Amazon.com Review
Let's face the ugly truth: you spend half an hour sanding something, and then you sneeze. It's horrifying, isn't it? Just imagine what's in your lungs. Delta Shopmaster has come up with the perfect remedy in the AP200 air cleaner. The 1/8-horsepower motor moves 850 cubic feet of air per minute, trapping sawdust, wallboard dust, and other byproducts in its three-pocket inner filter and its disposable, pleated outer filter. Can't make sense of cfm? Here's another way to look at it: the Shopmaster AP200 will clean and recirculate the air in a 20-by-20-by-8-foot room 16 times in one hour. The 50-pound unit has non-marring rubber feet to protect your surfaces and minimize vibration, and it also comes with eyebolts for ceiling suspension in your shop. We think this would be perfect in a home workshop--and for home remodeling jobs, too, because it's so portable. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 AP200 Works very well ! January 1, 2008
Mikell M. Todd Jr. (Lake Waccamaw, NC USA)
First and foremost, this unit performs the function it was intended for extremely well. When combined with a cyclone DCS, these two items keep my shop far cleaner than it was a few years ago. My only complaint would be that the unit will only accept Delta filters, which are ridiculously expensive. It is within about a half inch of accepting a standard size filter that is readily available at most home improvement stores, but those filters are slightly to large to fit. Hmm, wonder if that was intentional ?
 Clean air for the shop May 13, 2007
Daniel S. Perrin (Conshohocken, PA United States)
I bought this unit because I noticed that my furnace filter was turning the color of sawdust a few days after I bought a table saw. I did not like the idea of that stuff going into the heating system, but especially hated the thought of inhaling it.
I bought this instead of some of other similar units(e.g. the Jet) because of some complaints that those ones had poor packaging. My furnace filter has been clean ever since. In the winter I just turn the furnace off when I go into the shop (in the cellar) and the Delta on and let the Delta run for 1/2 hour or so after I leave the shop (which is 25 ft x 18 ft x 7 ft high). Before I turn the heat back on the shop is perfectly clean and the furnace's air filter no longer gets dirty.
This was packed securely and is working fine. It has a low metalic whine but it does not seem to interfere with anything. I have had it for a few months. I especally like the on-off switch that is located in the middle of the power cord. I have the unit mounted on a tall (4 ft. high)table and plugged into the ceiling socket so I can turn it on when I am walking down the steps into the shop. With that power switch setup I have no need for a remote control which adds $ to the cost.
To keep from buying the expensive Delta replacements I went to the local home improvement store and bought 6 filters 14 in. x 24 in by 1 in. for about $3.00. They are a little larger than the air-intake end of the Delta unit. I took a strip of wrapping tape (thick scotch tape about 2 in. wide) and put it across the top of that (very light) furnace filter. I then took one of those non-toxic glue sticks that are used to seal envelopes (that you can get at any office supply store) and applied glue across the area where the tape would meet the metal of the Delta unit (across the top).
The glue was strong enough to hold the filter securely over the outside of the unit where the Delta air-intake filter resides and it filters out a great deal of the sawdust etc. When you want to change the filter, the glue offers hardly any resistance and you can pull the old one off and repeat the process with another $.50 filter.
I have even used the air blower on my Shop-Vac to blow out the accumulated dust of that home improvement filter when I did not have the time to change it.
You don't even have to go through that if you just hold the 14 x 25 x 1 filter against the Delta and turn the power on, the suction will hold the filter against the Delata unit. It will just fall on its face when you turn the unit off.
I took a star off because of the slight metalic whine and because I am not sure how long it will last yet.

I received the filter system quickly -- something I didn't expect given the free shipping!
The unit works well in my garage where I do a lot of sanding and lathe work. The replacement pre-filters are expensive, so I'm thinking of cutting down furnace filters as others have suggested. However, overall the unit is great: reasonably quiet and does a good job of getting the fine dust out of the air quickly.

Product arrived 1 day earlier than stated - packaged very well - instuctions on unpackaging done very well - unit put in place and has been working extremely well ever since
As per an previous review - I attached an additional standard size filter on the intake side of the unit (I purchased the filter at a home improvement store at 1/3 the cost of the delta filters and just used masking tape to put the unit in place) because of the cost of replacing the non-standard delta filters

I do quit a bit of woodworking in my garage, with the inevitable result that everything gets covered with dust. This unit has made a huge difference.
It can be mounted on the ceiling, wall, or used on the floor.
It is heavy so I mounted 4 casters on it and built a small lipped top for it (screwed on both with metal screws). I can pull it where needed and have it serve a small table to hold tools.
It is somewhat noisy, but has all but elinnated the dust problem and makes the workspace much more productive.
