This thing has major suction power and a high flow volume to match it! Comes with the attachments most would need in a shop vac and quickly converts to a blower. Excellent value for the price! Only thing i would change is the length of hose that comes with it. It would be nice to not have to move the vacuum around as I clean out my truck. Highly recommend this vacuum! And recommend buying a longer hose if you have a large truck.

This is my second ridgid shop vac and I do not regret a thing. It’s very quiet compared to my smaller 1 7/8 vaccum also by ridgid. The hose fit my planer and table saw almost perfectly. The cord is really nice and long so is the hose. The detachable blower is a great feature which can be used with the hose or the blower nozzle they both work great. I do not have any complaints and totally reccomend it.

Big yet Maneuverable – Its’ a monstrous Machine, very powerful & quiet. Love the detachable blower for cleaning the patio and blowing leaves off the lawn (including wet leaves). Easy to assemble as well. We’re very happy with our new Rigid NXT. We definitely recommend it. Zee

The vacuum was quite easy to assemble. I had read that there were some issues attaching the wheels, but I used a rubber mallet and they went in with ease. The vacuum works great. The attachments go on rather simply and provide valuable options for different messes. I have yet to use the blower, but looking forward to it. Keep in mind that I’ve only had the product for a little over a month, so I can’t speak to durability over a long period of time. I will update this review or submit another review should this become an issue.

Have not used it yet, we just have taken the unit out of the box. As far as functioning we haven’t had a chance to use it. It looks good and came out of the box great.

Only problem is that the tube is easily disconnected from the body.Have to push can’t pull.

The vacuum has ample suction to handle the job. The hose and its attachments are difficult to assemble. The hoses need better design and manufacturing control.
