Don,
As a former sales rep for a well known compressor company, Go with the oil lubed units. They last 200 years, are 100% quieter and are easier to maintain. The OIL FREE compressors suck. They are for the home owner that will use it once a year. The cylinder sleeve needs to be changed every 500 or so hours no matter what people tell you. Devilbiss, Campbell, Craftsman are the way to go.
