Purchased new. Much better suction than any model tried /owned previously. Like the interlock to keep hide parts from separating.

I can see how the bag could get ripped pressing the cardboard collar onto the inlet tube. I started by loosening the center punched area before sliding it on. I’m combining the two filters in a Ridgid HD1400 so that I cut down on my clean up. I’m hoping that the bag holds up to the debris I throw at it. I have had other brand bags explode during use in smaller vacs but it’s gotta be better then doing the clean up I’m used to with this one. Giving it four stars because of the potential of ripping the bag while attaching it to the inlet tube.

It’s a great machine, the suction is great. Need to get all the parts for it. I don’ the plan on using it as a wet vac, as I use a bag inside. But you never know if I’ll need the wet vac. Thankyou. Robert

This vacuum is well built and doing a great job for removing water when necessary!

I bought this unit for light car detailing and for rug vacuuming, expecting this thing to be alright but noisy and hard to maneuver.Man was I wrong, this vacuum may be quieter than your house vac! Its pretty powerful, but it does diminish a tiny bit after using it for awhile. BUT!After closer examination I did see that the harsh right angle on the inlet of the hose when it reaches the tub can have paper and other rubbish hang on to, and after clearing that, the suction power seemed to get much better. All in all its a great option, if a little spendy.

plenty of power like my older ridgid….but man is loud with a diffuser, like 3 generations vacs ago. bag is very tough to install. prefer my old one for quiet operations..

Both my sons have this shop vacuum and are very pleased so it was an easy decision to get one for my husband for Christmas!

I should have done some more research before this purchase. Dust bags are stupid expensive. Should have gone back to Shop Vac. My old one lasted 16 years with NO dust bag,

I wasn’t sure if these would fit my shop vac because it was a different brand, but they fit perfectly. Great for vacuuming fine dust on our renovation.

Great suction. Light weight, easy to assemble and use.

I bought this for my wood shop about a month ago. I wanted something small enough to tuck in the corner but big enough that I wasn’t emptying it every other day. I also attach this to my miter saw and rotary saw almost daily and it does the job well (I purchased the attachment separately). The sucking power will pull saw dust from across my work table so no complaints there either. All in all it’s exactly what I wanted and I’m happy with the product.
Celestino Mitchell (verified owner) –
The long cord was an added benefit. I used this for my table saw and 12″ miter saw. Made a big, big difference compared to my craftsman wet and dry vac. It was recommended to me from someone I work with. Glad I took his advice.

This is the best shop vacuum that I have ever used. It is exceptionally powerful and I have connected it to my dust collection and it easily serves two saws and a router.
Brando King (verified owner) –
This vac is hooked up to our CNC router table. Sucking up acrylic and aluminum shavings. It gets used 8 hours a day for 5 days a week. Ridgid is very durable for an affordable price.

bag filters really well but it tears easily around the area where it slides onto the nossel when removed and reinstalled a few times when bag is not full

Works great keeps shop clean
Tyra Hagenes (verified owner) –
Works as advertised. Expensive for what it is but it’s better than constantly cleaning out the filter.
Rosa Harvey (verified owner) –
This wet/dry vacuum does the job. It exceeded my expectations. It is a workhorse. Just what I needed!
Blanca Goldner (verified owner) –
Good way to keep the dust off the filter and vacuum as well.. the only downside is that the edges of the bags are not very reliable and sometimes they brake they need to reinforce the edges where the fold. Other then that.. Good. Or. One mere thing. They are way to expensive now… they are changing close to 20 dollars for 2. That is ridiculous but. So far i need them till i get different brand of vacuum the will not require any of this bags expenses
