I have a warehouse that I cannot vent the laser outside. We tried the extractor that Monport suggested and sold us. It removed the smoke but the entire warehouse smelled like smoke. The XL-500 took care of that by about 95%. You still get a slight smell. If you have a bigger laser like our Monport 60w you will have to get a few extra items. We got 90 degree connections so the hose would not kink. Plus we had to get different size connectors due to the hose being too big for the back of the extractor.

This is a great unit for indoor use. We are thinking of putting a Y connector on the hose to hook it up to our 2nd laser. We don't plan on running both at the same time as we use them for different things.

I pierce many of my woodturnings with a high speed dental tool. The process makes both fine particle dust and smoke/fumes. I needed a small, powerful system to clean the air and keep my lungs safe. The Fumeclear fits the job perfectly.

The XL-300 is awesome. I use it with a Aeon Mira 7 when cutting acrylic, wood and eva foam and it traps all the smoke and fumes. IT is also strong enough to pull all the fumes and particles when using my Monport 20 watt fiber laser. I really like how easy it is to change the filters and the fact that I just need to change a single filter at a time, no need to replace the entire set each time. The variable speed control is also a nice feature. I was reluctant to spend money on a "real" fume extractor like the FumeClear, but I'm happy I did rather than compromise on one of the underpowered units sold for a couple hunder bucks on Amazon.

This Machine is Amazing it does exactly what I needed to take a way the monomer smell and nail dust away. My sinuses are much better now! This was the best investment I've had made in my career!

This Fumeclear fume extractor saved our laser cutting operation. The building design did not allow us to vent outside, and this unit effectively clears thick smoke and eliminates harsh, burnt odors right at the source, allowing us to run our laser indoors without compromising on air quality or safety.

I searched around a lot before getting this unit but I'm glad I did I upscaled to future proof my laser cutting on my h2c and my UV printer this unit can handle the fumes from both with ease come with a handy remote so you can adjust as needed from you workstation. When using for UV ink fumes it's amazing I don't have to wear a full respirator anymore as this keep my work area safer and a lot less smelly UV fumes and epoxy fumes no longer are a problem. Also on a side note the website for ordering extra parts and such is also very user friendly so I'm happy with that as well. This unit fits under the table when not in use as well it perfect height and actually pretty quiet for an extraction device.

Purchased the filters for the FC-1001A and they have performed as expected. The filter appear to be of high quality. I use this with my laser engraver and it does a very effective job of removing smoke. Shipping from fumeclear was quick. I had questions and they responded quickly to my email.

Purchased the FC-2004 when noticing smoke and fumes not being completely removed by the fan on engraver. The FC-400 completely removes both, even doing cutting that creates lots of smoke.

I am an owner of a laser cutter and a complete 3d resin print setup (printer, washing and curing) and since my current set up does not have window ventilation, this unit was key for a filtration system. The lowest setting works well with the fume tent my 3d print setup resides in. While the more powerful settings works well with laser cutting a variety of materials. The unit is heavy, but the wheels work great on my work mat or bare floors. The weight comes from the two HEAVY carbon filters doing their job of filtration. I enjoy the flexibility of moving the unit around instead of having to move everything close to a window which has been my past experience. I even found myself using the unit when pouring IPA outside of the fume tent and the hose is awesome for directing to any position and holding that position without support. Overall, the unit is easy to use and setup. Yes, it does make a bit of noise at it’s lowest setting but the noise is equal or a bit less that my indoor dehumidifier. At it highest setting the noise is quite loud so be mindful of that for your work space. Saying all this, the unit is overkill for just a 3d printer so you can buy a weaker model, but if you have a laser cutter as well this is your best bet. Really impressed and would strongly recommend.

I don't have much space available in my desk and i needed a fume extractor for when i am soldering the working area is abit limited but the unit is compact and fits ontop on my desk behind my 2 screens. It needs to be accessible for the power button and speed control because the unit doesn't have any remote capability Overall im happy with my purchase

Great portable Extractor - easy to use, reliable and robust.
We are regualrly at events supplying laser engraving services and this unit provides us with consistent fume extraction at all occassions.
Easy to pack into vehicle and compact but wil great build quality.

The device is simple, straight forward. Fits easily on top of a desk with various suction force settings. Great price point and great device so far.

Great extraction for soldering work — I typically run it at around 80% and that’s plenty. Best results if you keep it within about 150mm of your work area.

I expected the noise at maximum to be more noticeable, but honestly it doesn’t bother me at all. The IR remote is good for my needs, though a proper wireless (RF) remote might have been even better since IR needs line of sight.

Well built unit overall — metal construction that should last a long time. I found the perfect spot for it under my desk (see pictures). When it’s not in use, I just move the hose to a vertical position out of the way.

We have been using this machine in the production of one of our products, a facial powder cleanser, and it has definitely exceeded our expectations! It does an excellent job of controlling airborne powder and keeping our workspace cleaner throughout the process. Highly recommend!

I bought it for my xTool M1 Ultra. It works great but it isn't enough to remove the smell completely.

I'd still recommend it!
