Since both put out about the same SCFM and looks to be the same capacity you should go with the cheaper one. Most home users won't run the compressor often enough to justify paying more for "better quality". My last compressor got trashed because it was just too loud compared to the newer quieter compressors. I think it was around since I was in high school.... about 15 years old. Painted 2 of my high school cars with it in the backyard. Yup... Back in the day. =)
