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

Positives- Good suction and blowing capability. Use for cleaning up woodworking tools.- Click lock attachments eliminates hose pull out- Good power-to-weight ratio- Good on-tool storage of attachmentsNegatives (minor)- Hose connections a bit sticky, but better than loose later on- Electrical cord storage could have better design, but adequate- Wheels could be better/larger: this is a common ailment of most products these daysThey replaced 3-layer filter with 1-layer because of Covid demand for the former. Included one bag with purchase. Have not used it, since I had too many wood shavings and it would have filled multiple bags. Overall happy with product. 5 stars since almost everything has a average rating of 4 stars.

I use these vacuums both at the job, in shop setting and at home and they never seem to fail and let me down. Must have, well priced, must buy. Also there lifetime warranty is pretty good if you register it online. Can’t beat it

Great suction bought to clean out gutters .

Powerful. Blower knocked me off balance first time. Vacuumed the leaves out of our gutters without any issue.
Abbey Schiller (verified owner) –
A little assembly required. It would be nice not to need to do that when you want to use it out of the box. Averaged over the 15 years it ought to last that’s not bad, really, but when you buy it to use NOW, well…

Easy installation and use; great purchase !
Raina Rohan (verified owner) –
Purchased new. Much better suction than any model tried /owned previously. Like the interlock to keep hide parts from separating.
Lonie Kerluke (verified owner) –
This Shop Vac is a Christmas present. Therefore we have not had a chance to try it. It would be nice if it included a muffler and a brush as many other units do.
