.
This is for a gift for my dad, and I'll be having it shipped direct to
him, so I won't have any opportunity to inspect it.
Thanks,
Bob

Factory reconditioned tools usually have the same warranty as new tools.
Sometimes, the reconditioned tools are better than new tools, since weak
spots, or recall items, have been corrected.

PC used to be US made and tops, repairs are done here and im sure are
right. I have 14 or so PC tools, I would buy a factory fixed unit. 25
years ago my new PC drill went bad they fixed it and its fine today.

For warranty contact PC for info. I would think if PC fixed it and you
just buy it it will have some sort of warranty.

That's the key...one has to be sure it's actually OEM-factory
reconditioned or at least OEM-sanctioned distributor.
As noted upthread, it's become so difficult to tell who the actual
vendor on Amazon is any more one has to be particularly careful. :(
I, consequently, have changed from first to "last resort" for Amazon.com
