not too bad a deal with the accesories but i had one of those sears oiless compressors. i would NEVER EVER NEVER buy one again. VERY cheaply constructed.
i would highly reccomend spending more for a quality unit with cast iron components like this if you can afford it. just my .02 http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/produ...cegjdghldfoo.0

I leave it at 150 psi, and it kicks on at 120psi, so when you are working it is almost constantly on. I use it all the time though
same here i have a 25 gallion craftsman

another thing get a vertical unit the save on space like you wouldnt believe

A friend of mine had a 30 Gallon Oilless compressor... It worked great... Gave him 5 years of constant use... But we could hardly talk over it... The he got the Dual Stage piston compressor.... That thing is soo quiet, and pumps up sooo fast...
there ya go,, piston type............

You know it really depends on how much you use it vs cost. I have an oilless compressor with the 5Hp motor that drowns out full blaring AC/DC. But it gets the job done, never had a thing go wrong with it, and have had it for 11 years.
