I have not done much with it, but I think I am overgrowing my old Delta 1HP dust collector - I filled the bag twice in a couple of days and it is a real pain to reinstall the bag after emptying it, it just drives me nuts trying to align the bag and install the clamp...
I have been eying the GyroAir 700 for quite a while now and I saw great reviews on YouTube. Out of curiosity, I started looking at the Felder dust collectors and the RL125 or RL140 seem like interesting options, but for almost double the price.?
Has anyone contemplated the same options and decided one way or the other, or should I look at something else. I live in Canada so my options are more aligned to what is offered in North America.
