Thank you for detailed and very informative review, considering purchasing this unit as a replacement for my current 2 hp cyclone unit , hoping to get more quietness in my shop , and I love how compact it is .
@@igorreshetov7565 Igor, You are welcome and I appreciate you finding my channel. After having this for over a year I can tell you I am just as happy today as day one. The one addition I have made is adding full throttle blast gates from Woodpecker tools. Good luck and God bless
Thanks for the great review. I have watched several reviews on the G700 but no one discusses in detail at what setting to run each tool. This appears to be a great advantage since the machine is quieter anyway and since one has the ability to dial it back it is even quieter. You just answered my final question. I'm headed to the Harvey website to make my purchase!
I want to thank you for responding so quickly and also giving me your opinion and advice. I have the exact same unit as you accept mine is a KING INDUSTRIAL. I will be just running 4” line along the floor to my tools.
Appreciate your presentation style. Just like listening to an old friend. Very personable. I am waiting on my electrician to wire my shop and I am off to the races with my new G700. Your info will be very useful. Thanks.
This is probably the best compliment I have ever received! Thank you! I am glad you found the information helpful. Let’s hope that electrician gets there soon. Let me know how it all works out for you.
Hello and thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge on this unit. I am a retired man who just moved location and went from my 26x28 shop to my new 20’x20’ and this time 10’ ceiling. The shop is so small that I am jammed backed with the tools I can put into shop. Compared to my old shop . I have a 2 hp 1200 CFM King Industrial dust collector with the baffled filter. My question is, did you find that your shop itself was very dusty throughout with your previous HF unit? And has that gotten much better since the upgrade? I have a Laguna Fusion 2 table saw and it has the WORST dust containment of any table saw I have owned in my 58 yrs. But I just this week, started to make cedar flower boxes for our new home and I am disgusted with the amount of dust is on the floor settled after I have been out of shop for a couple hours. I also need to mention that I have 4 separate smaller dust filters running all the time that I’m in my shop and it’s like I have no dust collection at all. So after this very long description of my layout, do you think I would benefit from purchasing a G-700 ? I have to mention like someone already has but your approach, your pace in which you speak and just your overall personality is very nice and very easy to listen and understand. So a big 👍 to you .
Hello and thank you for the compliments. Yes I do believe that my shop is cleaner than it was before. One thing I would recommend is that you also check out the blast gates from Woodpecker tools www.woodpeck.com/fullthrottle-blast-gate.html they are worth the investment and sela very well. I also added over head dust collection to my table saw that vastly improved the air borne dust. ua-cam.com/video/S8ZjM9NNGfA/v-deo.html I also run a WEN 3-Speed Remote-Controlled Air Filtration System (300/350/400 CFM) - I have 8' ceilings and this works great. SO with your 10' ceilings you should have no problem.
Thank you so much for that independent opinion. I am looking for this unit in some near future but the only reviews I can find on UA-cam are paid or sponsored. The only question that remains to me, is the period at which the pleat filters needs to be cleaned. I have a 2hp single stage unit with a pleat filter. The speed at which it gets clogged up is phenomenal. Even more when I work with mdf. It is just horribly how quickly it does looses suction. Brushing the inside with the paddles does not make any difference. Well, thank you once again for having taking the time to share your experience. BTW, just to let you know, the Siemens VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) used to run the motor is actually a real industrial motor control. This is a high quality product. The acceleration and deceleration ramps are parameters of the drive and certainly programmed by Harvey. This could be modified but I'm not sure they would like their customers to do so. At the same time, these acc/dec ramps reduces mechanical and electrical stress on the motor which in turn prolongs it’s life.
I am glad this helped. The filters are a new experience for me but so far so good. They seem to work very well and clean easily. I normally turn the paddles after each planing session and when I empty the bags I visibly inspect the outside of the filters. I have decided not to make the hose connection that combines the two of them. I take the caps off either at the end of the week or beginning of a new week and clean out the dust repository. It amazes me how much is there. I have never seen any reduction in suction power as I work throughout the week I do understand I will need to change these yearly but I have not come to that point as of yet. I hope this helps Roger
Sounds great except for the alarm/suction stop. Would make a lot of sense to have two alarms, one as a warning and one when full. I wonder could one install some kind of sensor for this. Maybe a leaf switch near top of bucket
So I am up in Canada and things are much more expensive for us to buy these gates and valves etc. So in regards to the G-700 does it have any suction on the outside of the machine that will suck in suspended air dust like a air purifier that hangs from the ceiling and help clean the air that’s in the shop .
@@watcherdude1330 No,, this machine is just for collecting dust from the tools via 4 or 6” flex hose or pipe. Solid pipe will always be a better solution because flex pipe reduces air flow.

Did you consider the g800?
For about 1 minute. I couldn’t justify the cost for my small business
