I was pleasantly surprised at how well this small inexpensive sander performed - I had my doubts when I purchased it. I do drywall sanding occasionally and small wall repairs often. It was $950.00 cheaper than the Festool pro sander with vac which would probably be more for someone who sands all day everyday.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I had no problem hooking this up to my Rigid dryvac using the included hose adapters. While the switch to control the vacuum pressure seemed cheaply applied, it worked. I was able to use the drywall screen to sand certain areas of the room without a mask on. It was great not having to deal with a huge, dusty mess.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This sanders works as advertised. Sucks up about 95% of the drywall dust. Be sure to get a fine dust filter or hepa filter for your shop vac. Better yet a bag to collect the drywall dust if you can find one that fits your vac. I would highly recommend this sanding system to keep your work area very clean while sanding.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We used this in a sheetrock project and it worked beautifully, easy to use, no dust and with the aid of an adaptor (that came with our shop vac) - it hooked right up to our shop vac and collected all the debris right into the shop vac - no fine dust all over the house!! Would highly recommend!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Images for this Review

We just bought/moved into a foreclosure during the holidays. The previous owner was in the middle of doing renovations. He sure loved to slapping compound all over the walls, but didn't care so much for laying it on thin or sanding it down at all.
I had a hefty sanding task ahead of me and knew it would be a nightmare. I tried a powered orbital sander and it left an awful mess. Not to mention the wife wasn't too happy with dust all over. Manual sanding was still going to be dusty so I searched for a solution and found this.
I originally say another brand at the other chain, but it's reviews were bad. This one had good reviews so I went for it. It's great. It sucks up nearly all the dust. I only have to worry about the film that's left on the wall. That's far much better than piles on the floor for the cats to track around. Attached to my 6.5 HP blower/vac, this thing simply works. It clings to the wall all on its own!
I'm enjoying sanding much more now...almost too much..almost. At least I'm getting my honey-do list trimmed down. Okay, who am I kidding, I'm making room on the list for other things.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This product is great for walls, but not so great for ceilings. I'm glad I purchased this, but I still had to use my other sander...and does not fit all vacuums, good thing I have three.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Worked great. I didn't wear a mask while sanding. I didn't even have to wipe my eye glasses after sanding. The vacuum collected all of the drywall dust.

This sander worked great. Absolutely dust free sanding! The only downside was I had to purchase several filters for my shop vac., but that just meant the sander was working as it should. I didn’t have to tape off the room or put down drop cloths for dust control. The sander captured literally all of the dust. Best purchase I’ve made in a long time.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I just did my first drywall project and used this. There was only minimal dust. I had a lot of dust when I used a sanding sponge to get some tight spots this sander would not fit into, but had very little dust with this attached to my shop vac. I will definitley use it on my next drywall project.
Yes, I recommend this product.

When this product arrived, the corners were bowed in and the whole sanding surface was a little cupped. Looks like its a manufacturing defect. I was bale st square everything up easily enough by taking it to the belt sander and now it works like a champ. While it doesn't get all the dust, it does do well enought to be a good investment. I would estimate it collects about 95% of it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Sander attachment works excellent. The vacuum is strong enoough to hold the sander to the wall. Very little of what you sand escapes.The one problem I had was not with the sander but with the vacuum. Even with a bag inside, dust still escaped through the exhaust. I remidied this by attaching another bag to the exhaust using a reducer coupling inserted in the exhaust port.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This sander performed above expectations. It cleared the air, so to speak, in a small stairwell in which I replaced damaged dry wall.

Purchased this dustless sander after trying another brand that didn't work very well. Read postive reviews online and thought I would give it a shot. I am remodeling a third floor (2 rooms 300 sf) and fixed two walls in the mother-in-laws house.
The sander was great. Removed about 90 to 95% of the typical drywall dust. Way above my expectations (and the mother-in-laws). I had it connected to a large model shop vac with a high quality air filter designed for drywall dust.
Definately would recommend for the d.i.y.'rs looking to keep dust way down.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I used this vacuum sander in my home and I had no dust in the air or on the floor. It is very easy to use and the hose provided along with my vacuum hose made it long enough to reach the walls and a 9' high ceiling. You must however use a high efficiency filter bag inside your shop vac the regular shop vac filter will clog too fast but with the special filter bags you can sand for hours.
Yes, I recommend this product.

,PostedSeptember 27, 2011

Overall the product works well enough. The little slide valve to adjust the amount of vacuum bleed off keep moving on its own. The hose is not long enough to get very far away from the vacuum cleaner so when doing the ceiling it becomes difficult as the hose "pulls" on the person doing the sanding This make ones arms prematurely tired from the extra encumbrance of a short and heavy hose.
