I need to buy a new one. Looking at home depot stuff. I want to go 60-80 gallon. 110 power. The brands i've seen are Husky, Coleman. I want to spend about $550-700. Any recomendations?

I've always used Emglo compressors. They were bought out by Dewalt recently. I've never had any luck with any Home Depot compressor...pure junk. Actuallly, they sell a small Hitachi that is pretty good.

I just looked up that brand. Seems they have smaller portable types. I need a med size stationary one. Looks like i'll have to stick with the 60 gal. for 110 power.

I bought mine at Home Depot about 8 years ago and have used it like crazy, granted it's an Ingersoll-Rand unit, not one of the crappy oil-free, direct drive throw away dealios. ;)

I've been told that the home depot husky brand is pretty good. They have a better warranty than most.
