🧹 Makita XCV02Z 18V LXT Cordless Dry Dust Extractor/Blower: Powerful Portable Cleaning Tool (Tool Only) Review

Great little vacuum cleaner. Enough power and performance for most cutting, grinding and milling applications. The long hose and carrying strap are very practical. The only reason I can't give 5 stars is that the vacuum doesn't come with hose connectors for some/all Makita tools that have a vacuum adapter. Overall good value for money and dust at work (free).

Pros: - Gets the job done and has good suction - Comes with a shoulder strap and is versatile - Hose fits Makita tools - Great for remote work and small jobs - High (loud) and low (quiet) settings Cons: - Uses batteries (especially 5 Ah) - the hose is inconvenient for storage during transport - when cleaning large…

85% of my cordless tools are made by Makita and they're fantastic. This collector is a big disappointment. During operation, it sucks up chips from my Makita cordless planer or dust from a circular saw. The perfect pack and pack size, it fits nicely in a medium sized Milwaukee suitcase. The problem is killing the 5.0 battery. Running time 10 seconds before battery protection stops it. I sent the first one back and the replacement does the same. I cleaned the bag completely and the same result…
