For something so small has tremendous impact!! Works better than anticipated!!
Yeudis N.
No good to cut on angle
Nicholas M.
Works a lot better than the dust port that was on the saw and good quality parts. Video instructions made it easy to install. . Highly recommend
Kent B.
The system must be used with a vacuum, it does not work just dangling the hose, it clogs up. Your vacuum hose must fit one of the adapters or you are rigging up a janky fix. I thought it would fit the original dust bag, which is why I bought the product, it does not. My dust chute broke, that’s why I bought this replacement. It is not a replacement. I need to find an OEM replacement chute for my dust bag to work. I use my saw portably and need to dangle the hose or use a shop vac. It doesn’t work in these situations. The product is meant for a permanent shop set up.
Lou M.
It helps resolute the amount of saw dust in the air
ronald l.
works very well.wish I got it sooner.
Timothy R.
Great product. Very easy install and I still can't belive just how well it works. FAR superior to factory.
Judd D.
Well I'll be honest I can tell it is a 5 star product from installing it over a week ago, but I haven't tried it yet! Dad life for the win.
Vegen B.
it works and it dose the job. The only issue I have need longer hose .other than that it works prefect
Gary C.
Works just like advertised, my shop is a lot cleaner now .
Roger S.
Good produict, fit perfectly.
Maria F.
I'm Pat. My wife is Maria. The item works just fine. It will surely help cut down on the sawdust in my workspace.
Mike B.
The part that cups the saw blade is missing. Without that part it doesn’t work as it should. Do you have this part?
John T.
Have a little problem with the rubber
Lee J.
I was a bit skeptical but happy that I purchased the dust collection. It cut down on my sawdust clean-up considerably. Definitely worth it.
Jeff D.
Awesome product and the support staff was great when the wrong product initially arrived. Took care of it and sent me the correct item right away. Would definitely shop again here
brian R.
Was so happy I found your product.
After 2 years of owning my saw both pieces bottom and top of the dust deflector broke and was no longer available at any marketplace. Very happy with how it fit and how it collects the dust
Steve D.
The dust collector works very very well and does a very good job of catching most of the sawdust however, there is the matter of the hose. It’s really no place to put the hose. It’s not fixed like the original so the hose has to lay down over the side, which eventually, I’m sure it will crack. I think this could’ve been modified by putting a solid connection on the backside as the original has right now I have a hose that dangles every time I cut it and eventually it will crack.
Christopher J.
Works Great
Lori T.
The video as easy to follow and installation was a snap. Thanks so much!
Kyle C.
Easy to install and works great.
Dennis L.
Easy to install, definitely catches most of the dust.
wish I know about this sooner. worth the price.
Dave E.
Way better than the original. Granted the original was broken by a piece of wayward crown. Still better than when it was brand new.
Lori A.
The instructions for installing the device were simple and clear. It was easy to remove the original dust collector and install the new one from Shop Nation. From the few times I've used it since installing the new dust collector I can tell that it is 100 times better than the old one.
Bob P.
Very easy install. It works quite well. I think if I upgrade my vac it would even be better. Definitely removes substantially more when cutting
Gage F.
Doesn't fit without modifications
Faron M.
works as promised.
Todd T.
The device works as advertised. Cuts down quite a bit of the dust.
Dave B.
Cut down my dust by 80 percent
Casey B.
This is my replacement for the first one I have had for awhile now. It works great until it cracks when you’re cutting something larger, then it seems a bit fragile.
Donald B.
Fit was perfect. Way better than the original. Highly recommend! If I had to guess it picks up about 95% more than the original one did. I just need a better vacuum system.
Phil W.
This is the second Shop Nation dust collector chute I have installed on my Ridgid Miter Saw Model R4222. The first one (version 5) worked pretty well until the flap got caught in the blade, so I ordered another one. They sent version 8.2. When I could not get it installed and I thought there may be a problem converting from version 5 to version 8.2, I messaged them and they assured me I received the correct part. I spent 4-5 hours attempting to get the new cute to fit and 4-5 messages with them telling me I receiving the correct part. Finally, someone else returned my email and said they sent the wrong part. I don't know if when they upgraded the versions, they took into effect of previous versions. I have received a new version 5, installed it and it works like the first one. In their installation video, they talk about how the version 8 is such an improvement over other versions, but I will never know.
Tim R.
Doesn't do as much as it claims it does.
Don C.
Everything went on easily and looks good. The only issue was the 2.25" hose adaptor, which doesn't fit as shown in the video. If I heat it up to soften it, then it should slide in, and then I'll glue it to make it secure.
Paul B.
Wonderful tool, I'm surprised my miter saw manufacturer hasn't contacted you for licensing your product for their saw!
Marcee M.
Easy to install, works well
Ronald B.
works great and easy to install
Alvin R.
I just finished cutting 14-10 foot long 8/4 material into 28 inch long boards, the little saw dust you see is less than half of what it used to be with cutting one board.
I purchased this with some reservations but I was sick and tired of all the dust, thank you it works better than advertised.
Michael H.
Works very well
Marty F.
Amazing product that does everything it claims and super easy install. Have already recommended this product to friends.
Russell L.
This product is excellent! Works better than I would have expected. I had a small workshop and this eliminated the dust issues. Install was very easy thanks to the install video they include. Will purchase from these guys again!
Christopher J.
This is fantastic and it captures a lot more than I expected. This is a must have for a small shop.
Scott M.
100% better dust collection then the original setup on my Ridgid saw. Highly recommend Shop Nation!
Peter J.
Delivery took longer than expected, but that's not a big deal. It is what it is. Everything was pocketed well, the QR code was simple enough to access and the install video easy to follow. Install went smoothly and I had no issues. The item collect far more dust than the stock dust shoot, and when I attached a vacuum, the amount of excess saw dust was negligible.
That said, the product worked great until it failed. The hard plastic portion of the boot broke where it's connected to the rubber shoe while cutting a 4x4, effectively rendering the product useless. I'm not sure what happened, but the product went from collecting nearly all the saw dust to collecting no saw dust at all in one cut leading me to find the broken piece.
This is the reason that I don't offer ratings or reviews on new products immediately after receiving them despite Shop Nation's insistence that I review the product right away, in exchange for a discount on my next purchase.
Perhaps what happened to my order was a fluke and unlikely to happen. Thw problem is that it did happen and now I'm at 3-4 weeks of use, on an interior jobsite with no operational dust shoot and $60 in the hole on a Shop Nation product.
Douglas H.
Better than the factory one fits perfect sturdy the design makes a lot of sense nice job
Tom O.
Installation went smoothly using the video instructions. Dust collection immediately improved. My only complaint was I could not use the zero clearance jig with the system. Shop Nation customer service sent me a video showing how to use a short wood piece to adapt. That worked well and I am very pleased with this system.
Duane T.
It was very easy to install. It is working great
Michael J.
Excellent product. Captures almost all of the sawdust from hardwood and construction 2x material. Definity cuts down dust waist from particle board as well.
John P.
The dust Collection work great. I just wish it had a solid discharge mount with the same outlet as the original dust collection.
Anthony P.
Works really well. Installed easily as I followed along with the installation video. When cutting I would estimate the new shoot captures 80-90% of the dust. After cutting multiple 2x4s the saw barely had any sawdust on it. Wish I would have purchased sooner.
Augustus A.
have not used it yet but installation and fit both were excellent. If you need item fast pay for extra shipping. Took 2 weeks from order to delivery which seemed excessive and was not USPS fault.
Jessica W.
Fits perfectly. Works so much better than the original. Wish I would have bought this sooner.
Kim W.
I would love to give it 5 stars because it works very well when cutting face boards. However, when cutting 5" boards on edge, which is what I predominately do 100x in a day, it's a bit trickier to place a board against the fence without worrying about cutting the rubber guard.
Steve G.
Building out my new shop in my new house, and the dust collector works great. Thanks
Robert
Item fit the saw perfectly, but could use longer zip ties to restrain vac hose connection farther back from the equipment handle.
Gene S.
Unfortunately the dust shoot did not fit my. Saw. I was very disappointed. So must return.
Rick B.
Dust collection & Miter Saw: never thought you get these two to dance...surprise, surprise, surprise! Works amazing!
Matthew B.
Much better than the collection bag. Would probably benefit from a longer hose to attach to the vacuum. Overall pretty pleased
Dave P.
It was amazing to me how much more saw dust was collected by the new Shop Nation dust chute versus the chute that came with my Rigid saw. I would agree with what I had seen mentioned by others that over 90% of the dust is collected with the new chute. In my case I'd say over 95%. A ton of dust was going all over the saw, vacuum hose, and a large portion of the garage floor and nearby stuff using the old OEM chute. It seemed like the OEM chute collected nothing even though I had it connected to my shop vac. It was annoying having to constantly sweep everything and keep from tracking the dust everywhere. Now there's hardly any dust and what little escapes the chute stays around the saw table. The new chute was easy to install and the installation video was well done. I only had a couple issues. One of the four screws that mounts the hub adapter to the saw could never be fully tightened. It's tightening resistance was constant from start to finish and never got snug like the other three but just kept turning. Its a threadless connection. The other issue was with how to secure the chute hose and the vacuum hose connected to it. A couple tie wraps were provided with the chute kit but there was nothing stationary near the chute hose that it could be secured to. I found that the vacuum hose could be secured to the end of the saw's guide rail which would also support the chute hose at the same time. However, the tie wraps would have to be cut off each time I wanted to use the vacuum for something else. I ended up using a small ball type bungee cord which is easily attached and removed. See photo.
Sean D.
Didnt take long to install. Basic tools. A few moments of your time that save lots of time cleaning up the dust. Works great! Thanks again
Jon D.
This is a complete total waste of money. The cheap plastic broke and now it’s completely worthless to me. I will make sure to get online and let everybody know that they should avoid this product at all costs.
Paul G.
Perfect fit, seems to be very well designed and install was easy, video really helped. Looking forward to using it once temperatures in my shop come above freezing.
Jim P.
Works great, cuts down prabably 90% of the dust. Grabs more dust that the OEM model. Very happy with the purchase.
Tim C.
Absolutely love it! Does it collect 100%? Nope, but does an outstanding job.
Bob Y.
Fits and works perfect! I'm glad I bought it.
Steve T.
Great product, easy to install and works great. Would recommend!
Dan C.
Works so much better than the factory!! Easy to assemble.
Mark A.
Ordered this due to the factory installed dust collector just lacking and alot of dust still getting by. This one is much better and covers the end of the blade and removes a lot more dust.
Luis g.
Works great,easy to install
Jeff
It misses a lot of the dust. Not great.
Doug E.
Dramatically reduced amount of dust from my Ridgid 4222 mither saw. Super easy to install. Only knock is the vacuum hose needs to be stabilized along the sliding part of my saw.
Joel H.
Since this was installed on a sliding miter saw there are some issues with the hose for the dust collection when sliding the saw. In my set up the dust collection hose goes down, which causes it to interfere with the slide at times. Otherwise love it.
David P.
Worked out really well
George B.
Installing with video was extremely helpful. I am curious if there is an attachment or a way to be able to use the OEM dust collection bag? Also, unless I'm doing something wrong, if you attach the hose to the handle of the saw the full travel range of the saw is restricted.
Nick T.
Drastically cuts down on dust. After going through pneumonia this product has been a serious life saver. I really really like the products that shop nation offers and it was so easy to install. Highly recommend . Keeps job sight so much cleaner and hooked up to my big 16 gallon Ridgid 6.5 HP. Vaccum with a bag and a heppa filter and diffuser.... thier is no dust or mess. Even works awesome with my Ridgid 5.0 HP vack with bag heppa filter and diffuser is just as good. I wish I got it a long time ago due to the stock one not being so great. It also has the two attachments to make it easy to switch vacuums depending on the job. Buy it your love it no matter what brand sliding dual bevell compound saw you have. Great job shop nation hands down.
william b.
Installed very easy.
Perfect fit and form.
And, works like a charm.
Shawn D.
I received the wrong part. I was able to make it work. When I told customer service they were very helpful and told them I figured out how to make work what I received.
Michael S.
Easy to install and it takes up most of the dust. What a big change for the shop!
Dustin P.
The longest part of the installation was sitting thru the one ad I got before the install tutorial on YouTube.
Superb product. While it doesn’t catch 100% of the sawdust, I can say that it does catch 90-95% of what comes off the saw.
Larry c.
great fit and keeps saw area cleaner than anything I've tried before
Tim W.
Installation was easy and it captures “most” of the dust (as advertised)!
Luis
Installation was easy and it works awesome. Thanks
Donald
I installed it. Doesn’t catch everything still got to clean up
behind the saw. Still noticed saw dust. It’s okay but won’t buy again. Plus it took almost two weeks to get it
Henry C.
Quality material, easy install. I found the flex hose a problem, the length could be a few inches longer. The flex hose is stressed when cutting wide boards. When adjusted for wise boards and switch to narrow boards the flex hose bunches up in the unit and can't complete the cut safely. I added a longer hose from an old shop vac and it works just fine. Good dust collector.
Tim O.
What an improvement! Exceeded my expectations.
John G.
To be honest with all the hype on the internet I was expecting more, even though miter saws are not kind to dust collection. The thing that really disappointed me was the hose hanging loose from the rear of the saw. I guess I was supposed to zip tie it to something but it seemed too jankey. I ended up making a bracket out of aluminum flat bar that resembles the factory piece . Even though it still doesn’t work all that well at least it looks professional….. no zip ties !!!!
CHET D.
Although Ridgid stated that the 2 models were similar and that your model # was sImply my model #updated, the unit did not connect properly. I guess I'll need to make up a modified unit based off of your unit that will fit my saw.
Jeff W.
This works pretty well.
Laurence G.
The supplied hose is not long enough to anchor the end to the saw, so it doesn't flop around. Their only remedy was to sell me a 30" hose for $30, and I assume plus shipping, I don't know because I didn't take them up on their generous offer.
