Oneida Air SystemsDust Collector & Cyclone Separator Kit w/ Clear Bucket, 2.5 Deluxe 5-Gal - Portable Cyclone Machine for Wet and Dry Shop Vacuums

The Dust Deputy is great. I bought it about 2 weeks ago and so far it works perfectly. For tools that create lots of sawdust like a table saw or wood planer, this is a great setup to use. After running the planer for about 30 minutes, the bucket filled up. I can’t imagine replacing the shop vac bag every 30 minutes. Of course you can use a vacuum filter and just keep emptying the vacuum drum, but then your filter will be clogged in no time. I actually waited too long to empty the dust deputy bucket the first time and the excess sawdust fell into the shop vac drum. So I just emptied the bucket, cleaned the vac drum, and made sure the filter was still clean. It’s probably a good idea to empty the bucket when it’s about half or 2/3 full.The deputy allows you to run the vacuum at optimal performance while not having to change a bag or a filter. At some point you’ll still need to change the filter because it will catch small particles over time, but I imagine that it will be a while before I need to do that. Installation was pretty easy. My shop vac drum is metal, but drilling 2 holes into the side wall was very easy.I highly recommend this product if you do a fair amount of woodworking. Although, I feel that it is priced too high. I think a more reasonable price range would be $70-75. Overall, it is a great investment.

I'm a huge DIY type of guy and when I saw the price on most of these systems, I was absolutely not going to do it. Instead, I bought a couple of buckets and some plumbing parts and try to make my own following YouTube advice that they seem to have good success with. At the end of the day, I wasted all that time effort and money and I should've just bought this product. Absolutely works flawlessly and helps keep my shop vac (originally) and now dust collector as clean as a whistle. Could not be happier and would absolutely recommend to everyone. I love the design and the increased suction power because it keeps my filters clean. The product seems to be made durably. If I had one knock is that the maneuverability isn't great if you're attaching it to a shop vac but if you're using it with a dust collector, you will absolutely have no issues

This works as advertised and keeps the vacuum helps filter clean. I wish it had a larger chips and dust collection bin, but the bin itself is clear so you can see the dust building up so you know when it needs dumping. My only gripe is that the cyclone unit is held onto the bin with only two flimsy clips when I think it needs four to enable a better seal between the cyclone and the bin. Otherwise, it’s a good unit and I recommend it.

This is a great product. It works as claimed, collecting most of the dust before it gets to the vacuum filter. Ideal for a thickness planer, but works equally as well with saws and even as an intermediary if you're using your shop vac to collect dust from sanding drywall compound. Highly recommended.

The Oneida Dust Deputy Low-Pro is exactly what I wanted/needed for my small hobby woodworking shop (garage). Nice compact size and will work well for cleaning up the sawdust and dirt in the shop without filling my shopvac and its filter.I was slightly surprised with the amount of fiddly installation stuff that was required. Would have thought that they would have installed the rubber gasket on the lid at the factory, as well as the anti-static protection strip. Not a big deal, but for the price it seemed they would have performed that work.

WOOOOOW this thin sucks, I mean the vacuum does not lose any sucking power. Grinding concrete the worst finest dust imaginable cloggs filter in 15 min and the filter bags from Rigid explode they are crap. Bought some china made bags that are amazing but they also eventually fail after half bag is full, no suction power. the grinder creates so much dust that the vacuum can't keep up. dust everywhere, it's a mess. With this cyclone machine, no more mess. Yes the sticky tape is a joke to attach the wheels 5 min, and it's gone. But I mounted the wheel brackets with screws as suggested and it's perfect. Don't suck anything without this device.
