Just don't buy a oilless compressor. They don't last very long.

A good quality oilless will last you a decade or more, as long you take decent care of it and are not using it non-stop daily. They are not built for that, they are designed for light-duty use.
Spot on, but folks buy them as a shop compressor, then try to push them to do too much. I did, tried a Cman 33 gallon one, cheaped out instead of buying a good compressor, thing was so freaking LOUD. Ended up buying the good compressor eventually, the one I have now keeps up with any air demand in my shop including the media blast cabinet with no problem and you can have a conversation standing next to it as it is VERY quiet.
