I've had an oil-less craftsman compressor for something like 15 years. I
keep waiting for it to die so I have a better excuse to get one that will
keep up with sandblasting & cutoffs & such.
I wouldn't worry about the oilless compressors for even "moderately
active" enthusiast duty, if they put out enough air for your needs.

I don't think this would be a bad option, frankly. If you get it at a
price where if it fails in a year it won't bother you, the only surprise
you can get is a pleasent one.
And its not like the other compressors aren't made in china too (he said
cynically, with no real knowledge).
