    When one of mine melted down I went with the black box vac. It has done well and now they have been upgraded with a steel housing since I got mine. Been happy with it for 2+ years now. I did have to replace one motor a couple of months ago, the motor itself didn't fail, a seal failed and got sucked into it due to the deflection of the mounting board (looks like PVC) and it got loose. The new metal versions should have have that issue. I have an older Hurricane version but rarely have to use the second stage. It pulls almost 10" on a single stage. Yeah, it costs, but what doesn't. For the money, best solution I've found so far.

    Looking it to the Hurricane, just need to find out what it will cost to get a 30apm 220 to the bot.
