Hate to ask a question that has probably been beat to death but I need some quick answers. LOML has agreed that I need a dust collector for Christmas:eek: - but she needs to know which one I want and needs to know by tonight:eek: :eek: :eek: so she can go and get it from Rockler. I don't want to invest 400+ in one so I have narrowed my search down to the Jet 1100 or the Delta 50-850. I would love to have the cannister but its not in the budget now or probably not in the future for quite some time - like by the time I need to replace this one. Both have approximately the same CFM, neither will have a cannister, and the prices are fairly close (from about 280 for the Delta to about 320 for the Jet). I have heard pros and cons on both so I am asking for some advice:o . Space won't be an issue. It will be wired to 110 - no option there so let's kindly leave out the "you need 220" 'cuz I know I need 220 but only have the capability for one and I want a cabinet saw running on that. Kinda worried about noise - have only found one noise rating on the Jet at 70-80db and none on the Delta.
What are your opinions on these please? I know this has literally been beat to death but I trust you guys' opinions implicitly and I know that you are aware that I have to take advantage of this "one time only offer - hurry time is running out". No joke - don't have long to make this call lest she change her mind. You know how that goes!!:confused: !!
Thanks so much in advance - Mike.:o :o
