My advice when comparing DCs is to look at CFM rather than HP.

I've looked at both, and price too obviously.
Thanks, guys.

Got the 2 HP Shop Fox DC from Toolcorral about 8 months ago and it works
well. No mechanical problems to date and all fit together as intended.
While the standard bags work fine with saw dust and wood chips, they appear
a little too porous when collecting the fine dust produced with solid
surface (Corian) materials. Perhaps, I need a finer mesh bag for this
purpose.

I looked at the 1029Z. The Shop Fox is less expensive. Also, the seller
(toolcorral.com) charges only $20 for shipping from NY to OH. How cool is
that?
Thanks, Dave.
