Review on Shop Fox W1823 Portable Cyclone Dust Collector by Jake Larson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Tips over easily. This is a piece of junk

First one came damaged. Second one also dinged, but workable. Motor squeaks as it slows down, lots of tiny leaks at the welds. The metal strap that holds the bag on below the filter falls off regularly. The filter agitator only contacts about 20% of the filter, requiring manual cleaning. Tips over easily.This is a piece of junk. Spend the extra $200 and get a real one.

Pros
  • Works as well as I would expect. A little noisy.
Cons
  • The Shop Fox W1823 Portable Cyclone Dust Collector is quite loud, making it difficult to use in smaller workshops or shared spaces
