Amazon.com Review
A good filtration system is as important as any tool in your shop, and the Jet AFS-1000 is a pretty inspired machine. Like other systems on the market, Jet's uses a two-filter process: an outer filter removes particles up to 5 microns in size and an inner, three-pocket filter traps particles as small as 1 micron. The electrostatic outer filter easily withstands three or four washings, and the inner filter can be blown clean easily with compressed air. On the power end, Jet's three-speed, 1/6-horsepower motor filters to 1044 cfm on high speed. The outer filter is well sealed and provides efficient intake. However, what really sets the AFS-1000 apart from most filtration systems is its remote control and timer features. Since these systems are most effective when placed high or hung from the ceiling, being able to control all of the unit's functions via remote control is a feature we quickly decided we wouldn't want to live without. The timer, which can also be set via remote, affords you the option to set it and forget it. --Justin Paul

 Good System September 19, 2008
Air cleaner works very good in my garage where I do wood projects and also store a classic car. Only problem is the plactic handle broke and the unit fell 3 feet to the floor. The unit was not damaged and I will replace the handle with a metal one.
 Good bargain and quiet too August 18, 2008

This is my second airfilter for fine dust control. I am impressed that the unit is so quiet. Compared to my equally sized Delta unit this Jet is a whisper at even the high volume setting. Installation was easy and all the parts were supplied as specified in the Amazon description. This has turned out to be a winner.
Jet AFS-1000B July 7, 2008
Only 4 stars due to the vibration from the squirrel cage. Not as bad as some have reported and pretty much goes away on medium and high. It does a good job filtering.
 Terrible QC on the fan June 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Another example of fine Chinese craftsmanship. The impeller on the fan was not perpendicular to the fan motor shaft; therefore, the thing vibrated like crazy due to the wobble. I ended up taking the entire assembly apart and truing the impeller myself, which took most of the vibration and excess noise out the unit. It sure seems like there should be better quality control, it makes me wonder how high the quality of the components are that I can't see. I imagine it will do an adequate job of filtering the dust in my shop though.
 Disposable filters the same size don't fit June 7, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this unit partly because I saw that I could purchase disposable filters at the local store the same size as Jet says they are 1x12x24. Well jet's filter is actually a half inch smaller in each direction as a normal filter is. In other words a standard filter of the same size doesn't fit. Not sure what I'm going to do at this point, probably will fabricate a transition frame to hold the"bigger" standard size. Jet wants $15 for their filter and the local store wants $4 for the standard size. I take this unit to job sites to help keep the customers house cleaner.
