I have not yet used the dust collector but I did spend a frustrating hour today partially assembling it, and over it looks to be pretty solid construction, it's mostly sheet metal and where their is plastic being used it's of a sufficiently sturdy construction. The main thing that irks me about this are the small details...
1. The guy who put the screw holes into the sheet metal must have been taking a day off that day. One screw hole in particular was terribly askew for the securing the motor to the base, it was so bad I had to take a metal file and grind away around one edge just to get the screw to seat in the hole. Likewise the holes that were pre-drilled to attach the ports to the motor did not line up exactly, one screw in particular I practically stripped trying to get into the hole, since it was a few MM off center.
2. There were 2 corners of sheet metal around the base of the motor that are bent upward. The item looked well packed and my drivers were courteous, professional and careful in delivering the item. I can only surmise this was a factory defect.
3. The instructions are minimal.So there is some guesswork and reading/re-reading on certain steps since they only have one picture to assist you. However, I really liked that they separated the other language instructions into a separate booklets instead of combining it into one behemoth booklet. I could just recycle the French and Spanish books rather than them taking up space.
I will update the review once I got a chance to finish assembling this guy. Honestly, these are minor qualms if the machine does what its suppose to do and lasts I could see updating to 4 stars. But PM should make their engineers and workers try to put one of these things together and see how easy it is to get a screw into a poorly threaded hole, and puzzle out their directions with only minimal pictures.
Update: got this guy up and running, seems to be pretty strong. So strong in fact that it kept tripping my circuits. I have 220 in the garage so I rewired it. It was my first time rewiring a machine and it was a bit of a struggle. The manual does provide one wiring diagram, and I missed one subtle but important detail: there is a switch on the control panel to switch it from 115 to 220. It is called on the diagram but only very subtlety. Missing this, I powered it on. Luckily it only blew a tiny fuse which I was able to find a replacement for at my local big box store. Also I got some heavy duty 12 awg wire cord (20 feet) changing the wire out was a bear too it has a plastic grommet that i essentially had to crack to get the old wire out. But now that it's up and running it works pretty darn good.
Other complaints I read are valid, yes this guy is super loud, and yes the remote range is limited and requires direct line of sight. But for this price this is a solid value. After getting past the setup I would buy this again. The nice castor wheels are a great value. Most tools up charge you for a mobility kit.
The unit has more suction than the Delta unit I replaced and is quieter. I really like the remote start/stop feature and use it almost exclusively. The metal canister on top is very effective at removing dust when compared to the Delta unit I had replaced. There is a noticeable decrease in the amount of sawdust in the shop at the end of the day.
