Well it is a bagless model with just a filter twixt motor and bucket and the other good thing is that as they were designed to start up when the hose was plugged into the wall socket it already has a built in relay and low voltage transformer for a start switch.
And it came with over 50ft of hose!
It is absolutely fantastic. Needs to be fitted centrally to a *circular* bucket for best effect - but I'm getting ZERO dust into the vac. Game changer.
That cyclone looks good and seems to do the job as you say. I got the manual with the vac and it states max suction power 480w, max air flow 55L/s and max vacuum 25kPA. Is that good or bad?

I've no idea where those numbers lie, relatively speaking, compared to other vacs, although mine is specified at 42L/s flow rate, even though it's a 1000W motor... So on that single metric your bargain vac outflows mine by circa 25%.
I liked the Evolution one for it's power pass-through function and also since it can be used as a wet vac and can also be used as a blower... still, I'm impressed that you only paid £10. Can't be beaten at that price.
I finally decided to get a “proper” vac for the workshop, my leaf vac conversion is ok for the wood thicknesses but sanding dust from lathe work ....
So I got something that goes down to half micron, it’s made a huge difference in the workshop
