question to our dewalt nuts / employees

In here at lowes and saw a 30 gallon air compressor, model #dxcmla1683066 but I can’t find any information/ price online to that one. I will upload some pictures later. Here it’s priced at 425

That model number doesn’t pull up ANYTHING. It’s keeps redirecting me to a Portable cable 30 gallon compressor.

This is the only 30 Gallon DeWalt I found.

The Porter Cable and DeWalt look almost identical though. Maybe Lowes mixed up model numbers.

i made a picture of the label on the air compressor….says the exact same thing… i have to change the size and then i will upload them

ya i just found the porter cable 30gal as well….

i also went into a another lowes and they had 2 30 gall air compressor inthere with the same label on it

I suppose you can take spec from the PC compressor.. I sure looks like the the PC

I’ll bet it was special order returned or canceled and Lowes had to key in the model number manually and messed up. I can find that item # in Lowes system.

Wait…. The model number is in the compressor tank from”DeWalt” ?????? I’m lost….

Either way, it’s a GREAT price.

I’d ask an associate at Lowes to give you their details on them. Ask if they are stock items. Negotiate the price down further.

You can get a $50 off $250 coupon online for $1.50 from eBay. That’ll make it $375.

i tried to get some details but their system doesnt tell you anything about it haha

its so weird that you cant get any informations, even online from dewalts page or so

There are tools that have different numbers and specs on them that are not listed on the Dewalt website but are in stores like lowes, home depot, and Andersons. Another good example is the 80 gal 2 stage air compressor the part number at rural king is different than the one on the Dewalt website. By looking at the two side by side there is noticeable differences in the motor an air port plug ins. There is also a big difference in price. From what i gathered when talking to sales reps is the rural king is a cheaper version put into stores like that. There is also times when a product gets a part number just for one store I have ran into it a couple times when trying to price match 2 kits with lowes beat it by 10% policy. If the part number don’t match they won’t beat it even though they are the same probably a scam lowes created lol

yeah that kinda makes sense….

i just found the exact same one online; just from Porter Cable.

They’re both Stanley Black & Decker companies. They look identical to me.

I think somebody is switch hitting for both companies

These large compressors are licensed products. MAT Industries makes these compressors and pays Dewalt to use the name. You can see “MAT Industries in the label further up this page.
