There was a thread here not too long ago about oil-less compressors... I really can't stand my 3-gallon Porter-Cable oil-less compressor, at least for anything but staple/brad/finish nailing. I don't recall ever seeing non-oil-less in this price range.

SCFM, how much air per minute, THAT is important. You can get 90 psi in a hurry, but if it drops to 20 psi before you get through the first section of hammers you will be searching for new titles for the world's worst tool maker as you wait for the pressure to build up. I found that none of the "oil-less" compressors will keep up. Sears has a good model, usually on sale for $100 to $125. Worth every penny.
