I have a 5hp Quincy 2 stage vertical tank.(small footprint) I have never run out of air even when bead blasting. As mentioned it is a slow running compressor and will last. I have had it 20 or so years and only changed oil and air filters. Harbor freight or Northern tool is where I bought it on sale. It was drop shipped from the factory.

Buy a good one and it will pay you back for a long time.
