I have a Husky from HD oil-less 21 gallon. It will run most stuff at home, impact, air ratchet, air chisel, tire filler. I can take off 5 lugs without it turning on. I don't know if a paint sprayer or air grinder would run off it for more then a few minutes.

If I could do it again, I would get an oil one, they are so much quieter and I would think they would last longer.

I just got this two weeks ago and it has been a life saver! I really wanted a bigger two stage unit, but it just wasn't in the budget. I also picked up a little cheap $40 air hammer that works great with it. My die grinder and cut off wheel I can use with it, but not for a long time. I had to use it to cut off a few bolts on the F-150 during the front shock/spring mount, and then hit them with my new air hammer.

 

Also it comes with a cheap Impact Wrench and Ratchet!

I've never heard about them good or bad. You could also go custom with a bigger tank if you go down by CSCC downtown cause there is a place there that sells compressors and have them get you setup. I had to go down there once to get parts for my friends Husky unit before and I just remember them saying they could make me whatever I wanted and even paint it what ever color I wanted for cheaper then a normal place.
