Buying a compressoer,looking for 'up right' one.help needed.

[hotspur]

If you go with one having wheels try to get the foam filled tires or solid wheels. I had to fill mine with Slime (http://slime.com/) to keep them inflated. Kinda sucks having a 200 lb. compressor fall over because it has a flat tire.

Yes,its a bit deflating having an air compressor with a flat tyre.......

Ok, so I found this.

I wouldn't buy any machine like a compressor from outside Australia.
Too many hassles with warranty and the US model will be a 120V so you will have to swap the motor.

You could try to locate the Ingersol Compressor distributors to the find a retailer but my guess is they will not even bother bringing that model into Australia and getting it brought in and motor changed will cost a bomb.

Tradetools renegade range has a couple of upright compressors. They have shops in southeat qld

The Trade Tools compressors seem to have a pretty good reputation and they make smaller upright units.
Pricier than most other garden variety stuphph but I have yet to see one come up second hand and I have NEVER
seen one at the tip!! I think that speaks volumes.

The common compressors from the Big Green Rabbit hutch and other such places can be found in swarms at our tip!
