From what Ive seen so far with my Bosch/Starmix, Id have no problems recommending the Metabo/Starmix. I have almost no doubt that the Metabo ASR35 and the Starmix iPulse ARDL 1435 are one in the same for the above reasons. This is also a Starmix, however is is based on the model Starmix ARD 1425, the specs are the same, but it lacks the suction control knob. Dont bother calling Canadian Metabo, from what I was told while I was trying to get quotes, they sound less than on the ball.īear in mind that there is/was an older Metabo vac, the model ASR2025. A call to US Metabo would likely confirm. Ive watched videos of both the Ipluse starmix and the Metabo ASR35 and they both appear to function in the exact same way. electromagnetic pulse filter cleaning - cleans the filters during work break" Notice the difference in text for the other vacs : Both look exactly the same (there are differences between the ipluse and the rest of the line, look at the cord hook on both the iPulse and the ASR35) and none of the other starmix vacs besides the ipluse 1435 offer the "Permanent Clean" system. electromagnetic pulse filter cleaning with " Permanent Clean" - cleans the filters permanently during the vacuuming process - without interruption of the intake flow!īoth the Starmix and the Metabo are 35l capacity. Starmix describes this feature in their literature as:Īut. AutoClean: Saving in cost and time by means of automatic filter cleaning in continuous use".For extraction at the power tool in continuous mode on construction sites and in the workshop.While Metabo does not use the title "Permanent Clean" in their advertising (likely due to trademark) they do make note of continuous cleaning: The "Permanent Clean" system cycles the filter cleaning left filter to right filter while the vac is in operation. This differs from the older style Starmix, like my Bosch in that the self clean only runs when the vac is turned off or put into self clean mode. The pulse function on the Metabo is the same "Permanent Clean" as the Starmix 1435 in that it continuously operates while the vac is in operation. The Metabo ASR35 should be exactly the same as the Starmix iPulse ARDL 1435 EWS. Looked a little farther and to get the newest version you are looking at $1595 on for a Rokamat H35 which is the newest version of the Starmix, O well maybe one day it will come down in price.Thats a H class vacuum. It clearly alternates between right and left filters during cleaning like the iPulse vacs do. I should add that Metabo does NOT list their units as being iPulse, but I gathered that info from watching videos of the Metabo in action. The OEM for both vacs is Starmix, and they both have the same CFM vacuum flow. Easier cleanup is also a bonus for the Metabo. The Bosch, uses the older technology, continuous running shaker, with its ongoing "Thump-Thump-Thump" whereas the Metabo uses the new system and only thumps when necessary. When it comes right down to it, the only difference between the Bosch and the Metabo is the filter shaker system. Because Starmix themselves do not sell in North America, the only way to get one of their vacs is to buy a rebrand from the various European tool manufactures, either Metabo, Mafell or Bosch. Starmix refers to this as the ipulse system. It differs from the above model Starmix 1450 in that it has the new body design (easier to clean), has a filter monitor, is M class, and perhaps most importantly it has the new version of the filter shaker system which monitors the filter efficiency and only thumps the filters when necessary. The Metabo Im after, the Model ASR35, is also a Starmix, however it is based on Starmix model. This same model is sold as a Mafell (and maybe even a Metabo in some markets as well) Steve, Between the Bosch Airsweep 3931A-PB and the Starmix ISC ARD-1450 EWS it is based on, their is basically no real difference. Id love to find one of the Systainer adapters that fit these Starmix vacs somewhere here in NA. Ill take a couple pics and post up some preliminary results. I got some drywall to do in the next few days. Nozzle 1.5" hose and the 35mm factory Bosch one. I wish I had an anemometer to see if there is any difference in airflow between the Mr. How accurate it is, I dont know, but it'll be an interesting test. Theyre both supposed to be about the same size, but the nozzle on the bosch hose seems to create a higher pitched squeal with the rushing air, likely due to it being a smaller orifice. One thing I noticed is a SIGNIFICANT difference in sound level between the factory Bosch hose and the aftermarket (LV sourced) Mr. The included handle, cord, hose and wand storage is really great and makes for a nice compact package. Build quality of the OEM Starmix is superb.
I havent had a chance to use it enough to form a good opinion, but so far, its love! It really sucks, lol.
