I bought this with the CT 26 vac system all at once, I cannot possibly tell you how pleased I am with this system.It does a superb job at separating the wood chips and dust from the filter bag.I know it seems like a lot to invest but you won't regret it at all.The shipping was very fast and the product arrived in perfect condition from the vendor.

First of all I’m a Festool Fanatic and I am a professional cabinet maker, so this was an answer to a problem I had in my shop. My shop vacuum is set up as a tool caddy, with the boom arm hose and a moving work station. Whenever my vacuum bag was full I had to disassemble my unit to retrieve the bag and replace or empty the bags (I set up a way to suck the dust out with my large delta 4†vacuum to save money on bags) So when I caw this product I was excited but the reviews were mixed as to performance. To be honest, when I first installed it I was concerned that the suction was reduced quite a bit from a straight hose connection, but decided to give is a trial run with my current project. After cutting several sheets of plywood and solids, I was surprised at how well my saws and sanders worked collecting the dust. I saw no loss of suction efficiency in my tools, and the CT Cyclone bin filled up and I dumped it not having to get to the bag. I have not used my router or domino yet, but I’m sure it will continue to perform well. I will give an update later if it does not. So far so good with my first experience.

It fits perfectly inside my workcenter and paired up to my ct-26, it very effectively seperates almost everything from the air stream. I have not had to change a bag since i installed this, and there has been no loss in suction. Expensive, (duh, festool) but worth it.

As with all Festool products, this is a well thought out tools that just works so well. It’s hooked up to my CT36 AC and captures probably 95% or more of the sawdust my saws spit out, drastically reducing time spent emptying bags or tossing out reusable bags for those that don’t use a lifetime bag. Just like all things Festool, I put this purchase off for a long time because of cost, but as soon as I bought it I wish I just sacked up and bought it years ago.

Way overpriced as you already now. However let’s get down to it.I have this on my CT MIDI. Yes it fits it like a glove.You do loose some suction but it’s not a shop vac. It’s a dust extractor. If you want to suck the paint off a car use your shop vac. If you want to catch fine dust and medium chips but don’t want to blow through vac bags then this is a great pair to your festool vac. I use the extractor with my midi no matter what I’m doing. I use it with the track saw. Table saw everything and anything.Big chips are a waste of time. Sanding and cutting with a track saw or miter saw this is my go to set up. I will note that the cyclone parts are friction fit and uses the sustainer lid to hold them in place. It’s really easy to get the parts Misaligned and you will notice a dramatic drop in auction when they are not seated correctly. You will notice some loss in auction but still plenty of power to catch sanding dust and chips. Also a standard shop vac hose will plug right into this thing.

Bought CT-48 and CT-VA-20.The Festool systainer stacking was a requirement to maximize my usage with minimal floor space.The Cyclone will help to minimize filter and bag usage. Nothing has escaped outside of the vacuum. It will also capture clean sawdust from the cabinet doors that I will sand and repair due to cat.Exceeds my prior ShopVac and tools which dumped everything all over even with fleece over the filter.Don’t tell my wife, I even clean up more frequently ;-)

Für war das eine sehr gute und sinnvolle Anschaffung. Ich als Küchenmonteur kann den CT-VA für tägliche Sägearbeiten gerne weiter empfehlen.

Game changer - no more beeping every minute blocking the filter when vacuuming the workshop floor. Hardly anything reaches the vac itself now & all goes in the cyclone! Expensive addition but engineered beautifully as expected being Festool & makes everything work better.

Très efficace en complément de l aspirateur et permet de consommer moins de sac sur l aspirateur car il reste que les particules fines dans le sac.
