    Delta AP400 (Good Buy?)

    Lowes is selling the Delta AP400 1 HP single stage dust collector for $179.10. Is this a good deal? And, is it a decent dust collector?

    Good deal...? Well I think they list at $199, so decent deal, not great. Good dust collector...I have been happy with mine. You will want to get a 1 micron top bag for it because the 30 micron bag it comes with isnt good enough. I got mine at Hartville Tool. This is a good small collector for one machine at a time.

    I have one and I wish I would have bought the next level up. it just does not seam to have enough suction power, mine came with a 5 micron bag. but the new ones come with a 30micron bags. keep in mind as you change the bag to say 5 microns the bag is more dence and therefore you need more power to it to work more properly.

    If you can affor it I would go with 1 1/2HP DC and a 1 to 5 micron bags.
