Does Festool have package prices?

[Leigh Betsch]

Thanks for the help here Creeks. I got my answer and made my decision so what’s say we just kill this conversation before it turns into another manufacturer bashing.

have no problem with the replacement bags being considerably more expensive

really ?

Looks to me like the bags for that vac cost 10bucks each at the Depot. Same price as comparable sized Festool bags.

are fine with a three year vs. lifetime warranty

Have you tried to avail yourself of a warranty with ridgid vac ? Good luck. The FT is unconditional for 3 yrs - not defects. You’re gonna hit a wall of “normal wear and tear “ when you try and claim in five years on the Ridgid.

Ridgid are great vacs for the prices charged. They just aren’t in a league with premium vacs like festool , nilfisk, hilti, ect…. But not everyone needs/wants/can afford that level. Which is totally fine. There’s a product for everyone out there.
