Watching the video for the installation was a big help while installing this dust collector. After installing it, I tried it out and with my Rigid vac hooked up to it and I was able to cut the wood with almost no sawdust left around the saw. I am very happy so with the dust collector so far.

So I wish I can go back and change my last review on this product. I or the wrong part that’s the reason why I didn’t fit, but I sent it back. Got a refund and ordered the one that fit putting it on took me all of five minutes, not even. Cleaned up my saw cut a piece of 2 x 4 and oh my God what a difference this product is amazing. I figured it would be from the design because the catches lower. The only thing I would do if it’s even possible is to put threadedmetal inserts where you screw everything in. So you don’t strip out the plastic just snug everything up go overpower it and you will love the difference. A++++++++++++++ product!!!!
jim A.
a lot of improvements since the first model. I like that the skirt is screwed on. It seems like it will allow a deeper cut.
Not perfect dust capture but better than anything else I have tried.
Matt M.
Works better than expected and very easy install
Tim H.
Works fantastic. Looks fantastic. Thanks!
Jan D.
Fits and works well
john r.
The first time I used it, the chute broke. Already on my replacement. Not impressed so far
Dan B.
Ez install works great
Richard M.
I've used your dust collection for a few years now, and I love it. A knot flew out and smashed into the dust collector, destroying the attachment to my miter saw.
You don't realize how much sawdust there is until you break the dust collection you provide!! Thank you for having the insight to engineer your miter saw dust collection devices!!!!
Randall M.
Did not fit my saw tried to get it returned can I get anyone to reply to my email had to end up disputing it with the merchant services

Such a massive improvement to my miter dust collection, words can't describe how happy this makes my wife! Don't get me wrong, no miter saw will be 100% dust free but if you want a SIGNIFICANT improvement just buy it. It's so great I bought it twice... yes twice... for the same saw. I got a nasty kickback that broke my first one. I reached out to customer service and got a response in minutes! I sent in pictures of the damage, it didn't take long to realize it was beyond a replacement part or two. I quickly ordered another one (since there's no way my wife would let me use the miter without dust collection mine you) in the hopes of getting it fast so I could get back to my project. It was delivered in 2 days!!! Also they gave me a little discount as well!
Talk about small businesses treating customers well. I could not be more pleased with both the product and customer service, in fact if it happened again I'd order a 3rd without hesitation.

This is a really top accessory greatly enhancing the Bosch dust extraction. Australian buyers – hassle free and fits perfectly straight out of the box for our model saw GCM12GDL (305mm)
Arrived in a well-sealed box robust enough to handle international freight movements. Upon opening it was a delight to see the packaging was truly protective to prevent shipping rash. A delight in itself and showed me Shop Nation like, respect and back this product. They are obviously proud of it and I’m glad they are because that means I’m getting a quality product. Bosch should’ve done it this way. Well made with quality materials and fitted EXACTLY like the instructional video said it would. And, it does as they claim! Reduced my sawdust expulsion by at least 80%. I wish everything I purchased was this well made. Because of this purchase and my happiness with this company I’m going to look hard to see if my shed needs anymore of their products now…….. Oh nearly forgot to mention their communication is second to none! First class! Thank you Shop Nation !
Jason
The product works good. The only probelm is a small piece of wood flew up amd cracked the end off of it when making a cut. Not as durable as I would expect.
James B.
Using my dewalt or festool dust extraction this set up catches 90% + of everything. It’s beyond amazing!!!!!
Martin B.
does not work for high work pieces, I am very disapointed
Gordon L.
Easy to install and is a major enhancement to dust collection.
gift
Love it! Works as described
Gregory
Works great. Thanx
Jonathan G.
Really well made and nice design.
I wish there was a way to have the coupling point out to the side without just flopping around. Not a huge deal though.
And as someone with a little OCD, I wish that coupler was the Bosch color like the picture shows. Mine is black.
But, obviously, that has nothing to do with the performance which is great.
Kareem A.
The hose provided is a bit short and causes tension when the saw is fully extended. Also the rubber flap makes a big gap when pressed up against the wood.
Paulash M.
Love this. Thanks for the loyalty discount - very kind of you.
James C.
Fit as expected and greatly reduced dust
Douglas D.
Works well but package was missing rubber scoop. Fortunately we had one from a previous order of the same device.
Richard C.
improved dust collection 90%
Sean C.
Works great! Thank You!
Gary B.
Perfect fit and a sipper easy install.
Fenton D H.
IT IS A major improvement over the original that came with the miter saw. It doesn't get 100% but that is understandable given the nature of a miter saw. It was definitely worth the money and I am very grateful to have it. I love the fact it hooks right up to my festool vacuum.
I recommend you buy it!
Todd H.
Neither one of the end "adapters" work with my Hercules dust extractor. Customer Service is about as helpful as t!ts on a warthog. They just keep referring me to videos. NOT ONCE did they offer to make something to fit my dust extractor. I've had Etsy makers do this for my tools without hesitation, but they can't? What a terrible company. I won't recommend them to anyone and will in fact, discourage anyone from buying their garbage.
Lawrence S.
The dust collection unit works really well and was very straight forward to install. I would highly recommend this unit for anyone that wants better dust collection for their miter saw.
Kari k.
Works great a lot of suction leaves a little dust behind cabinet only when I cut mdf
I have dust stopper and shop vac hooked up to vacuum switch highly recommend this product customer service was amazing when I had a problem or question Travis is a smart engineer to produce this product
Thanks again Kari.
~Sy M.
Easy to order ,easy to fit ,instructions very simple to follow ,pleasure to finally get an aftermarket bit that does exactly what it claimed to do
scott g.
fast shipping, good directions and install video, works 100 percent better than what 1 had
Chris M.
Installation was easy, picks up at least 90% of my sawdust
Dorion B.
Pretty good zip ties to secure the hose is the weakness also the 2.5ID is very tight
Kelli R.
Works as advertised. Keeps my work area cleaner and fit perfectly!
Steven B.
I watched Vince developing his prototype on his YouTube channel with great interest. I have tried every silly idea to try to keep from literally choking on massive dust generated by my Bosch mitre saw.
Chutes. Gravity fed and vacuum assisted, collection boxes….nothing worked.
This one works! I’d say that I’m collecting an unscientific 80%+ now which is easily a 1,000% improvement! Great job Vince! Bravo! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tim T.
The dust collection add on catches most of the dust but it don’t catch all of it. It does get in the way of cutting a 4x4 when sliding the saw instead of chopping. Installation was not hard. I wish there were printed instructions instead of having to use YouTube. I would recommend to a friend to try.
Nolan L.
Nice piece, fits like a glove and works well.
WILLIAM M.
Much improved dust collection
Robert A.
Watched the video to install it and had very few problems. And it works great!
Thomas G.
Followed the installation video and had no problems setting it up. I wish the new adaptors for dust hose connection would have included one that matched the OEM connection (since I already was set up to connect the dust collection that way).
Kent W.
Installation was easy and it fit perfect and best of all collects alot of dust.
Rita M.
Great improvement in dust collection.
Mike B.
Well designed and crafted. Definite improvement in sawdust removal. Currently evaluating optimal options of size and location of connecting hoses from sawdust collector.
Benita S.
Following the video that was reached from the QR Scan, the install was simple. Used it my first day and love that now the saw dust is vacuumed up instead of just letting it blow up tubing. Thanks for your great product.
Dustin C.
PRODUCT WORKS GREAT NO MORE DUST
Jeremy D.
Dramatically changes the dust collection in the small shop. So far, working excellent! Thanks!
John P.
It broke first time using it
Shafqat A.
Dust is almost gone
Jayson M.
Works great. Everything needed included. Simple install with a great how to video. Had to reach out to customer service for a question (it was my fault for missing something obvious) but they replied to me very quickly and pointed me in the right direction.
Roy M.
The exhaust performs far better than the Bosch design but I dislike suspending the vacuum connection from my power wires. I will obtain a longer hose and machine a holder that will suspend from the saw's base.
Kerry C.
Installation was fairly straight forward. I followed the video and I didn't time it, but it took less than an hour to install the Shop Nation upgrade. It took a bit longer to route my vacuum hose and power cords to be out of the way, but by using a vacuum switch, the vacuum turns on when I turn on the saw. The dust collection is a big improvement over the factory setup. I think the Shop Nation upgrade was a good investment.
Marilyn K.
I had a devil of a time trying to remove a screw from my miter saw. Not anyone's fault although a little more info could have been relayed on the video when mentioning the lock Tite situation on many saws.... It's working just fine now but had to ruin the screw...and I really should replace it....
Jeff M.
Game changer! Why isnt Bosch just hiring these guys?
William B.
This was the replacement for the first one that exploded in my saw. I believe the first one had a mill defect that weakened its strength.
Robert E.
They work great. Now if you could make a light kit that would be awesome.
Alexander H.
Note: Since I wrote this review, Shop Nation customer support has reached back out to send me the files.
Overall this seemed better than the stock dust collection chute. However it only lasted about a week before a piece of wood got kicked back and shattered the piece that attaches to the hub adapter. I was surprised to see that these parts are quite hollow. I contacted customer service to see if they would send me a print file so I could print my own replacement and actually print it solid so it would be tough. I was told that was not possible (even though they sell the files) and that maybe they would send me a replacement part after they think about it for a while. So after a few days of waiting I decided to accept their invitation to review my experience.
Craig T.
Fit Perfectly. Great instructions!
Paul D.
This entire process went extremely smoothly! Not only did the parts fit straight out of the gate and came with everything you need to fix the problem, but the instructions were easy to understand, and I couldn’t be happier with this entire process. In addition, they actually work and the change is remarkable! I would absolutely recommend this.
Bruce N.
Instalation was quick and easy. Dust was significantly reduced with the product. Customer service was superb.
David M.
I was able to install it exactly as the installation video stated. I was pleasantly surprised to see how thick the wall were. Great job! I highly recommend it.
Keep up the great work!
John S.
This dust chute was very easy to install and collects the dust much better than the original dust chute! I used a 1.75 “ ID vacuum hose to connect to my shop vac, which worked very well.
Thank you,
Jack Smith
john b.
I had high hopes for the product but… I am disappointed. First I need to say the product seemed to be built well and installation was simple. I think the zip tie attachment for the dust collection hose lacks imagination and may have contributed to my unit suddenly coming off and being destroyed by the blade. Beware
Jim S.
Perfect fit. Haven't had time to use it yet bet fit and appearance is a 10 +. Can hardly wait for winter projects!
Chuck M.
#1 not a computer savvy person so had to have help installing
#2 did not understand until my helper ran the install video that I would lose the thickness cutting
#3 it is a little better than oe but nowhere near as good as it claims
Adam T.
Super easy install! Love the product and how well made it feels. Works better than I was expecting! Hate that I waited so long to purchase it. The transaction with the seller was excellent as well and will be doing business with them again.
HOWARD M F.
Jus a thank you.
Piotr W.
All looks good
Thank you Shop nation
Kyle S.
This was an easy and fast swap out. I have only used it once and what a huge difference. It keeps the work area cleaner and easier to see your cuts and what is going on.
Terry C.
Watched the video, install went smooth. does a great job of collecting the sawdust. Very pleased.
Thanks for a great product.
Luis B.
Easy install and less dust all over.
Gerald H.
It was a perfect fit and does an amazing job collecting the sawdust.
Paige B.
Had the first generation mounted on my saw. Worked great! Had a small mishap and it shattered. Ordered two more, one for just. In. Case.
Gen 2 definitely works better!
Pierre F.
Nice look, everything needed to install is included in the package. Works really good !
Justin M.
I had the older version and this new one is so much better. It’s perfected
Larry R.
This works great. It's able to collect most of the dust. Very easy to install, and it looks like it was made from the factory. Very happy with this dust collector
Gary L.
It works pretty well. It catches much more of the dust than the original.
Steven M.
I am on my second one. The first one was great until I stupidly tried to cut an irregular shaped object and it kicked back and up and broke the chute and other parts.
I have purchased a new one but have not hooked it up yet.
In my opinion, the 2nd generation worked soooooo much better than the 1st generation it is not funny!!!
Steve M.

Amazing product!
Josh G.
Great product. Dust collection so much better. Video installation instructions amazing easy to follow.
Susan H.
I had the older (original) version of the Bosch dust collector from Travis and managed to destroy it cutting something I shouldn't have on my chop saw. (Oops!) The dust collection was great on the old one, and the new unit is just as fabulous and even easier to install. It really doesn't get in the way, and this is definitely a step up from the dust collection that comes with the Bosch. Do yourself a favor and upgrade - it's worth the price to capture that dust at the source. Thanks Travis, for making a great product and helping me keep my shop clean(er).
Pam P.
I love this product! I am a hobbiest woodworker and this attachment has reduced my sawdust output by ALOT! I can breathe again!
Tony V.
Part fit fine and the online installation video was very helpful.
Dennis B.
It’s an improvement over the system that comes with the saw but there’s still considerable uncollected sawdust
Chad C.
Super easy to install! Love the look of it, and it has worked great so far! Great increase in dust collection!
Eric P.
I should have watch the install video first, but I muddled through the install. I'm very happy with how much more dust it collects. I have the Bosch compound sliding saw. In my opinion its only flaw was dust collection. Well that has been fixed, thanks to shop nations system. I've only cut two pieces of wood to test it out. Huge improvement, I'm very happy with purchase.
JOHN H.
Fit and finish is really good, dust collection is very good compared to what comes on the Bosch saw. I highly recommend your product.
Eric A.
Works great! Second one that I've purchase happy with both!
Jeff J.
I really wanted to like it, and it does capture dust better than the exisitng one, but still not satisfied with it. Dust still shoots up everywhere. I was also not satisfied with the way vacuum is connected either. I use 2in ridgid hose, and it turned out it zip ties tied to to the cord is too weak to hold 2in vacuum hose. I had to use many more ties, and and to come up with ways to attach to the arm. Vacuum hose also interfered with glide the lock, which I had to move the hose behind the arm.
I wish there were more parts made sophisticated to hold hose and not interfere with existing parts, instead of just providing two zip ties.
Charles L.
Big improvement in dust collection. All the parts fit well and instructions were very clear.
Don A.
The video instructions were very helpful, the equipment is very well engineered and fit perfectly. It does capture “most” of the sawdust, so am very happy with the purchase.
Paul C.
i couldn't tell where this helped my dust collection from factory
Scott w.
Excellent design and easy to install, so far very happy
Thomas S.
Not convinced that the air flow is sufficient through the small vac hose, I expected it to be higher volume. Marginally better at best on my saw.
John S.
Great engineering, craftsmanship, and thinking. Much appreciated. Keep up the good work and thank you.
Mark D.
Well designed a made product
