High quality product. You get your money’s worth with this product especially with the lifetime warranty. The vacuum has a lot of power and on top of that it’s quieter than my previous 10 gal shop vac. I also like how well it stores and the tires make it a whole lot easier.

I have owned several wet/dry vacs over the years and use them to their extremes at work and home. This 16 gallon Ridgid vac has been the best one to hold up and perform. It has a high 203 CFM and is very quiet. Easy to maneuver and very durable.

When I started working at a car dealership I was introduced to one of these vacuums. I had to buy one for myself and I absolutely love having a shop vac in my garage. I can use it to vacuum debris and vacuum out my car! Hopefully this vacuum will last me many many years!!

The vacuum is great very pleased with it but you people really need to rethink your tubes and attachments about the way they connect to one another there very hard to get on and after you force them you play he’ll getting them unconnected if it wasn’t for that I’d rate this the highest I could please redesign this.

vacuumed. Bought this acumen to use with a dust collector bucket. It works great separating solids and dust to prevent the clogging of the vacuumed filter. A cost effective dust collector gor a small garage shop.
