Hi
My old workshop vac has just about expired and I'm looking for something with good filtration, quiet and reliable. Both the Trend T30AF and Fein QA35E seem to fit the bill. I'm leaning towards getting the Trend because it filters to HEPA level and the bags aren't as ridiculously expensive as the Fein's. Does anybody have any comments about either, will the Trend be as reliable as a Fein?
TIA Marcel
I'm not sure about these. I have a Bosch GAS50 which is a bigger machine than those you are looking at. They have the smaller GAS25 which is in the range that you are looking. Very solidly built.
There is an electromagnetic shaker which vibrates the filter to drop the dust into the container. This makes the filters last a *lot* longer.
There is a stopper in the bottom so that if youi suck up a load of water or wet material, it can be opened before needing to lift the container to empty it.
You can use it with bags or without.
