Dust Collectors-Grizzly vs. Oneida (cyclones)

[Thom Smith]

I am getting ready to purchase a 2hp cyclone DC system. Looking at the Grizzly and Oneida units. Wondering if anyone can give me any pros and/or cons on either of these DC products. Any comments would be welcomed.

They will probably both do a great job. If the price is near equal, I would go Oneida. If the difference is large, Grizzly owners on the forum seem happy with their cyclones and Grizz customer service. I found the Oneida to be a well done product from packaging, to attention to detail. The Baldor motor is something i expect to not wear out either.

Ther are lots of threads on these two manufacturers cyclones on SMC. Bottom line, people seem to be happy with both. I have the gorilla 2.5 and it works very well and is as high quality as I could have hoped for in a machine. Oneida's support was also top notch. Whatever you do, get a remote on/off and enjoy a cleaner shop.
