The dust collection nozzle is too small and the hose adapter that came with the unit restricts that opening even more. During use the hose adapter came out frequently. When the adapter stays in place dust collection was not very good. Dust leaked out around the shroud everywhere

Did the job as expected. I used it with a Ridgid 7" sander. The disc ended up being too low so I used extra washers to bring to a workable height.I had the dust shroud hooked to a cyclone separator & shopvac and had very little dust escaping. If you try a similar setup make sure to empty the cyclone whenever it reaches about half, and it works better if your shopvac has a fleece bag rather than letting all the fine dust hit the filter directly, that way the filter continues to perform well. For a large job you'll have to routinely clean the filter and replace the fleece bag etc (failure to do so and the dust will start escaping the shroud)My only complain is the edge opening door kept opening on its own. I had to fix it permanently to keep it in place.

It's great that it arrived in less than 24 hours but I was very disappointed in it's ability to contain the dust. The unit is definitely strong and would probably stand up over time but I just can't use it. There is a big design flaw in that the bristles in the red slider don't match up to the ones in the main body (see pic), there's a 1/2"-5/8" gap that lets all the dust escape. I hooked this up to a 5hp shop vac so there was plenty of suction power to pickup the dust. Not sure the remedy but it's disappointing.

Bought a new dewalt grinder to grind down our basement concrete floor and was overwhelmed by the dust. Purchased this kit, making sure it fit our 7" new grinder. Followed the instructions, tightened everything and tested it in mid air before touching the floor and it jammed up. Now we cannot get the thing off. The center bolt is so tight, it's bending the wrench provided. We are out $200 for the grinder and diamond disk and another $60 for this kit. So furious right now. I would return the item, but I cannot get it off m'y new grinder!

Works well when connected to a “dustless vacuum”. I purchased for my business to grind down concrete floors after the flatworm guys did a poor job. The houses were passed paint and trim so dust control was very important.

My company uses a lot of dust collector shrouds for projects and this is far better than any other brand we've used. Very durable, solid attachment to grinder, shields dust better than others and the sliding hatch for edging was an unexpected bonus.

The company does a pretty good job of giving multiple adaptors to fit a range of grinders. Its just impossible to cover them all.In my case, none of the adaptors fit my Dewault sander/polisher so I made my own to fit with some pvc pipe. This also allowed me to adjust the height on the guard to accommodate my grinding wheel which was taller than the recommeneded height of 1.6". But at the cost of these grinding wheels I was determined to make it work. I also replaced the clamping handle with just a nut and bolt so I could tighten it down more.I was grinding thin set off a concrete floor in a very small bathroom , and the amount of dust I would have been exposed to too would have been too much. This attached to my shop vac worked great. Better than I had expected. Just wish I had done this sooner.

This item does not work at all. It doesn’t fit on low enough preventing the grinder wheel from making contact with the surface. I bought this expecting it to fit as its described and didn’t discover that the item wasn’t as it says until I was already on the jobsite. The work couldn’t wait so I modified this product myself to fit on properly but even when it was secured at the correct level the cheap quality bristles had basically zero impact on preventing dust from escaping. This is a cheap piece of crap do not buy

This seems solidly built. My primary complaint is there is no positive attachment to the grinder. The friction between the plastic clamping washer and the grinder is as good as it gets. The cam lever lock is a little insubstantial and the amount additional force it provides is negligible. Be prepared to tighten the clamp with a 1/2" socket to keep it from wobbling around. The vacuum port is metric and the included rubber adapter is largely useless. It does not adapt to any standard US vacuum hose systems and the wall thickness reduces the opening to less than 1" so will likely create more of an obstruction than anything.Between the fitment and after fruitlessly searching for a vacuum adapter I was about to return it and go with something else. After doing more research, the only thing that is better is the Dustless Technologies D5850 and that is and eye-popping $120. This resigned me to making this one work.I've modified the clamping washer for a more positive attachment and found an adapter that matches the diameter and taper of the vacuum port and makes an extremely good connection:The Bosch VAC020 (NOT the Bosch VAC004. Although both are listed as 2-1/2 Inch Hose to 35mm Dust Hose Port Adapter, the VAC020 is the proper one)https://www.amazon.com/Bosch-VAC020-2-Inch-Hose-Adapter/dp/B000WAAFXA

Works great. Was a little difficult to install on my grinder, but once it was installed it worked amazingly.

Product was less expensive and came with different couplings to fit a variety of grinders. Fits my DeWalt 7" Great deal compared to other similar attachments. I added a "water bucket" just before my shop vac and this really, really stops the dust. I should have purchased this years ago. I saved $25 bucks just on cleaning expense first use.
