Just kicking the tires on dust extractors, looking at specs and debating for when the time comes that I want to purchase.
Have read a lot of good things on starmix, which in the states is Metabo or Mafell.

Spec wise They seem somewhat identical, with the exception being the Mafell is 220v, Metabo is 110v 220v isn’t a huge concern, as whatever I get will pretty much be used in the basement or garage, and I can wire up outlets appropriately. It would greatly reduce any opportunities to use mobile in other parts of the house or anything for clean up as needed. I do have other shop vacs for that though.
There isn’t a whole lot of information on either, so I guess I’m just throwing it out there for debate as to pros and cons. I’ve read the metabo hose is rather stiff and anti static. Does not come with the sustainer dock plate, now Mafell does (and I see a nice price increase for that)
Both are 9 gal capacities.
Intended uses would be small tool dust collection- track saw/ miter saw/ sanders/ ect.
Aaaaand go!
