The Dustopper PRO, Low-Profile Dust Separator for Shop Wet/Dry Vacuums with at least 5HP. Includes High-Flow 90 Degree Sweep Elbows and Connection Hose. Fits Standard 5 Gallon Buckets, Made in USA

Shop Vac Savior - this thing works so well it's crazy how many filters this would have saved. Does need a heavy-duty bucket, I've been using an old oil bucket I had sitting around. Fits any standard five-gallon bucket but Home Depot, Lowes and Harbor Freight buckets just are not sturdy enough (I have not tried the doubling up of buckets method yet though). Great investment for your shop! Currently mine is attached to my CNC machine but easily moved around and used for all my tools. Comes with everything needed to connect to a 2inch shop vac, purchased an adaptor kit for my smaller vacs and I was dust free in minutes, again, while saving my filters! When you empty the bucket, a little blast of air and it is clean again ready for use.

Does what it says and works better than expected. I have tried several different products and styles and was disappointed with most of them. This was a home run! I needed a larger capacity so I modified a trash can and a bucket, this was perfect. No dust entered the vacuum and I had flawless suction all the way to full. Try this before you buy anything else.

Super easy set up! Works like a dream. No leaks. No whistles. Caught everything! After an hour and a half of CnC run time, there was nothing in my craftsman shop vac at all! Save your money and get this instead of those BS catchers that make your shop more “official” than necessary! Need more storage for less frequent dumps? Get a bigger bucket lol.

Works great with my setup. I also bought an attachment hose with accessories for tools. The issues I have are the gasket falls out when detached from bucket. Doesn’t perfectly fit the bucket I’m using. One side won’t stay latched. This doesn’t matter once the shop vac is turned on. I’ve been sanding cabinets in the house. 98% of the dust seems to be going in the bucket. Not seeing a whole lot on my shop vac filter.

I use a $6 thicker bucket with a more comfortable handle from Lowe's. It works great! I use pelleted litter that crumbles into saw dust when wet, for both my dogs (in a large kennel tray covered with plastic half inch by half inch hardware cloth) and my cats (normal litter boxes!). Instead of having to dump them into bags or carry them outside to the trash, I just vacuum it all up! It works on cat poop as well, not getting stuck, though I only use it on the saw dust where my dogs pee. Saves me money on pee pads for the dogs to use the pellets! I use three buckets: litter boxes in one, and one bucket for each kennel tray. Super simple to clean up after everyone, and cheaper than regular kitty litter or pads. So worth it to get this dust separator and be able to easily empty the mess, without worrying about the vacuum filter or yuckies inside my vacuum. I even tested it and sucked up way more than I should have (both kennel trays of saw dust) and the bucket was very full but with very little saw dust going into the actual vacuum! When the bucket was less full, like maybe three quarters, there was not a speck in the vacuum at all

Simple but works like a charm. Greatly reduced need to clean vacuum filter

Works great. Very little dust in vacuum, all ends up in the 5 gallon bucket.

While I agree with some other reviews, having additional clamps to seal this to a bucket would be good, for the price point on this it’s operating as expected. I haven’t yet had any issues at all with loss of suction or a bad seal.

Me facilita la limpieza de la aspiradora ya que casi todo lo aspiro queda en bote con este producto

nice thank you

I purchased the Duststopper PRO after my large 2hp dust collector motor decided to die on me. I figured I could get away with using a larger shop vacuum for a while so long as I could keep the filter from getting clogged. I have tried some other separator filters before and they were just OK, but the Dustopper is on a completely different level. I gave my vacuum a thorough cleaning to make sure the filters were spotless before connecting this to it. I can say that after a month of woodworking vacuuming all sorts of fine and coarse dust from cutting and sanding I have barely a trace of anything on the filters in my vacuum... everything went into the 5 gallon pail. As a result I am able to maintain excellent suction and only need to dump the pail. This is a huge bonus as I always found that I would loose suction quickly when sanding. I now plan to put this on a small rolling stand with my vacuum and attach it to a larger bucket. One thing. that I appreciate with this unit VS something like a dust deputy is that it is much lower profile, and there fore much less prone to tip over. I am thrilled with the way this thing works!

For many years I have been a regular reader of the American magazine Fine Woodworking, I particularly enjoy their annual Tools & Shops issue. In this year’s issue I saw an article on the Dustopper Pro and wanted to buy one. I was very pleased to find that I could purchase a Dustopper Pro from the USA via Amazon Prime without having to pay delivery charges. It arrived quickly and in very sturdy packaging. It is very well made and the instructions for using it were very clear and easy to understand. My only problem was finding a 5 US gallon bucket in the UK! Many 5 gallon buckets on sale here 25 litre buckets and the Dustopper Pro does not fit them. Then I discovered that Screwfix sell a Marshalltown 5 gallon bucket, made in the USA, which is a perfect fit for the Dustopper Pro. I am very happy with my purchase as emptying the bucket is so much easier than emptying either of my two workshop vacuum cleaners.

Perfekt!
