Default Need recommendation for a air compressor

I am shopping for a 60 gal 5 HP or bigger air compressor. Can anyone
comment on Husky compressors sold at Home Depot? Any other brand?


Husky will work fine for inflating tires or running a small nail gun. It will be
a loud, vibrating single stage imported air compressor, probably impossible to
get parts for. However, it is much cheaper than what most guys on this NG
recommend, which is to buy a Quincy or Ingersoll Rand.

I suggest looking in your area at used industrial compressors.
