not tryn to hijack the post, but i been looking at a 5 horse 2 stage compressor from home depot $800-$900. would you pass on it? is it junk?i dont need the cadillac of units. thanks.



Pass on it and spend an extra $200 (including shipping) and get an Eaton compressor from eatoncompressor.com. The Home Depot unit's true horsepower and free air cfm won't be nearly what the advertised rate is. And the quality of the motor won't be as good. It may cost a little more up front, but at least you won't need to replace it. Why spend $800-900 on a disposable unit? Trust me, I speak from experience.
