    Stihl Vac on the market

    I saw this unit at my local hardware and was pretty impressed. Performance figures, weight and capacity all seem very competitive plus it is QUIET I believe the tag on back said made in Hungrary. Stihl has a good name and at $350. DSRP, it looks likes a good tool.

    Does look like a quiet capable sucker but without a tool activated start (which I didn't see) not really a contender in my book. Fein, Festool, Bosch, Porter Cable and I think the Dewalt all have it. I know you could add it but I think in the general price range I would get the Fein.

    Surprising omission

    I agree. Why in the world would they not have the tool activated start? They're not targeting the $49 borg market.
