Re: Which air setup should I buy...need quick response Ok, by the ratings you mention , that would be a cheaply built single stage . 1yr warranty, that's no surprise . Consider a good point mentioned earlier , once you have air it's hard to live without it , and you will use it a lot more than you think . Also, at 15a that thing can eat you out of house and home , and the cfm rating is minimal at best . Keep you eyes open for a decent 2 stage 220v unit , with a cfm rating around 10 or better , you'll thank me later . I found a very old but reliable Speed Air 220/80gal 5hp/ 27cfm hog for a song , but I know what to look for on old compressors , this thing will outlive me by a long shot . Yes, it weighs 800lbs and will deafen you instantly, but it will also run an industrial sandblaster forever without hurting itself . Figure out what you want , multiply that by 2 , and buy one step higher.....
