Why dust extraction matters
Dust wastes time and money.
Every minute that you spend cleaning a job site is a minute that you're not doing more important work. If you didn't have to spend extra time cleaning up at the end of the day, how would you spend your time? Would you work on other projects? Would you get home to your family earlier? You certainly wouldn't spend it sweeping out your work site.
Dust is bad for your health.
Dust contains toxins and is hazardous for your health. According to the Center for Disease Control, long-term exposure to wood dust can cause a wide variety of serious respiratory issues. Your health is too important to be jeopardized by something as small as dust.
Dust is unprofessional.
If you leave a mess for a client, you're not going to be invited back. What's more, dust particles can hang in the air for hours or even days. Imagine how pleased your customers will be if you're able to guarantee that their homes will remain dust-free during a project.

The sander is almost vibration-free. It is hard to believe how much nicer it is to use this tool than any of the ones I used previously. The soft start makes it very easy to control on start up and when it is switched off the sanding pad stops almost immediately, which makes it much quicker to move the project or start on another. The near absence of vibration makes the sander a delight to use. after spending almost an hour straight sanding, my hands were not tired and my fingers were not tingling.
In addition to the excellent dust collection and ease of use, the sander produces excellent results. I make small boxes and other items that are intended to be handled and touched. I am very picky about the finish I put on my work and this sander leaves the wood as smooth as a baby's butt. There are no traces of sanding lines or circles and I couldn't be happier with the results.
Festool dealers should set these up for customers to test - they would sell themselves. This is a very clear example of getting what you pay for. I only wish I had not waited so long to make the purchase. If you need a new sander, buy this one.
As usual Festool price tag is high.
But performs very well and I am satisfied. Meets Festool Expectations.
Can't wait to get some more of these tools.
I don't have the Festool dust extractor by I found that me CPAP hose connects to this thing with a hose clamp and HD has an adapter for a 2.25" hose that the CPAP hose fits into. This was my only concern about buying this way too expensive ROsander. Thanks honey for the birthday present 😚
