    The main purpose of my review is to counter a couple previous reviews. So far my complaints are minimal and nit-picking. Assembly - instructions are not great, but anyone with DIY skills will be fine. Why have a combination of M8-15mm & M8-16mm hex bolts? With a one millimeter difference why bother? Assembly time = 30 minutes. Unit seems solid except for the flimsy bag arms which is typically of all the units at which I looked. Suction - I have not measured the CFM, but with two 4" hoses run to a downdraft table saw collector and a downdraft router table box I could use the unit without gates. Of course closing off one tube increased suction significantly. Sound - This is where I differ with previous reviews. They said it was noisy. I say relative to what? The Jet 2 h.p. is rated 80-85dB. The Powermatic 1.75 h.p. is rated 75-90dB. This unit is rated >78dB @ 3'. I did not find this to be true on my unit. Using my S.P.L. meter I found my unit to be 82dB @ 3' and 80dB @ 10' with one hose connected and one closed off. Although it did not meet the stated ratings, I am surprised at how quite my unit is. One thing which allowed me to pull the trigger on this purchase - Although I have been unable to find a canister filter specific to this unit, I measured the top @ 19.5" diameter which is the same as a couple JDS and General units I measured. I am hopeful in the future I will be able to retrofit the unit with a one micron canister. I definitely consider this unit a good value.

    I'm not including a "recommend to a friend - or not" because it really depends on one's space and budget. This fits mine (both), but it's not the very best option. When I get 1) a bigger shop, and 2) wealthier, I'll upgrade.
