Hey there guys!

After using the search function I was not able to find this specific topic being covered, I did find it odd that this question had not already been addressed or at least easily accessible using the search function. :headscrat

Some things Im looking for:
*In the range of 60 to 80 gallons, 80 being what I'm leaning towards, as it will be used in a for profit setting.
*I'm looking for something that will last me many years.
*Prefer it to be a vertical (upright) compressor for space saving purposes.
*Price is a big deal. Looking for something under $500 but if that probably severely limits my options Im open to spending more. (Unfortunately I missed out on the Tractor Supply IR closeout)


My issue is I have never really payed attention to all specs that may be listed on a compressor or what they mean necessarily. If anybody has a link or is willing to fill me in on what all of the specs mean that would be great. It would really help me in making an educated purchase. The only thing I have payed attention to in the past was size of tank
:lol_hitti


Alright Gents so if you have any sources to good quality compressors (USA is a plus, however, COO is of not a determining factor as long as the quality is there.) at good prices, or coupons available please fill me in. Any and all help is greatly appreciated

You should be able to find a decent used 60gal on your local CL, in the $300-$500 range...$500 for a new quality unit ain't gonna be easy to find...

^ Tampa, I understand it may be difficult to find a decent one NEW from a retailer or tool dealer but if a new one is available at or near my price range that would be fantastic like I said im open to paying more if necessary. Im definitely open to the option of buying used on craigslist (I buy most of my tools used on craigslist anyway)

However I could definitely use some info on which brands or specs to keep an eye out for (for quality purposes) even if they are used from craigslist.
