I have no experience with the HF air compressor. You might try browsing the 
forums at www.garagejournal.com - they often discuss HF items. (don't blame 
me for all the time you spend there, however...)

I bought a 'used' 5 HP IR air compressor via CraigsList. It looked like new 
for ~ 1/2 the price. I changed the oil and it has needed no further 
maintenance.
