I have a Festool CT26 for my sander station now. I'm looking for a quiet hepa vac to put on my miter saw station (before you say it, I tried to build a hood and just don't have room in the location it has to sit in my small shop). My miter station is behind my workbench and against my roll up door. Every hood design I've come up with doesn't allow full saw movement without hitting the door or requiring me to move the bench, but I just don't want to give up any more room around my bench. So, that said, the compromise for the moment looks to be a good hepa vac until I one day have a larger shop or get the epiphany on a hood design that may work.
I've been looking at the Fein Turbo II heap, the Makita VC4710 help and the Nilfisk Aero 26 Hepa. They are all somewhat close in price and a lot less than another CT26 Festool. Any thoughts on which vac would be best in this role? It wouldn't really need adjustable flow but I want it quiet which is why I'm not looking at regular shop vacs like the ridgid I use for floor cleaning. The miter station is fixed and will not move, so it's not a jobsite setup.
Another option is that I could move the CT26 to the miter saw, but then I'd have the same question above about what vac works best to replace for my festool sander station. I had thought about getting a CT15 for my sander station since I already have an antistatic hose setup there, but not sure if it would be a good choice there or not.

Makita: https://www.amazon.com/Makita-VC4710...s%2C167&sr=1-1
The Festool CT26 I have on my sanding station fits between Makita and Fein for CFM rating.
Thanks for any insight on these 3 brand hepa vacs.
