Need some compressor recommendations---Help!

I'm ready to buy a compressor and I'm torn. I've had my eye on a Ingersoll Rand 60 gal., 5hp, single stage compressor. It's scfm is rated at 18.1 for $799.99 or I found a Kobalt at Lowe's (60 gal, 7hp, single stage) that produces 13.3 scfm for a touch over $500. Obviously, the Ingersoll Rand is a better compressor but would it really be worth the extra money? I plan on using for everything (sanding, painting, etc). Any input would be awesome.
