4.0 out of 5 stars Save time cleaning up!, February 10, 2002

DeWalt Planers do an excellent job but they do spit out a mess. If you are building a house or in a workshop it is really not a problem but if you are just planing a door, instead of rehanging it, in a finished house wood chips will go all over and make a huge mess. This dust bag catches all the large planed shavings but small dust particles will still escape but isn't so hard to clean up. Sure beats their chop saw dust bag which is totally worthless.

Downfall is that it doesn't fold down and so it will not fit in the metal storage case the planer comes in without taking it apart.

It's great to have a dust bag for your planer since they spray shavings halfway across the room. This is a must if you want to plane a door inside. It works great and fits inside the case of my DW680K planer. It's big, about6"X6"X3", but it does fit inside the case of my new DW680. It has a zippered bag and wire frame that you have to assemble with 4 screws, but it's easy and quick. Would be nice if it folded flat, but it has a wire box frame. When I was shopping for a planer, this was the only one I found that even offered a dust bag. For 20 bucks, it's worth it. Took Amazon a month to finally ship it though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Should be part of the Planer package, February 18, 2007

I tried using the Planer w/o the dust bag - not prudent! The planer works great, but the dust bag is a must have. It worked as described. It should be part of the planer case and tools, espeially because the cost is minimal. It does fit in the case. The only issue I have with DW power tools is the different adapters that are needed to attach the dust bags. Mine slipped off at some point & I had to replace it vs. just having the bag slide on. Same with the 12" Sliding Miter saw. Great tools in my opinion, just not consistent design.
