Doesn't Work Very Well

Posted By: Jim

Location: Grafton, MA United States

Comments: Just tried cleaning a CleanStream filter I use in my Rigid 16gal vacs. The same as Craftsman Red, which Tornado says will work. Fine. Directions say can't spin over 1000 RPM. As such it doesn't seem to produce enough centrifugal force to spin enough dirt out. Filter clogged with normal sawdust and dirt debris from shop floor, nothing out of the ordinary. Filter only about half clean after using Tornado. Filter frequently falls off axis inside the bucket while spinning and hits the sides of the container. Horribly out of balance piece of gear for something designed to spin. Tried with several drills, all of which do not wobble on their own. Difficult to place filter centered in the bucket on the first place. If I keep this at all it will be for only removing the first half of debris and then spinning filter dry after washing my CleanStreams with water in the usual way.

Great product

Comments: I have used this filter cleaner for a few months and have had great a experience. It does just what it says. I used to beat my filters in a trash can. Dust would go everywhere including on me. Now I just open the top of the cleaner, drop it in, spin it and pull out a clean filter without any dust on me!! Being that I am a car cleaning fanatic, I use this product at least every other month. Typically I would have to buy 3 to 4 filters a year. I haven't bought a new on in over a year. That more than pays for the cost of this unit. Thank you to the person who finally invented something practical and actually works!!! I recommend this to anyone who uses a shop vac.

Works OK

Comments: I have found that the product cleans the filters well if I use my electric drill and higher speeds than recommended. I have been unable to produce acceptable results with any cordless drills. I use a few short pulses and the filter comes out clean.

Didn't impress much

Comments: Doesn't Work Very Well. Tried it out on a filter not nearly as dirty as the on in video. Filter was somewhat cleaner but you could still knock dirt off it.
