Summary: It Works Fine As Long As You Don't Pull Too Hard
Comment: This adapter works fine with my Bosch 6" random orbital sander. I pretty much leave it permanently attached to the sander. When I need to put it, I simply plug in the Bosch extension hose from the shop vaccum into it. The extension hose will stay put as long as I don't pull too hard on it (like when there is no more slack in the hose and I still keep on pulling). I recommend it for using it with Bosch products that are compatible with it.

Summary: Bosh RS006 Vacuum Adapter
Comment: Perfect fit for my Orbital Sander. I use it all the time now when I sand to help cut down the dust that normally goes everywhere. The nice part is I can even use it with my portabe dewalt shop vac when I am at customers houses doing work so I don't have to bring my large shop vac.

Summary: Works great. Too bad it isn't included with the sanders.
Comment: I bought this for use with my reconditioned Bosch random orbit sander, the 2-handed one for about $100. It works like magic. Without this, even with a high grade paper filter bag, the dust escapes from the side of the sanding disc. With this, NO dust escapes from my shop vac. As a matter of fact, I have to use settings 4-6 on the sander. The suction is so strong, it sucks the sander down to the workpiece and slows the sander down a bit. It works as advertised. Do lubricate the O-ring with a little oil from the side of your nose, and it isn't such a tight fit.

Summary: Why didn't it come with this in the first place?
Comment: I wish it came with the adapter in the first place! Dewalt had their built in, I hope Bosch changes theirs soon. Work fine, and it wasn't too expensive.

Summary: You Need an Adapter for this Adapter...
Comment: I'm very disappointed in Bosch for the design of this product. This "adapter" will not adapt to anything you have in your workshop, such as a standard 1-1/4" ShopVac hose. It adapts to 35mm. But worse, the product description that Bosch provides does not describe the product at all. No dimensions are given!
If I had *known* that I needed an adapter for this adapter, I would have ordered it at the same time, since the price is less than what it costs to ship. I was able to get this adapter to work by going to my local Woodcraft store and buying an inexpensive vac hose multi-adapter which has stepped diameters. (You just cut it to fit the two parts you're trying to mate.)
Bottom-line: Bosch should *include* a vac adapter with their sanders (I would rather pay a couple extra dollars), and that adapter should be appropriate for the market they're selling in (i.e., North America vs. Europe/Asia). Poor design, poor marketing. I would have thought Bosch could do better.
