I would tend to agree with Paul...
The cheaper units may take a lot of air and not put out much "grunt", and
they may not last long either.  Ever notice how Harbor Freight sticks with
a
30 day warranty?

I bought a 3/4 inch 115vac Hitachi unit via Ebay for less than a hundred 
bucks.
It has done everything I have ever called on it to do.  I went electric 
because I
dont have compressed air yet (and have little space in my workshop to put
in
what I would like to have.)
