The 11 Gal. Wet/Dry HEPA Filter Dust Extractor/Vacuum (VC4210L) is a best-in-class solution for dust extraction in concrete and woodworking applications. The VC4210L is powered by a 12 AMP motor that generates 148 CFM of suction power and 92 In. of water lift to take on the most challenging applications. Designed with contractors in mind, the VC4210L combines power with less noise and less weight in a smaller footprint and is ideal for indoor and room-to-room applications. The motor chamber is constructed of quality sound-absorbing materials, delivering an operating sound level of only 60 dB(A). In addition, precision lightweight motor components and more efficient air ducting allowed Makita engineers to reduce the weight to only 35 lbs. For increased stability and easier maneuverability, the VC4210L has wide-set rear wheels and enlarged steel caster front wheels, which creates a lower center of gravity. The VC4210L features innovative Automatic Filter-Cleaning System and an efficient 2-stage filtration system with main Nano filters engineered to maximize the container volume and improve efficiency, while capturing 99.95% of particles size 2 microns and larger. The Certified-HEPA main filter captures 99.97% of particles size 0.3 microns and larger, which meets or exceeds the Department of Energy’s standard for HEPA filters.

As other users have noted, yes, the popping sound it makes is a little unsettling at first. I certainly don’t love that, but it’s how it is designed to work to keep the filter cleaned. I’ve found the performance of this dust extractor superior and since I have Makita’s track saw and miter saw with the dust collection ports, this is a great addition to my tool collection. It’s amazing how much saw dust it collects when using those saws. I actually use this to clean inside my house all the time instead of my Dyson because I love how well the floor cleaning attachment (sold separately) works. The suction is quite powerful on this machine and it also comes with all kinds of adapters. I’ve yet to find something I could hook this thing up to with all of them. I also find it’s not really that loud compared to others, a nice plus. The large 11 gallon capacity is nice, and you have different options for the bags you can go with, like a high quality reusable one. Overall, a great product if you’re willing to spend the money.

Vacuum does great for its size. The bags are easy to change. Its nice it comes mostly pre-assembled. Not to load either.

First the bad: yes it does “pop” every few minites depending on use, and it is expensive. But the good: the dust extraction is second to none, its easy to carry around, comes assembled and ready to use, and has all the adapters you’d ever need. A solid tool!
