Dust Collection System: 1.6-HP Dust Collector Media Reclaimer with 1.8 Gallon Capacity - Universal Fit for Sandblaster Cabinets and Media Blasters

I almost didn't buy this dust collector because of all the conflicting reviews but I'm glad I did. Shipping was a few days faster than advertised which was nice. I mounted this dust collector on a Harbor Freight blast cabinet. The existing hole in the cabinet was an exact fit for the dust collector. I only needed to drill four holes in the cabinet to get it 100% mounted. I think I only spent 10 minutes getting it installed and I was up and running. It works perfectly. I only have a few hours on it so far but it works great. I was using a 5hp Shop Vac for two years and this works better by far. It is easier to reclaim blast material out of the dust collector. A Shop Vac is about the same price as this dust collector. Other reviewers complain about noise. It is loud but not unusually loud for a vacuum/ dust collector used in industry. My 5hp Shop Vac was just as loud as is every other Shop Vac I ever used of that size. I always used hearing protection before and I do need to now with this dust collector. It is loud but that is how this type of equipment is. I sand blast as part of my business and do it many times a week hours at a time. I don't have an issue with this unit. We'll see how long it lasts. I'm happy with it. Contrary to other reviewers I think installation was fast and simple, noise level is typical, and performance for the size and price point is in line with what you get.

It takes time to put together. But blaster and system works great. So far the dust collector works good too.

Product sucks. Parts were bent that weren't supposed to be. Air vent is too small. Parts are missing. Instructions are not clear/complete. No mount for the sand pickup tube, no strap to mount it. No predrilled holes for it on funnel. I will never purchase anything made by Vevor again.

Works great overall! I do recommend ordering smaller blasting heads if you plan to use fine media — about 1/8 inch is ideal and smaller than the four heads included. I also bought the dust removal add-on, and I consider it a must-have upgrade. The built-in light works only intermittently and is far too dim, so I added an external LED work light on top of the viewing window for better visibility. The window seal also didn’t seal well out of the box, but applying painter’s tape around the outside fixed that issue effectively. Both the pickup and air hoses could be better quality. I plan to replace the pickup hose with a stiffer one that won’t crimp, since the kinks slow media flow (though it still works). The air hose connects with a metal clamp on a barbed fitting, which I’ve had to retighten several times—perhaps a sturdier hose would allow a more secure fit. I always disconnect the air supply when leaving the shop, just in case the nozzle hose at the gun it starts leaking again. If your compressor doesn’t already have moisture control/filtration, you’ll definitely want to add it. I picked up a 4-stage desiccant filter for under $100, and it works great. Final Note. I have purchased several products from VEVOR and despite a few issues (like those above) I feel the price and basic quality more than makes up for you for any small issues I have to fix.

I mounted this to the typical HF cabinet. It replaced a ShopVac/dust deputy setup that worked but lost suction fairly quickly. I use medium crushed glass media. 1. Yes, it's loud (wear hearing protection) 2. You'll have to clean the filter (Remove it and knock out the dust) after about every hour of use. 3. It moves a ton of air when the filter is clean and will suck up media. Dump the media out of the bottom before cleaning out the filter so you can put that back in the cabinet without the dust. 4. It's not a miracle cure, it still requires maintenance but when it's working it's a lot better than a regular ShopVac. 5. I'm sure the included filter is letting some very fine dust through it, You can tell when it's running. If you are sensitive to that then just wear a dust mask when in use.

The unit is good for the price. The instructions are horrible. Bad English, type was hard to read, too small. The parts pages with the numbers didn't match the items. The order of assembly was hard to follow. The worst part was when we started assembling the media cabinet, 2 of the side panels edges weren't bent at all, the other two were. We had to bend the edges with crude tools since we don't own a sheetmetal brake. The bend came out horrible, but we made it work. We had to we had come too far in the assembly. We also had trouble with the door hinges, the instructions do not even mention if the hinges go on the inside or outside, again after many try's we made them fit. Overall, for a Chinese part the sand blaster will work fine. We modified the cheap airline fittings with higher quality parts. I suggest take lots of pictures of all the panels before assy, especially the media cabinet.

Works good no complaints

You will need hearing protection, no exceptions. Hands down better than anything you will ever jury rig from a shop vac. Just buy it.

Tutto bene grazie

Tienen que las instrucciones vengan en español.

High Quality. Very heavy. Works great

Fungerar över förväntan 😃

Für meine Vevor 40 Gallonen Kabine ist es in der ursprünglichen Leistung überdimensioniert. Mit einer entsprechenden Spannungsangleichung funktioniert es bestens. Es herrscht somit der ideale Unterdruck zum Absaugen des Nebels in der Kabine und sorgt somit auch für eine freie Sicht im Innenraum. Nach einer sorgfältigen Kontrolle vorab, der perfekten Platzierung des Filters und der Dichtung, hält dieses Absauggerät ALLES im Behälter und bläst es nicht raus. Der Behälter sollte zwischendurch geleert und der Filter ausgeblasen werden. Die Lautstärke hält sich in Grenzen und verringert sich mit der Drehzahlanpassung. Für mich die perfekte Ergänzung. Erst recht für größere Kabinen.
