Grizzly or Oneida Cyclone?????

[Mike Mortenson]

I am wanting to buy a new Cyclone. Just wanting your thoughts on which one to buy. I am wanting a 3 HP unit. Grizzly is cheaper and only 2 hours from me. Or is it worth the extra money for the oneida?? Thanks

Grizzly's works fine for me. Just keeps on running. Wilke (York Pa) also sells reliable equipment.

I recall a study saying most dust in a shop with dust collection equipment escapes at the point of the cutting or sanding machine anyway. That is certainly true with my stuff.

Both are fine systems.

I will mention that I've been extremely pleased with Oneida's product and services. If you took a drive to their place in Syracuse, a tour of the facility would let you know about their commitment to the small to mid-size shop dust control market. And by all means go to Grizzly's place and look at the systems up close, too. When you can do it, physically examining options before a major purchase is a good idea.
