Yes. Clarke: erp! Very cheaply made.

I agree with Don. Clarke stuff varies a bit (I don't think they make it
themselves) but you'll usually struggle to find stuff which is more
cheaply made. Naturally the kind of compressor you want will depend on
what you want to use it for, but be aware that Clarke is regarded as the
most el-cheapo of el-cheapo. I can't comment on Erp.

Quincy is the best or among the best. They're pricey if bought new,
but don't be afraid to buy a used or surplus Quincy if you can find
one.

(Ignoramus, hold your brags unless you're willing to find this guy
one. )

Sanborn and Ingersoll make some reasonably good units for home shop
use.

I've been very pleased with my American IMC.
