I am very happy with my 5 hp/30 gallon 220volt stand up model from Harbor
Freight.It costs around $400 delivered to my door, is US made and has been
trouble free for 5 years now. This unit replaced a Sears tank on wheels that
was pretty much useless for running air tools.

I run air impact guns, DA sanders, long board sanders, air chisles, sand blast
cabinet, and paint guns with all the air I need (not at the same time)

My veiwpoint and always with enough air.
