Shop-Vac Dust Collector, Portable Dust Collector for Woodworking, Fits 5 Gallon Bucket, Easy Disposal of Dust & Debris, Elbow Fittings, 2-1/2" Hose and Metal Filter Included

Works just like advertised. Perfect for my small woodshop.

It works pretty well, and is easy to attach to a Lowe's Blue Bucket. You will likely need longer hoses and an adapter or two, depending on your tools. Stiff and/or short hoses make it difficult to keep the unit upright, as lid+bucket is very light, and it MUST be upright to work. This isn't going to get you through a whole day of sawing, planing and routering, but you shouldn't be looking to this small/portable solution for those needs. The hardest job I've given it so far is planing down some flooring by about 3/16, and I got through about 15 boards before I had to empty the bucket. Your mileage may vary.

Tried it out on arrival. Works as described. Quality passable. Easy to use. Longevity questionable. Need history to recommend product.

I wanted to love this product, but it’s just inferior to like-priced cyclonic separator lids. Dust quickly clogs the exhaust filter at a time when the noise of your planer/jointer/saw/whatever, is drowning out the sound of your vacuum screaming in distress. Bought a Dustopper PRO and although it was harder to install, it wasn’t THAT hard and it works as well as anything that will fit atop a five gallon bucket. Shopvac needs to up their game…

It fits perfectly on a 5-gallon bucket, making dust disposal quick and easy. It’s compact, efficient, and makes cleanup a breeze. A solid addition for anyone looking to keep their workspace clean and safe!

I bought the Shop-Vac brand because it's going on a Shop-Vac. These guys know what they're doing. It works just like it says. Very little sawdust makes it to the actual vac. It saves the Shop-Vac filter it's simple to remove to dump the container - much simpler than dumping the actual Shop-Vac.I'm verty pleased with it and would recommend.

I have a Dewalt DXV09P. It is a very strong vacuum. I installed this dust collector on a standard 5 gallon bucket and the suction of my vac was strong enough to collapse the sides of the bucket. I put the bucket into another bucket to support the wall and this helped. However, when I started to use it the dust collector (the screen that leads out of the bucket) clogged so fast that the suction went to virtually non-existent almost immediately. I had hoped for a easy to dump solution to my sawdust issues but this is not it. I considered making it two buckets tall to allow more vertical drop but hey, at some point is it worth all that?My conclusion, my shop vacuum is not that hard to dump in the first place. The large filter area of the vacuum's canister allows a great deal of debris to clump on the filter before significant loss of suction. It is what the vacuum was designed to do. This 5 gallon bucket thing is not worth your time and certainly not worth your money. I suppose this started as a you tube craze. Don't waste your efforts. I spent enough time fussing with this with little success. My advice, spend a little time dumping the bucket built into your vacuum cleaner. Oh, and if you do try one, save the box and go for a timely return

Doesn't work at all!First, the thing falls over or pulls out of the vacuum if you try a silly thing like moving around. Spent more time putting it back to right than if I just ran the vac without it.I hooked it to my sander and the bucket collapsed. The tool I most wanted it for.Finally the last run with it left me with a very clean shop and a completely clean and empty bucket. Not sure but i thought the point was for it to catch the debris not my vacuum...Don't buy this thing. Its a waste of money and more importantly time. I am sending mine back.
