great for the DIYer,
Having done a couple thousand square feet of drywall finishing the old fashioned way (coughing up dust as I sanded), I was hoping for something inexpensive that would maybe take half of the dust out of the air. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Dust Dog does much more, sucking away almost all of the dust created from sanding. No longer will I emerge from the work area looking like a ghost.
The unit is simple, and the female connection for the pole is sturdy. Some minor drawbacks: while not made of cast iron or anything, the unit is heavier than a plain sanding block, and you also have to dangle the vacuum hose around with you, so you will tire faster when sanding, especially on higher walls and ceilings. Additionally, the “suction control valve” does not have a tremendous amount of adjustability, but I didn’t notice that sanding was any harder due to the block sticking to the sanding surface. Lastly, because the vacuum hose dangles off of the bottom of the universal joint, you can’t rotate the sanding block around as easily or in as many positions as a plain pole sander. On a positive note, grasping the unit at the universal joint is a relatively comfortable grip to do close-up hand-sanding instead of using the pole.
That being said, I’m pleased with an inexpensive means of dustless drywall sanding. I have mine hooked up to a run-of-the-mill Ridgid shop vac without any special filter, and while I do need to shake the filter out relatively frequently, it does just fine keeping the dust in the vacuum.

|Review of dustless sander,
This is a nice piece of equipment to always have on hand. It’s inexpensive compared to other dustless sanders, and still gets the job done. I use it a lot in doing repairs inside finished and lived in homes. There is no masking needed in sanding large repairs. I really like this item. It’s only downside is the attachment “Y” can be a bit weak so don’t press down too hard when sanding.

|Truly dustless,
This pole sander works very good, and captures nearly all of the dust. My first experience was sanding 800 square feet, and I had a barely visible amount of dust on my arms. I also have the Porter Cable 7800, and it definitely is not nearly as good at capturing the dust as this pole sander. I was just using a small 6 gallon Shop Vac QSP with cleanstream filter. The addition of drywall bags in the shop vac will help keep the suction higher. I highly recommend this pole sander and will never use a regular pole sander again.
