BOSCHVAC090AH Portable 9 Gallon Dust Extractor with Auto Filter Clean and HEPA Filter

The Bosch dust extractor is an absolute powerhouse! Its suction power is nothing short of impressive, effortlessly tackling even the finest dust particles with ease. It's a remarkable value for money, given its exceptional performance and the peace of mind it offers for a clean workspace. What's equally noteworthy is its remarkably low noise level, making it a pleasant and quieter addition to my workshop. The only exception is the filter unclogging tapping sound it makes about every 30 seconds, a feature which can be disabled via a button. Bosch has truly outdone themselves with this dust extractor, and it has quickly become an indispensable tool in my arsenal. If you're in search of a high-performing, cost-effective, and noise-conscious solution for dust extraction, this Bosch extractor deserves a resounding five-star rating.

I actually have two these, one lives permanently under and connected to my Bosch miter saw. The other roams around the shop cleaning up what ever needs cleaning. The auto activation feature is great. Automatically turns the vacuum on whenever you engage an attached power tool and shuts off a few seconds after the tool is powered off. I also use it to connect to my track saw, Kreg pocket hole jig and routers. Does a good job of keeping the dust and chips at bay.The auto filter clean system is a little noisy but it does a good job of keeping the filter clean. After having had several Craftsman shop vacs over the years that were in constant need of a good filter clean I will live with the noise.The only negative comment I have is that one would think given the price of these things Bosch would include a full set of attachments.

Thoroughly impressed by this vac. I had a very cheap 30$ shop vac, and what a difference a good tool makes. It's quieter and has 2x of air flow which affects how much dust it collects.It also pretty smart device, when I removed the HEPA filter, thinking I can preserve it for the jobs outdoor - nope, it reduced power 2-3 times and disabled reverse automatic filter cleaning. Had to put it back.

We're a Bosch family. Our master shower needed to be replaced and that meant a lot of dust in a room that has no windows we could open for airflow. We bought this along with a new angle grinder and a few other tools that attached to the dust extractor in the hopes that it would cut back on the crap in the air. It worked pretty much flawlessly. We had to cut fiberglass, drywall, grind thinset, and much more. It picked up 99% or more of the dust.It does "Thump" every 30 seconds or so to clean the filter but you can turn that off. Another cool feature is being able to plug your power tool into the vacuum and have it turn on with the tool (it'll "thump" right before it shuts off - I kept thinking somebody was knocking on my door).It was expensive but one of those "you get what you pay for" kind of tools.This won't replace a shop-vac because it's pretty much for just collecting dust your tools are creating but it's definitely worth buying if you are grinding thinset off of an interior floor or having to do any kind of cutting inside.

Clean projects = happy clients.Auto "on" tool plug-in feature very nice, not having to turn the vac on and off with tool operation a real plus. Unit not terribly loud (as compared to my old ridgid and DW) and has plenty of suction. I dont care for the cord storage and wish it had on board storage for attachements without buying the additonal storage box. I did buy the 16' hose and am glad on that and would recommend. Bags are inexpensive and the filtration on them is amazing. Self cleaning feature must work pretty well. I performed a lot of drywall sanding and clean up and filled the bag at least 1/3 before changing it.

I was back and forth on purchasing this vacuum, due to the price. I paired this with the concrete polisher/grinder to take out high spots in my basement floor. It took about 10 minutes to knock off the peak at the joint. Very little dust was not captured, but was able to be sucked up afterwards.Very well made product as you would expect from Bosch.

After owning shopvacs and ridgid this is in a whole other league. I can't believe how well the filter cleaning works. I bought this after my ridgid vac kept getting it's filter clogged during a bathroom remodel. I was griding thinset off the concrete and my ridgid vac filter was getting completely clogged after 30 minutes even with cyclone dust separator inline.Out of necessity I bought a vacuum with the automatic clean feature. I debated tether to get the festool, fein or bosch. I am very happy with the Bosch having other Bosch tools I knew it would be designed well and have good support.The hepa filter give me the piece of mind that I am not spewing fine dust over my whole house with each use. I now use this vacuum to clean out all my other vacuums in the house and in the garage since it never clogs up.

Finally stepped up & paid the $$. Glad I did. Grinded my entire basement & no concrete dust in the air at all. Very pleased with the performance! Filled two bags in two hours with concrete dust. No problems at all. Unit will let you know when its full. It will just kick off. Empty it out, change the bag and fire it right back up.
