CT 15 dust vacuum vs CTM MIDI dust extractor

As the Festool dust extractor range grows, it can be tricky to know where to start and what the differences are between the units.

Two new models that seem quite similar initially are the CT 15l HEPA Class Dust Extractor and the CTM MIDI-I 15l M Class Dust Extractor

Both feature the latest design with electronic control panel and both are 15-litre capacity, but truth is they’re worlds apart.

The CTM MIDI dust extractor is a compact yet high performance M Class unit, perfect for anyone who needs to keep safe, compliant and efficient on the job site when working with power tools.
