I have owned two of these and they work very well for small spindle style turnings. The flip shield keeps shavings from flying into my body/face and helps to redirect the shavings into the airflow. Mounting is easy by using 4 3/4 rare earth magnets. Allows me to move it easily, but holds very firmly.
My only complaint is with the long term quality. The reason I have owned 2, and will need to get a third soon, is because it tends to break where the mounting bracket meets the plastic hood part after 6 months or so.

I have found that this dust collection hood works very well. It takes a little planning when setting it up for use like extending the tail stock support out to give more clearance for your tool rest and I use a flexible work light that can be placed low & to the rear to keep glare off of the clear fold down shield as seen in the photo. The dust collection is concentrated & works well. I made a wooden bracket that is easy to slide back & forth & more convienent to use on longer turnings.
