DeWalt DWH161N

I purchased this for use in the workshop, on the plane, hoping it would prevent mess on small jobs. It is completely useless. There is no suction power to speak of. I'd like to list the pros and cons but there are no pros...View More to be found, unless "It is yellow" counts. A very expensive piece of junk and a real shame that DeWalt thought it good enough. I have never been disappointed by DeWalt gear before, so this is a disappointing first! Oh! There is a pro! It is VERY easy to use!View Less

I purchased this unit after damaging the dust collection bag on my cross-cut saw. I've not had a chance to use on the saw but have used as a vacuum cleaner and attached to an electric planer and it proved massively effective...View More at reducing the airborne dust and swarf - mightily impressed for such a compact unit. Filter appears very durable and battery life is very good.View Less

Another item I seem to be waiting for

Nice quality and quiet BUT the adaptors are useless - nothing to connect with the standard Dewalt hose adaptor. Also the container is very small requiring frequent emptying. To be fair I am disappointed, as I am usually...View More delighted with Dewalt tools.View Less

Worst thing ever bought off Amazon
