This dust collector does not do a good job. It's better than the factory system, but that's not saying much. I got the same results from wrapping a piece of poster board around the outise of the factory dust collector.
DAVID M.
It's actually a fairly easy installation, if you follow the step by step video. It most certainly collects more sawdust that the factory installed system but it isn't a panacea for dust collection. I'm not aware of any system that is, short of installing a shroud around your miter saw. I haven't done a trimming out project since installing it but I am impressed by the amount of sawdust collected in my test cuts and the few off cuts that I have made.
Tom B.
Works well catches most of the dust, easy install.
happy with the purchase
Marcus J.
Love it. Sucks a lot of dust however I sometimes use a zero clearance fence and when doing so it tore the rubber boot
kevin f.
Shipping was fast and directions to install were easy to follow.
Howard R.
Parts went together very well, very easy to assemble. Have used it a couple of times and it seems to work very well. My only concern is the length (top to bottom) of the rubber piece that helps capture the sawdust. I think it would miss less if longer.
Gabriel S.
Works as advertised
Dr. Randall A.
Excellent Installation video.
Take the time to watch, rewind, watch, follow step by step and sooner than you stress it’s ready to reduce, not replace, broom time!

I installed the dust collector on my new Hercules miter saw this afternoon and so far, I am terribly disappointed. I didn't have any less dust than I did when I attached a semicircle piece of poster board to the OEM dust collector. This was not worth the money.
Emily D.
Vast improvement over the stock collector, great instruction video went together easy!
Howard
I've attached it and have used it a couple of times. I'm pretty happy with it. I want to use it a couple of more times. The only thing I've noticed so far is that it seems if the rubber pad was slightly wider it would catch the sawdust a little more.
James P.
Absolutely love the upgrade. I purchased the dust collection system upgrade before I bought the saw, then when Harbor Freight ran the huge 30% Off all Hercules corded power tools sale earlier this year I purchased the saw for $249. I had been waiting for the stand to go on sale, and last week I was finally able to pick it up for $89, so today I did the the set up of the whole miter saw system and installed the dust collection prior to making my first cut; I absolutely love the whole setup!
Joseph
Great company. Product is as stated and fits perfectly.
Robert W.
Worked as advertised. Install instructions were great.
Best customer service I have received online to date.
Would buy again.
Joe O.
Easy to install, fits perfectly. Huge difference in the amount of saw dust etc around my saw. Picks up I’d say close to 75%. You need a dust collector obviously.
Matthew A.
Everything has been thought of - the extra screw and rubber shield, the post card with the qr code link to the installation video, advice on what not to do (over tightening) and the follow up emails. All very seemless and professional.
BRYAN M.
Haven’t install yet but quality looks great!!
Larry P.
Fits perfectly and very well made. So much better then before. No dust!
John G.
Very simple installation that took just a few minutes. First board cut I saw an immediate improvement. No more sawdust blowing ot the back and all over my workbench.
RAFAIL M.
Better than factory original
Jordan B.
Worked like a charm! I’d say a solid 95% of the man glitter gets sucked away instead of covering my bench top,
David V.
Super easy to install, and works great!
Daniel T.
Easy to install. Picks up 95% of dust. Flex hose could be longer to help clear motor housing.
Jim A.
Assembly instructions were easy to follow
Installation went smoothly and all parts fit well
With
Thomas K.
great tolerances. Nicely designed. Fits well, works great!
TRAVIS K.
Easy install and works great thank you!
Michael D.
Finally had a chance to install the dust chute on my Herculee 12 inch sliding compound miter saw. It took only half an hour and it works great collecting almost all of the sawdust. One of the best add-on investments improving a tools performance that I have made. Thanks for this improvement to my workshop.
Jeff S.
Easy to install and directions were great. Connected to my dust collector and can definitely see a difference. Thanks!!
Bruce C.
It fits, it works and the installation video was an excellent aid.
Joseph B.
Generally really like it! Its nice to not have my miter saw blasting my garage with dust :P As an engineer I would make one slight change to how the hose adapter locks in. I would make the notch and bump a bit more prominent. The flex of the filament makes it a bit too loose. Overall very good!
Antonio
It is great! It does not collect 100% of the dust, but I wasn't expecting it to. Came with a QR code to help with installation, and that made it intall easily.
BOB W.
Awesome product, easy to follow instructions! It's a true game changer!!!
JEFFREY P.
Fits well, easy to install. Does a much better job collecting dust than the factory original.
Jerry D.
Everything went together fairly easy. I'm very happy with the dust reduction. I am also impressed in the speed with which your customer service answered my questions.
Calvin S.
Was simple to install but had to rig a little to connect it to my shop-vac. Takes care of about 85% of the debris, so a way big improvement as I used to cover the wall of my garage .
Bruce
The assembly video is quite good. A few errors easily overcome. The product is excellent. It probably captures 80% of the dust from cutting.
Don R.
It installed very easily on my Hercules miter saw. I have been sick for the last 3 weeks and haven't had a chance to even try it out yet.
Byron S.
exceeded expectations.
Ashley D.
I am in the UK and this dust boot fits perfectly on my Lumberjack PRO SERIES 12 Inch mitre saw. Dust collection is much much better than the factory dust boot but not perfect, hence 4 stars, but I guess to get 100% of the dust is virtually impossible. YouTube video fitting instructions very good so fitting boot was very straight forward. Very happy with my purchase and would recommend.
David E.
Mounted like it was made for it. Works great, wish I had bought it earlier.
Charles B.
Dust collection on any miter saw is always terrible, this made it better. Nothing will ever be perfect, but this is better than before.
William R.
Way better than the factory part! Very happy with the purchase. Would rate it 5 stars, but the hose that came with it is about 6 inches to short. Or maybe consider swapping for a hose that stays expanded once you stretch it
out. This little inconvenience is definitely not a deal breaker. I'd buy this again
Randall S.
Works very well, I have it connected to a shop vac along with an auto switch, so each time the saw starts-the vacuum starts. Very little saw dust since I started using the Shop Nation dust collector.
DENNIS B.
INSTALLATION WAS EASY THANKS TO YOUR VIDEO. WORKS OKAY BUT NOT QUITE AS WELL AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD, BUT BETTER THAN THE STOCK COLLECTOR BY A LOT. THANKS.
DO YOU PRINT CUSTOM STUFF. AM INTERESTED IN GETTING SOME ACCESSORIES FOR MY CIGARETTE STUFFING MACHINE WHICH IS A POWERMATIC 5. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS CAN YOU GET ME IN TOUCH WITH SOMEONE THAT DOES THIS KIND OF PRINTING.
Rodney
Works better than the original
Dom
Greatly reduces dust in my garage ! It’s very east to install , great service and shipping with excellent quality highly recommended.
Nathan B.
I've watched several reviews and have a friend who installed one on his Dewalt! Absolutely the best addition for dust collection. Now I wish I hadn't built an entire enclosure around my saw because I don't need it now!
Jeff O.
Fits perfectly and so far, works great!
Arthur G.
Easy install and while I haven't used the saw since, I'm don't know how much of an improvement will be achieved. It appears that it should make a significant improvement in saw dust collection.
Tom G.
Fit and finish is outstanding and does a great job with dust.
Douglas G.
It work okay its all 3d printed so i don't expect it to last long.
Jimbo K.
Installed quickly. Works great!
Brad F.
Absolutely horrible company to work with! As of the writing of this survey, it has now been 22 days since I placed the order and I still have not received the item. They say that the issue is out of their hands because USPS doesn't know where the item is. Company is not willing to make the situation right. They have my money and I have nothing in return!
Juan P.
Work great, was easy to install. Will help keep my shop a whole lot cleaner.
Dennis T.
This has made a dramatic difference over the stock dust collection system. It does not get it all as you can see in the photo but after cutting 2 rooms of large MDF Crown that and a little on the floor was all it missed. Installation was really easy. So far I love it.
james D.
Installed easy enough. Doesn't work as well as I had hoped. Maybe because I am cutting green wood with a lot of moisture. The sawdust is damp and sticky. It's better than OEM but sawdust still goes everywhere. Also, the first thick board (3") that I cut it also cut the end of the rubber dust chute. When u push the saw down the rubber flattens out on the board and when slide saw back it cut about 3/4" in the middle of the rubber. Dust is a problem and hoped this would solve it. It does help some but wouldn't call it good.
K. Jeff Y.
Installation was easy but when I used it for the first time my vertical fences were in close to the blade opening and when I cut the test piece the rubber flap pushed against the fence which in turn pushed the flap into the blade and cut a chunk out of it.
Jeffrey S.
Installed this as soon as I received it. I am very happy to report the dust collection is so much better! Highly recommend this add-on...
Jeff P.
Far better than the original dust collector, easy to install, works great. Love it!
Randy J.
The adapter did not fit my saw even though it is a Hercules, HE-74 model. The screws that attach the adapter to the saw is located differently than where your video shows it attaching. I'm not sure if they made different attachment points for the same model or not. I can supply photos if you desire.
Jimmy P.
Received 10 days after placing my order. There were no missing items and installation on my Hercules saw was straightforward per their referenced video. The fit was perfect. Operationally it collects at least 80% of the dust and doesn’t restrict my saw in any way.
Byron H.
With the YouTube video, it was easy to install. I haven’t had it on very long, but so far it has worked well-much better than the stock version.
Richard J.
Easy installation works good
Michael C.
Installation video was great and very easy to follow. The new components work very well. Almost all of the dust/chips went straight into the vacuum. This is the cleanest miter saw I have ever used.
Mary P.
It definitely helps with dust collection but one drawback is I have to open the fence up to allow the rubber piece that hangs down to have clearance, otherwise it gets caught up and tears out.
Matthew Z.
Easy install....way better than original sub par dust collector.
GREGORY T.
very simple to install Thank you
Jimmy
Order to receipt was 10 days. That’s acceptable. Installation was easy by following the installation video. Performance is impressive. The unit collects 80% or more of generated dust.
Joey K.
It fit exactly as it supposed to. Very nice. Definitely picks up a lot more sawdust than the manufacturer’s setup. Thanks for doing the research and design!! Keep up the good work. BTW love the YouTube channel.
JAMES A.
This product is terrible I still have sawdust problems.
I didn’t see any changes in seeing less sawdust.
I had high hopes this would work, but it didn’t. This was a complete let down and a waste of of money.
Not happy at all.
Ralph M.
Works better than I thought
Assembled very easy
Only used it once so far
Thank you very much
Allen H.
Worked great. Nice little piece. So glad I found it.
Raymond B.
It's a very nice looking and well made accessory for my Hercules 12" miter saw. I just installed it and after watching the video the installation went really smooth.
I would recommend this product for anyone.
Thanks
Phil L.
Works great so much better than the original equipment
Juan R.
I like the design. It was a perfect fit. Only thing is I found the rubber to be too flimsy and it could be extended. I came up with a fix by adding a slim strip of metal and thicker rubber to the front and back. The metal helped to keep its shape and the added rubber helped to extend it. With that fix it collects more dust. For that price that fix should be included. I recommend this product and would still buy it again since it's an easy fix and I have the materials to do it.
Juan
Perfect fit. I did modify it a bit. Rubber sleeve seemed to be too thin. I added a slim strip of metal to keep its shape and an extra strip of rubber un the back and front . That made it a bit lower to capture more dust. Easy fix but for the price that should be included. I would buy it again.
Kevin R.
Made well. Fit is good. Makes a big dent in the dust problem.
John G.
Easy install. OEM was worse than useless.
Russell G.
Installation was very easy and straightforward. I'm running with the supplied blade from the Hercules manufacturer. This may have something to do with the subpar results as I do get many chips that make it past the collection system. This may be the blade and it may have to do with my choice of wood, which is birch plywood, both 1/2 and 3/4 thickness. I'm also going to add a zero clearance tape and I will quickly learn if that change is an improvement. Other than that, a new blade could help. I have great flow from my DeWalt vacuum, almost too much as it occasionally folds the rubber flap.
Leonard H.
Worked perfectly.
Gary K.
This order took 5 days to process and 10 days in shipping
Bural J.
All parts fit well. I just hope no kickback happens because that steel bracket where it goes protects rear of saw. So far so good
Dave D.
The dust collection is much better. There is always going to be some in front of the saw, but a large amount is picked. It's worth the investment and easy to attach. Thanks for a good upgrade.
Craig S.
Does a much better job than the stock dust collection system. Especially works great when cutting smaller boards.
Robert C.
The shop nation attachment is better than the OEM dust collection collar.
Michael J.
It performs as advertised. Very pleased as it does collect most of the debris. Glad I purchased.
david a.
10X better than stock!!!
Brian G.
The dust collector is doing an amazing job on my Hercules 12 inch compound miter saw. What a difference!
Ray G.
the flap is to low the saw cut it and the dust doesn’t go anywhere near the exit.
Dale B.
It works the way they said, no complaints.
Wesley S.
Received it on time. Very easy instructions video to follow installation. Definitely a big improvement on collecting dust.
Glad I purchased this product.
Wes
Kenny H.
Love it. Works great.!
Paul B.
I was going to purchase an DW 780 but saw some videos on YouTube and the Harbor Freight Hercules was compared and I saved $350 & I like it a lot. My saw was Easy to modify with the Shop Nation dust collection system. I added a Festool dust collector to the system. Everything fit perfectly and I finally have dust control. Thank you for a great product. I love it.
William D.
Works as advertised. So far very satisfied.
Craig W.
Easy installation and video helped out a lot. Haven’t had the chance to use it yet.
