Big Time Saver
Much larger capacity than my vacuum. Using the thicknesser generates a lot of waste. In the past this meant emptying the vacuum and cleaning its filter a number of times, usually when it became over full. My filter is now always clean giving maximum suction from the vacuum. The filter in the bucket generally clears by giving it a tap or two on the lid. Good seal on the lid. Only criticism is that the central hose could be a bit longer but I got round this and now have a much better system for all my workshop. Made a real difference!

Significant improvement
This collection bucket is great enhancement to my existing dust collector. And a very economical way to increase capacity.

Just a nifty piece of equipment
You can read about all kind of saw dust collectors and cyclones to build yourself on Youtube, but the Triton saw dust collector is just a nifty, easy to use piece of equipment every workshop needs. Two ports to help you hook up your equipment make it very easy to use. This thing is just good for your health.
And besides, I saved enough on dust bags for my shop vac to earn the cost of the dust collector back in no time.

very efficient
I've had mine for a few weeks now, how did I manage before! well clogged vacuum cleaner's are a thing of the past. I use mine primarily out and about; it's very good for plaster dust too, general working environments and I don't have to lug around big vacuum cleaners, a small cylinder is all I need now. Cleaning is easy and the only draw back is attaching brushes or nozzles, I'm looking for alternate end hose adaptors, but I still highly recommend the dust bucket.

The Perfect All-rounder
I have been struggling for quite a while now using a general purpose workshop vacuum for dust collection with very limited success. Works well on some and not at all on others. As we say in the UK - seems to be a problem with the wrong sort of dust ! Look around at available dust extraction systems and they all want to sell you two pieces of kit - one for dust collection and the other for chip extraction (planers and the like).
Not any more. My new Triton Collector Bucket does it all and efficiently and cheaply at that. By placing it between the dust / chip source and the vacuum, it removes all strain and pressure form the vacuum itself. As a result, my vacuum now does not clog up every five minutes and hardly ever needs emptying. Open the lid of the bucket and you can see a layer of fine dust from sander or saw sitting comfortably atop a layer of chippings from the planer. Superb !
I cannot fault the design or the implementation. The filter is of good quality - it prevents the dust from reaching the vacuum but does not do so to the detriment of suction power. The connections are easy but effective - no awkward stiffness but none fall out during use.
A limited amount of Heath Robinson here and there to effect a good connection with a range of dust sources ( from 38mm up to 100mm) and you have a single solution for all your machines.
Well done Triton ! I am happy to recommend this product to all.

Very useful product
I found that this product collects a vast amount of dust, and is easy to use, extremely useful! It is an essential product whilst completing woodworking as it keeps my workshop clean and works efficiently. The product comes with both a short and long hose, both convenient and both prevent clogging. There is good suction. Also as the bucket is see through it shows you exactly how much dust gets collected – which is a lot! It has been a great addition to my workshop.
