I've used this for 2-1/2 years now, and really love it. It's great for lead dust and plaster dust -- a necessity in this old house -- and when it's not doing that, it can be used as a dust extractor in the shop.Positives: Very effective self-cleaning HEPA filter, rated for lead dust extraction. The self cleaning is just great with plaster dust, I haven't had a clog yet. It's light weight and easy to carry despite its bulk. Suction isn't the highest because of the HEPA filter -- you're going to get more from a standard shop vac, but this has a different purpose, no need for a cyclonic extractor or such when you use it for dust extraction. If you just want a shop vac, get a shop vac! The automatic run feature works well. And it's much less expensive than comparable units, or at least it was when I bought it.Negatives: Don't be fooled by the bargain price, the tool set is ridiculously expensive. It's still a bargain, but less so. DeWalt sells a wide range of hose adapters, which is a plus, but doesn't make it easy to figure out which ones you need -- why can't the industry standardize this stuff? It's really noisy, with a high pitched squeal -- use ear plugs, not strictly necessary but more comfortable. Stowing the hose -- it wraps around the unit and is secured by elastic -- is a bit of a bear, and I end up taking it off and carrying it separately. The hose accessories (but not the hose and the adapter that goes on it) are friction fit and tend to fall apart while you're using them.These quibbles aside, it does exactly what it should, and for that reason and its bargain price, I'm giving it five stars. A smarter person than I will find the right kind of adapter and use conventional shop vac accessories rather than buying their overpriced wand and brush kit.

I'm very happy this this unit on the whole. I was worried because several of the reviews on here mentioned that the suction was not as good as they were expecting. Personally, I find that the suction is just as good, or even better, than the comparable sized shop vacs. I think that this should be the case, though, when you are buying a HEPA vac to help ensure that you are getting as much dust as possible. The self cleaning filter mechanism works well, though it leads to a very brief (less than a second) loss of suction when it 'thumps' the filter. The Power Tool Actuation feature also works great, allowing you to connect a power tool (such as a sander) and having the vacuum automatically turn on when you turn on the power tool. I do wish that this vacuum came with some attachments, and not just the adapter for attachments, which is included. I actually have not been able to easily find DeWalt vacuum attachments for this model, though the adapter looks like it would fit standard vacuum accessories (1 1/4"?) When you compare the price of this HEPA vs other HEPA vacuums with the same features though, this is still a great deal.

Everything about it is 5 stars. The downside that we wish was a little better is the hose, just feels a little cheap compared to how well it works and how much you pay for it. If the hose that comes with it were better quality Id pay another 50$ no questions askedThe plug in that turns it on as needed works great after some pretty heavy use with a belt sander for a few months. It catches about 85% of debris from our planer which is pretty impressive. It catches 99% with the drywall sander, itll miss a bit when using 80 or 100 grit at full speed. 100% with the orbital, on uneven surfaces about 80%. great suction that stays perfect until 75% full.

Product is fine….. it’s the delivery, I ordered (4) Dewalt shop vacs and it was pouring down rain. They left all four boxes on the corner of my garage instead of walking about 20’ and putting them under my covered front porch. So pissed

I was a little bit afraid reading the reviews before purchasing this, but ultimately, I am glad I did.I currently am using this vacuum with a Dust Deputy on an Eagle 20 gallon drum. Those who say the suction power isn't good enough, I am not sure what is wrong with theirs, but the vacuum has enough suction to make the lid of my drum cave in when using the dust deputy. Very happy with the suction as well as the tool plugin auto on/off feature. It's nice and small, and matches my yellow tools.My only gripe with this vacuum is the nonstandard hose connections. I tried to attach a standard hose so that I could connect it to my dust deputy, but the outer threads prevent me from getting a hose clamp on it to attach on the vacuum end. I ended up finding the hose adapter at this part number: N409729 and will have to mess around with it to make my own custom hose connection.

I use this in my home foot care business. I hooked up the loc-line articulating hose component to the shop vac hose. The HEPA filter is perfect for picking up the fine dust particles in foot care. It’s pretty loud but it does the job with keeping my studio dust free. Highly recommend.

I can use my Dewalt concrete grinder/finisher with this vac indoors! the quick connect works with all my tools and the none Dewalt tools I have usually work with the adapter that comes with this vac, the shudder feature (Dewalt calls it something, cant remember) for auto cleaning the filters is great, I can use this vac for hours and not have to open it up and clean the filters.

Pros: The vacuum itself works excellent for fine dust like drywall and grinding concrete . It will fill the bucket before losing much suction. Unlike regular shop vacs that clog the filter almost immediately. It's also smaller than the bigger 10 gallon unit making it easier to transport and store.Cons: It's loud . Very loud. Has a high pitched whine to it , much louder than my Ridgid vacs . It also has a 15 amp motor , which is good, but it makes the auto start feature useless because you will blow breakers constantly having 2 machines plugged into the same outlet. Also the vac stays on for 15 secs after you stop whatever tool you're using leaving the vacuum whaling away and giving you a headache. This is especially annoying when using a miter saw for making quick 2 sec cuts, the vacuum stays on too long . The hose is also very narrow inside diameter , almost less than 1 inch . Larger chips and debris clog it easily .Lastly the hose attachments. Be prepared to spend an extra $40 to $70 buying adapters to fit the wands and tools you have that aren't DeWalt's proprietary twist lock fitting.4 stars because the vacuum works well if you don't blow breakers and have the right connectors.
