Festool Dust Extractor -- Comments?

[Ellen Benkin]

Hello, Shane Holland with Festool USA here. All of our dust extractors have the same specifications, with the exception of capacity. All have the same 137CFM motor, standard Full Unit HEPA certified with HEPA filter, and same features.

Shane,

I have searched almost everywhere including the Festool site and can find no mention of any HEPA capabilities for the Mini or Midi. Are you sure they are HEPA certified?

I just bought a CT26, and saw the same info everywhere as well - they are all HEPA certified now. The big thing to think about is the accessories. The 26 and up have a different accessory profile than the mini/midi's. The boom arm was one of the clinchers for me as I plan to get one in the future. The 26 and up also has a hose exit out of the front instead of the top, which may be a consideration as well.
