Not completely satisfied:

I use this with a 3/4 HP Porter Cable AP300 Dust Collector.
That model of dust collector is rated at 500 CFM, which is used
with a trash can lid collector.
Most of the time, I work with red oak, white oak, and occasionally

Surprisingly poor:

I'm surprised that so many reviewers think this is a good accessory. It's absolutely necessary, and every Delta planer owner needs one.... but it's a poor design. Boards hit it on the outfeed.

Must-Have Accessory for the Planer:

Don't even think about buying the planer without the dust collector attachment! Without it you will have chips all over the floor and fine dust in the air.

You can't fold up the outfeed table with the attachment in place, but that's no big deal.

Delta 50-446 Dust Collection attachment:

Pretty straight forward. It works. Not sure if you can realy go wrong on this one if you have the planner if fits, it works.
