WENDC1300 1,300 CFM 14-Amp 5-Micron Woodworking Dust Collector with 50-Gallon Collection Bag and Mobile Base , Black

Great dust collector. I am using it for a few small tools as well as the Wen jointer and Wen planer. According to the instructions, many bolts get an M8 nut, but the holes in the base are threaded. I suspect they started putting threads in the base and did not update the instructions. I counted my hardware before assembly and before I noticed the base was threaded so I called Wen - they sent me new hardware with no issues. I had exactly enough bolts and washers when I finished assembly, so I further supports the idea that the instructions were just the older version.

I have used this dust collector for two months. Assembly: no problem, sort screws and you will know where they go. I did change the wheels but make sure to get locking wheels. This unit has a powerful fan with great suction. I produce 25 - 30 gallons of sawdust every two weeks so I feel confident in saying this will keep up with the more expensive models. The wiring just needs to be on a different circuit than the power tool you are using and you will have no problems. Best Dust Collector for the buck.

I only run one machine at a time, but with hose gates it works very wellPlease note that it will gather saw dust as the tool runs, but will not vacuum up existing saw dust inside the toolI don't use it as a shop vac replacement to protect the impeller blades from things that end up on my floor (screws etc.)be careful on the large hose that runs from the blower to the collection bag. It is easily puncturedsmall enough to fit in between tools so it does not take up lots of spaceon/off switch could be more reachable, but it is still easy to usenice to be able to run on 120 v, put it on a different circuit that the other 120 v tools so I've never had an issue

I wanted to upgrade my dust collection from a shop vac. After much research I felt this was the best buy for the money. I was correct. This is awesome. I've very pleased with the value for the dollars spent.

Surprised at how well this thing work! Excellent investment.

Works well and is quiet for a dust collector

Buyers whom are looking to install a 6" primary duct system should know this dust collector has a 5" primary with two 4" in a "Y" configuration. It is not a 6" primary. You will require a 5 to 6 inch adapter of sorts if that is your plan.Just FYI...

Lovely
