Yes it’s worth it imo. It’s quiet, compact and sucks. You’ll want to run it with a bigger battery for extended use. I use mine to clean my vehicles as well as attached to my miter and table saw to help with dust and chip collection. The deal with the free tool u can hack it by returning said free tool and take home the vac for like $108. If u don’t need the battery pick the impact driver to maximize your savings on the vac.

I have the dewalt flexvolt 12” miter saw so I can’t say for the Milwaukee one. But it helps and makes a difference. Obviously it won’t suck everything but it’s pretty good as long as I’m not cutting wide boards

Not cheap but a wonderful portable vac. We use it for cars and also cleaning up little messes around the house. It is perfect for vacuuming out dusty computers too: [https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-0880-20-Cordless-Lithium-Ion-Gallon/dp/B07FB26QRD/ref=sr\_1\_6?sr=8-6](https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-0880-20-Cordless-Lithium-Ion-Gallon/dp/B07FB26QRD/ref=sr_1_6?sr=8-6) We have had ours for 3 years now and it is holding up great.

Awesome vacuum, it's so small and easy to carry around the truck and has amazing suction. It's better than it should be for its size

I just got one, it’s great. Cleaned the cars and dust after hanging curtains. I went with the packout although I don’t have packout stuff in case I get into that. The only complaint I have is there is no bristle brush. What does everyone buy for more accessories? I was looking at the harbor freight detail kit, curious what would work from Amazon.

I use packout vacuum, cordless Ridgid shopvac (discontinued),and the m18 shopvac all with bags and filters removed. HD and Amazon sell bags for all kinds of vacuums. I install cabinets so packout is on my tracksaw. M18 on mitersaw, and Ridgid on m18 tablesaw.. I sweep and use m18 and Ridgid because they have more volume . I bolted on a crate on top of my m18 for packout compatibility (before the packout vacuum was released)...crate holds accessories and the hose.

I had this exact deal but with an extra battery. It's a good deal regardless. Just a question where you" need" another 5ah or not. https://preview.redd.it/3e0s7kvubpsf1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=69f3efa625969d7965f1247f29388bc2f7d92b6b
