Review: I like using this to clean up the shop or to hook up to my router while using it. The auto on off feature is a big plus for me because I hate having the vacuum on more than it needs to be even though the noise isn't bad. I have not used it while using a dado set on a table saw or with a joiner yet so I don't know how it would perform. My guess is that it would be a bit underpowered. However, with my router and even my hand planer it does well.
Pros: on board storage, adequate power to be used with most tools, good filters, auto on/off switch for using directly with tools, quiet noise level
Cons: hose quality could be better,
Good for its intended use

Review: I have this hooked up to my sanders almost primarily and it never gives me any grief. It moves around nicely on its wheels throughout the shop, it doesn't quite \"follow\" me effortlessly but it is easy. It is nice to have it turn on when I turn on my sander, and turn off a few seconds after.
Pros: very functionally sound sander
Cons: small hose cant handle large chips
