Which cyclone Dust Extractor. 1K budget

[Chunkytfg]

I'm in the market for a new Dust extractor as my old Record Power DX5000 is not quite cutting it any more.

I've been looking at either the Axminster or Charnwood ones.

The Axminster is this one ... https://www.axminstertools.com/axminster-workshop-aw145ce-cyclone-dust-extractor-230v-107571

The Charnwood is this one ... https://charnwood.net/product/charnwood-c300r-2hp-cyclone-extractor-with-remote-start/

They both are very similar performance wise but the noisiness of the Charnwood one seems quite a bit lower that the Axminster one?

Other than the noise what am I missing about the differences between them? The Laguna Cflux1looks great as an alternative but its so much more money and probably a bit excessive for my needs.

Can anyone think of an alternative or give advice for which one of the two to buy?

I'll be needing it to connect to the usual selection of tools. Table saw, Bandsaw, Mitre saw, small CNC router etc. All via a soon to be built ducting system

Little in it really. and 7db is nothing given when its on you'll be wearing ear defenders.
5 yr guarantee charn/3 on the ax i dont think is the clincher.
Airflow is probably more accurate on the ax, the charn only quotes one speed, and isnt taking into account its more at 150mm
£Ax is 150 cheaper

I'd go with the ax as its cheaper and looks less cobbled together.

Another option worth considering I think is to go for a CamVac (a two motor one comes in at around £420) and combine that with the standalone Axminster Workshop AW118CI Cyclone Interceptor.

If noise is an issue, there are a lot of solutions on the internet about how you can port the outputs of a CamVac to an outlet box to get the noise right down.

If you combine the CamVac with magnetic connectors (like the Rutland ones) you'll have a really flexible solution.
