Dust extractor
Great product, great price. Lightweight, compact, and powerful. I would recommend this to anyone who has to eliminate dust while working.

Waste of money and time
Huge waste of money, product constantly clogs and requires user to stop working constantly. Sucks up dust for about 5 minutes and then creates a huge mess. Doesn’t come with an adapter to hook up a dewalt sander either. I wish I would’ve sent this back after I used the first time and got a refund. Learn from my mistake, avoid this product.

Works pefect with dewalt orbital sander
Had to order quick connector adapter. The adapter was too big for vac hose. So i used an old shop vac attachment cut extra part off. Fit snugg in adatoer then hose fits snug in cut peice.

Not AirLock compatible but otherwise performs as promised
The media could not be loaded. First things first, this thing works like they say it does. Throw a battery on it, press the button, and it proceeds to suckin. The suction seemed a little light so I 3D printed an adapter to fit the hose to an air speed meter and the results calculate out to 23 CFM vs the 19 CFM listed in the manual. So, it sucks more than they say it does, but it still feels a little light on the suction. No points subtracted for doing what it promised.Sound levels measured at 1m read at 79dB(A) vs 82.5 in the manual. This certainly isn't quiet but it's quieter than the tools I'm running with it so I'm wearing hearing protection anyway. Another good showing for performing better than the spec in the manual.The hose fitting provided is a 32mm OD hose with no provision for use with the "AirLock"-style connector found on nearly all new DeWalt tools. As others have noted, despite a wide range of vacuum hose fittings available from DeWalt, none of them appear to be suitable for making this dust collector work with the majority of the DeWalt tool range. In response to this, I went and designed a 3D printed adapter for this hose to lock onto AirLock connectors which is demonstrated in the attached video. If you have a 3D printer you can download that and print yourself up a free solution that makes this collector finally suitable for use with most DeWalt tools.

Great little vacuum!
The media could not be loaded. Purpose built unit. Does exactly what it was built for. Great not having to carry around a power cord. Great for working up high, or on ladders. Great for punch list items. Quick clean up. Would highly recommend!!415 Builders, California

Sent back
Worked. Hit turkey with truck, shattered windshield. Vacuum had power enough to suck up shattered glass. Also used for drywall dust. Kept dust inside through hep filter. Issue being size of tool itself holding debris. Only small to very small jobs.

Good only for small tasks
Product works but chamber fills quickly and constantly needs to be emptied. Kind of pricey for a small vacuum. I’d rather just use a big wet/dry vac that’s way more feasible for the work I do. Used the heap vacuum only 3x before I gave up on it.
