Bought this yesterday to vacuum water in carpeting from a leak. Got it home only to discover you can’t vacuum up water without buying a $20 wet filter which is not included in box. Also bags to catch dry particles such as sawdust not included. Now need to make another run to the store.

Replaced my old 16 gallon shop vac. This shop vac has plenty of power to pick up nails and make all the sawdust and other debris disappear. Great in the car also. Have had mine for five years and still goin strong. Just bought one for a Christmas present for family because I knew it would be well received, and it was.
