Default DC purchase (Canada)

I am looking at buying a dust collector but I don't know which to buy.
I have narrowed it down to 2 different collectors. My shop space is a
small 9ft by 16ft, and I want to connect it to my tablesaw centre, my
Jet jointer, and my router table. I also wouldn't mind to put a 2 1/2"
point to use as a shop vac. I will be using a cyclone lid from Lee
Valley and blast gates at the main for every machine. The main would be
4" as would the individual machine pipes. As the shop is so small I
find that moving the DC from machine to machine would be more hassle
than its worth.

The two collectors are the Jet JDC-830
(http://www.jetequipment.com/products...A_web%2020.pdf) which
has 830CFM, but a 30 micron bag. The other is from Busy Bee
(http://www.busybeetools.com) Craftex CT029N which has 825CFM and a 1
micron bag.

The Jet is on sale at All In One for $249 and the Craftex for $259.
Which would you buy?

Thanks,

Lars
