You need these with your PC Vacuum. December 7, 2008
I love my 2 Porter Cable vacuums, and this tool set is very useful with them. The tools are very serviceable and last a long time if you avoid driving over them. Here are my rather minor complaints: The tubes tend to stick together after the joints get dusty and worked against each other. Regularly clean the joints whenever you separate them, and avoid excessively pushing them together. A plastic insert in one end of the tube is the part that gets worn. The thin metal tube will wear on its leading edge if you rub it against concrete as you vaccuum.
The wide floor tool has a squeegee in it, not a brush, so it works well when picking up spills. To my surprise it also works well for dust on concrete and wood floors. The crevasse tool works as one would expect. The long brush has bristles that I find to be too stiff, and the angle the hose enters the brush is not at all ergonomic.
Porter cable greatly improved their vacuum models over the first model (which I also own) but they have made no noticeable change in this tool set
Works great. Additional info and tips January 12, 2008
I purchased the accessory kit when I bought the 7810 vacuum several years ago and have been very satisfied.
Not mentioned in the product description, the floor tool comes with two sets of inserts (at least when I bought it), one for dry and one for wet. No instructions, but with a little thinking the grooves on the wet inserts need to be facing outwards on both front and back. After you use it for wet work, separate the metal tubes and let them dry or they will get stuck together (a bit of wax on the metal parts where they mate might help with this).
Besides in the shop, I do all the household vacuuming with these accessories. The floor tool does not work well on carpet (not designed for it and I don't have any), but does an excellent job on hardwood floors and tile. I also use them when scrubbing the tile floors in the kitchen and bathrooms to suck up the soapy water, then again after rinsing with clean water.
Nice Goods June 29, 2007
My shop is in my basement, so two things are of paramount importance: controlling the dust and minimizing the noise. This does both beautifully. As you will see, you do not have to make a lot of noise to move air. Also, your best opportunity to contol fine dust is at the source so being able to hook up a good vacuum to your sander, biscuit jointer, router, etc. is essential. For a vacuum that is at least an order of magnitude cheaper than the european "dust extractors" it works great. The only reason it does not get five stars (and it should) is that there is no on-board storage for the cord, hose, and other accessories.
include the step adapter! August 12, 2005
This would be a perfect product if they included the step adapter for various tools. Charging another $17 for the small adapter is a little much, but otherwise this accessory makes a great shop vacuum fantastic.
 GREAT ACCESSORY KIT!! June 20, 2001

I have an older model Porter Cable vacuum. (model #7810) After having the vacuum for a while, I liked it so much that I wanted to get an accessory kit so that I could do a few more things with it than just using it primarily as a dust collector for my sander. I bought the 78110 accessory kit about three months ago, and since then have been completely satisfied with it. The thing I like most about it is that it has metal extensions rather than just plastic extensions like many of the other competitors. The different brushes and wands have enabled me to use this for a ton of different applications ranging from vacuuming my car to cleaning up some of my furniture. Overall, this has been a great investment for me! Great job Porter Cable!
