Do those units function as well as advertised? From the reading the reviews - it would seem as though there wouldn't be any dust laying on the stuff in the garage, only the sawdust to sweep up on the floor. Is that actually how it works, or is there still a substantial amount of cleaning to do afterwards?

I just got done wiping more junk than I knew was in my garage, and $300 would be cheap to never do this again....

Thanks,

Zach
Zach, I don't own one personally but I will do so eventually. My understanding is that these work well for your purpose. Keeps the fine dust from settling on everything. Turn it on when you start to work and leave it on for 1/2 and hour after your done and you should have little to no dust at all. They work real well in tandem with a dust control unit. I will ask my buddy Bernie, he has one I believe and uses it when he turns ( sanding when turning really kicks up some dust) and see how it is working for him.
