Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dustless Technologies D1836 5-Inch Universal DustieCustomer Review: It gets the job done! Summary: 4 Stars
I bought the Dustie to attach to my 4 1/2" Dewalt angle grinder to grind down some damaged concrete prior to patching with a diamond wheel. I was skeptical because the unit is rather cheaply made and flimsy, but once I got it attached to the grinder and vacuum, I was amazed at how little dust escaped. The air in my garage stayed virtually clear!
I attached it to a Dustless Technologies vacuum with the optional internal bag liner. This vacuum complimented it well because it doesn't loose suction quickly while consuming fine dust.
Another reviewer of the larger size said that his self-destructed when he bumped it against the wall and the wheel caught it. I have no doubt that this would be the outcome if you tried to grind flush to a vertical surface without cutting the front edge of the Dustie out, as allowed for in the instructions. I was careful not to bump the wall and have had no problems with the performance of the device. For a one-time use, this little thing was well worth the price for my good health and the time I would otherwise have spent cleaning every nook and cranny of the garage!
Lastly, I would echo others comments that the Dustie does not include the hose to attach it to your vacuum, as show in the picture. I had to use an adapter I had and a little tape to get it attached tightly. Amazon should definitely correct their web page.
