Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Product Description:
The DELTA 50-760 1.5 HP 1,200 CFM Vertical Bag Dust Collector features a volume-saving vertical design that doesn't compromise the power of its 1.5 HP motor, which moves up to 1,200 cubic feet of air per minute. The vertical dust collector sits on heavy-duty casters, a sturdy steel base, and four glide wheels that can move anywhere in your shop without damage. The durable plastic collection bag can be mounted on one of two rings. The upper bag can filter out pollutants one micron in size--contaminants that your eyes can't see but your lungs will thank you for. The collection bag is a clear 6-mil durable plastic that allows you to see when the bag needs changing. Exhaust is filtered through the filter bag rather than the collection bag to prevent air from escaping. The dust collector includes four swivel caster assemblies, a cord, a plug, and an instruction manual.

Content: I received the DELTA 50-760 dust collector today via UPS. When I opened the box, the main unit of the dust collector was dented. I continued the assembly to see if the dent would cause an issue. I also noted that the frame of the unit was dented and the grey paint was cracked and peeling due to impact. Then I noticed that the motor housing was smashed in and the blower fan would not turn. I was able to remove the motor housing, hammer out the dents and get the dust collector to work. It is a heavy item, but it should have been packaged and shipped more carefully. If returning it was easy (and if I didn't need this item immediately), I would return the item for an exchange. Hopefully the machine does not experience problems in the future due to the state it arrived.
After getting the unit working, it ran quieter than expected and produced good suction. Will update review later after using it for a while.
Summary: Damaged unit

Content: This is working great for my small shop. The one thing I didn't take into account was its height. It's too tall for me to easily move around my basement due to overhead storage and ductwork. So I'll probably use it as more of a stationary unit than a mobile one.
Summary: Does a great job.

Content: This is a fantastic product. I was able to assemble this and be up and running in about 20 min. The internal spring bag clamp was very easy to use. Just make sure you empty the bag before it gets too full, or you'll have a real mess on your hands. Do not ask how I know this :)
The 1 micron bag is fantastic. The air in my shop (and the floor) is so clean now, I cannot imagine going back to a shop vac. The DC is much less noisy than a shop vac. It has more of a drone than a whine. I often leave mine running for long periods of time in between cuts and barely notice it. I had to install an over the blade collector on my table saw to collect all the dust. My shop vac might have done a better job when using only the dust port on the cabinet. However, with the cabinet and the over the blade collector, there's very little dust that escapes, even when cutting MDF. The miter saw is a different story. This thing is amazing at collecting dust from the miter saw. I built a "back stop" behind the saw and installed a 6" port on the bottom of the table just behind the saw. You can see the dust flying every which way off of the saw, then being sucked into the 6" port. It is a beautiful thing.
I highly recommend using 220v. I've got mine hooked up to 110v on a dedicated 20 amp circuit about 18 inches from the breaker and I still trip the breaker every once in a while. It isn't too much of a pain since the breaker is right there, but I assume a 220v setup would result in fewer trips.
Overall, I¡¦m glad that I bought it. I set up ducting and blast gates to each machine rather than wheel this thing from tool to tool. That results in me actually using the DC for nearly every operation. The air is much cleaner, and I no longer have a nose full of saw dust after a day in the shop. I¡¦m constantly amazed at how fast the bags fill up. To think, most of that stuff was ending up on my floor or in the air before¡K
Summary: This thing sucks...but that's a good thing

Content: I'm relly impressed with the power of this machine. I plan to install a ductwork system for it over the holidays, but so far I've used it on the planer and the drum sander and it really does a fine job. I'm looking forward to having it installed as a permanent setup.

Content: This DC is great machine for a small shop. Setup was easier then I expected. It does take an extra set of hands to setup. I have used it with my planer and bandsaw and what a difference. I should have done this sooner.
The only negative is the specs say the machine runs on 110 or 220. What they do not tell you is to run on 220 you have to purchase a new switch for around $32. Not a big deal BUT it would have been nice to know so I could have had the switch here when the machine arrived.
Summary: Great deal on a great machine
