I have had a 1 hp Campbell-Hausfeld for 45 years and it did great until I dropped it off a fork lift. It even powered a two post hydraulic lift in my old shop. I replaced it with a modern C-H equivalent which is a POS and once I got the antique fixed again (thanks to a PPOT denizen's machining expertise - (http://forums.pelicanparts.com/off-topic-discussions/805483-where-get-custom-machining-done.html) the new one sits while the old C-H rattles on. I have this C-H compressor (http://www.homedepot.com/p/Campbell-Hausfeld-60-gal-Electric-Air-Compressor-VT6275/203002178?cm_mmc=Shopping%7CBase&gclid=CPTd1b_CvcUCFUISHwod_2cAzQ&gclsrc=aw.ds) to run my blasting cabinet. It is such a POS that the weld at the bottom of the tank is leaking. The motor and pump run fine but the frikkin' tank leaks. I guess the only advice I can give is don't get Campbell-Hausfeld
