Gave it away
Delta AP300 Shopmaster 3/4 Horsepower 680 CFM Horizantal Bag Dust Collector, 120/240-Volt 1 Phase

I gave it away. It is a weak product that does not take in much dust. Bag is a pain to empty. If you are going to get a dust collector, don't expect too much from what you buy unless you get something over $1000.

Good Dust Collector But.....
This device works well as a dust collector but not a chip collector. I have tried to use it with a thickness planer but the chips clog on the intake opening cross bar. It works with my router dust vent okay. I assume it work okay with an sanding table. Don't expect too much from this.

Great dust collector for its size & cost.
I bought this collector to fit under my 8ft x 8ft work table in the center of my shop which the tall vertical versions won't do. It's networked to a Delta table saw and a Hitachi P12RA planar/joiner. Adding a remote start (one remote for each machine) makes it a real joy to use.

A previous reviewer mentioned that large chips coming off a shaper table will clog it. I'll add that chips coming from a planer will too. However, that's easily remedied by cutting (with snippers) the aluminum inlet guard off (it's a simple cross across the inlet). That removes any restriction and any chance of clogging. Since you can only put your fingers into the collector by removing the hose and stupidly inserting your finger into a spinning impeller (not one of the first 10 million things I plan on doing in life), I don't consider this to be a safety hazard.

I'll be buying at least one more for a router table and perhaps a drill press/bandsaw on the perimeter of the shop.

Buy it and enjoy the cleaner shop.

excellent seller and product
Item as described and received in a timely manner... an excellent buying experience!

My 2Cents review of the delta AP300
When it arrived, I had to rewire it for 240V which obviously was not auto switch configured. Nevermind that I blew 2 fuses while trying to get it work. Worst came the unbearable rattling noise while the motor was spinning. For a while I thought I had a defective unit. The base plate also came dented, I don't know whether is it Amazon or their courier handlers are at fault. Obviously, the term FRAGILE was not clearly understood. Next I had to disassemble the impeller housing and to my surprise the nut securing the impeller was loose (the damn cause of the sickening rattling noise) What kind of factory QC was there? But after having fixed all that, the unit was up and running and smoothly and did its job well enough!

4 stars for meeting job requirements.
2 stars for the quality. I guess not all unit have such problems.

Overall: 4 stars!
