Replaced a 30 year old shop vac. This new unit is very lightweight and powerful in comparison. Very satisfied.

Received this as a Christmas gift. Does an ok job, not the greatest suctuion and only comes with 1 tool. Not the vac I would have bought for myself.

The better half got this for me so I don’t have to lug the big shop vac up and down stairs to use in various places. This model is compact, powerful and easy to carry. Great design!

Everything works well, I would like it better if there was a better way to attach the tools

Great little vac for cleaning vehicles and workshop. I purchased the car cleaning accessory kit separately, and it is well worth it.

I really like the vac it picks up everything, but I wish the hose attachment was adjustable so it is easier to sit flat on the floor, this is a good product ……

It is light and does a great job. It is strong. The drive up pickup was fast and efficient. The price was right and the product is wonderful.

Perfect small compact size for house hold projects. Whether its a small drwall patch, mess at the back door, or spilt pet food. Not bulky and easy to maneuver around. Keep it ip ridgid!

Big enough to get the job done and small / light enough to get into a lot of places . Doesn’t take up a lot of storage space.

This is my second RIDGID shop vac & I must say I like it better than my 14 Gal. You can pull this sucker all across the house and it works just as well as the larger capacity versions. The one thing drawback to the 6 Gal. (which seems to be a common theme as I read this in many reviews prior to purchasing) is the short length of the power cord. Overall great shop vac & I would definitely recommend.
