I have a 5 h.p. 80 gal Eaton and it is a very nice machine. Keeps up with anything I do.
I added the auto drain valve which to me is a must have in the humid eastern U.S.
The only thing I would change is to go to a vertical tank as it takes less floor space up.
The only complaint I have with the Eaton is that the documentation was sparse when I bought it 8-9 years ago. I had to call the owner of the business to clarify a few things, but perhaps that issue has been rectified.
As to shipping, one thing to consider is that Eaton is just off I-70 in Ohio near Dayton. It might be worth a run for you since you are not that far away.
