I am needing to get a new air compressor as my little pancake is only producing about 40lbs at best and is extremely noisy. My dilemma is that I am a novice when it comes to tools and the quality of tools. So, is something like a Kobalt from Lowes going to be on par or as good as say the approximate equivalent from Sears in the Craftsman line? I will also be shopping for a good Shop Vac and am looking at the one at Lowes that is a 16 gallon 6.5 peak model but is pricey at $179. Recommendations and comments very welcome as I defer to your expertise.
