Editorial Review:
Designed to fit onto any 30-gallon steel or 32, 40, or 44-gallon plastic garbage can, the Jet 2-Stage 1-Horsepower 650 CFM Dust Collector will filter sawdust down to 2-microns. Excellent for collecting the larger chips which will drop into the garbage can before reaching the impeller, the collector's unique design lets you use a collection can that you already have around the shop rather than purchasing another one. With the collector funneling into a standard garbage can, there is no longer a need to dump the chips and dust from the collection bag into a disposable bag. The collector adapts with any 4-inch hose and is backed by a 1-year warranty.

not a good value, Plugs up awfully easily:
This dust collector was entirely unsatisfactory and has been replaced. It now sits all alone outside and is not being used and nobody interested in buying it used.
1. Very hard to clean the filter.
2. Very fine dust like from a drum or wide belt sander plugs it up almost instantly.
3. lid is heavy and inconvenient and needs a very tall can to keep from sucking stuff from the trash can into the filter.
4. Not sure I ever got even near 650 cfm. Doesn't even work on one machine very... more info
Not completly satisfied:
I have a wood shop in my garage where I do cabinets, wood turning.
The Canister filter clogs very fast, I installed a large 5 micron bag that lasts atleast 10 times longer before I need to clean it. It is loud compared to my 2 bag Jet 650CFM. I see no advanatages to having a 2 stage dust collector (there may be better designs out there). My 2 bag Jet 650CFM works great, it is easy to clean and it is quiet. Install thin wall metal pipe if you can it does make a big difference over the 4" flex hose. I... more info
Good dust collector for a small shop:
I was in search of a good two-stage dust collector that would not break the bank. My requirements were that it be small, portable, and use a canister filter rather than a bag. One of my options was to buy a standard two-bag collector and install a garbage-can separator before it. This didn't meet the filter criteria. Also, it's not very portable because there are two pieces to move, not one. Another option was to buy the larger JET DC-1100CK to get the canister filter. But, that model is not a... more info
2-stage dust collector for Small Shop:
This is a well engineered tool for the function it serves and I am very happy with its performance in my small shop. I just don't undersatnd why Jet decided to mount a relatively heavy motor on such a light plastic base!! Every time I need to move the top, I am all so fearfull that I am going to break the base plate (and I know I will one day!). Another easy improvment would be to add a few dollars to its cost and provide a few extra feet of hose.
