A small footprint and big power - that's what you get with this Delta dust collector. It takes up so little room because its volume is vertical, not horizontal. Standing 83 inches tall, it takes up just about 4-1/2 square feet of floorspace, but its 3,450 rpm motor moves a maximum of 1,200 cubic feet of air per minute.

The small footprint is valuable in the home workshop, where space is often at a premium, but it's beneficial, too, because this machine is on rugged casters, and its size lets you move it wherever you need it in your shop, from the jointer to the planer to the saw to the sander. If you're fortunate enough to have a ducting system and blast gates in place, this machine stows easily in a corner and does all the work from there. It's rated at 88 decibels, but it's quite a bit more tolerable than a shop vacuum, we think.

Assembly is minimal; expect about 45 minutes and a little frustration if you're going it alone. The only tricky part, as with any dust collector assembly, is mounting the plastic collection bag. There are two different rings to choose from; use what works for you. The upper bag filters down to 1 micron, which is a millionth of a meter, keeping the air and your lungs clear of dangerous contaminants. The collection bag is made of tough, 6-mil clear plastic, and we've really come around on the plastic bags from not liking them to, well, thinking they're a good idea. Exhaust goes through the filter bag, not the collection bag, so no air (or debris) escapes, and you can easily see when the bag needs emptying without waiting for performance to falter.

There's a nice option for installation, too, that we haven't seen on other models: You can install the blower housing with the outlet ports facing up or down, depending on your ducting system and shop needs. And yes, you can use both ports at once - it's that powerful.

We think this is a great investment for the home workshop or small professional shop, and your lungs are definitely worth it.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Works great, but needs 20 amp circuit:

Powerful dust collector, 1 micron bag is great. Unit is pretty tall, barely fits in my 7' tall basement shop. Would not start up on 15 amp circuit, kept kicking the breaker out, even when no other equipment was running. Runs great on 20 amp circuit though, together with other 1 hp or 2 hp equipment.

Good dust collector for the price:

I just got mine last night. It arrived with plenty of dents in it from shipping but Amazon offered me a discount to keep it since it still worked.
It was easy to put together in spite of the manual. The directions tell you all you need is a 12m wrench and then the first step says to use a 'thin' 14m wrench ?? And they aren't kidding about the thin part. The wrench is needed to tighten the casters and there isn't enough room for a standard wrench to fit. I ended up using needle nose pliers; they were... more info

Great for a small shop:

This is my first dust collector so I don't have much to compare it to. However we had some Shopfox units in the shop I used to work in and this one outperforms those. The 1 micron bag on the top is a real plus. I don't see any dust particles in the air at all, even when I shake the top bag to dislodge the material that has collected on the inside of it. I love the convenience of the plastic bags. Once I got the hang of using the friction fit ring that system has worked great. I have 20' of hose connected to... more info

Great Dust Collector w/shipping damage:

I don't know how much you can say about a dust collector as long as it does it's job. This unit does it's job very well. It is so much nicer than using my wet/dry vac for dust collection. You will not regret getting this unit. It is a great value.
The unit had some small damage when it arrived. One of the posts were bent on the stand, I straightened it out and I used a little bit of persuasion to get it together. It also had a small dent on the motor housing.
The unit ships in the original box and... more info
