Basically, this Delta dust collector performance is just great but the issue that I have with it is the changing of the plastic waste bags. I'm very surprized that Delta designed such a great collector with such a lousy way of removing or changing the bags when full. The split metal banding that Delta has set up to attach the bags is just horrible. I feel like I'm in a boxing match when it comes time to change or empty the bags. I have an old 110v. Shop Fox that I used for years and emptying the bag was a breeze. This Delta 50-761 is a replacement for that unit. I hope someone reads this and can tell me of a fix for my situation. I can't be the only person that feels that this method of attaching the bags terrible and time consuming. I'm posting here because I have purchased things from Rockler and getting assistance on the Delta web site is nada. Like I said....great performance but the attachment method for the waste bags is BAD. I would not purchase this again just because of the reasons I stated above.

I have had this unit for a couple of years and must admit it works well. Allthough, the 1 micron top bag does clog up and gets very heavy and sometimes will not stay inflated. I would recommend getting a bag with a higher micron. But, overall, its a good machine although i think you could get a machine of equal quality for less money. I think they are all made by the same people. They are all made off shore anyway, so i think it really makes no difference. I would look at the shop fox w1687, its a lot less and the specs are about the same.
