Does anyone have any recommendations for compressors for home use?

Not too expensive
Reasonable cylinder capacity so it's not running all the time
Good flow rate for power tools

cheers!

Costco have a couple in at the min, one a smaller Stanly @ £99, and another one that is huge, but no idea how much.

I found one, 3 hp V TWIN for running air tools. Always if you can go for more then you need power wise.
