Review on ๐Ÿงน VP205 Vacmaster Gallon Portable Vacuum by Dang Esq

Revainrating 3 out of 5

mainly for household messes like spilled cat litter and flakes

I've been using it for 9 months, mainly for household messes like spilled cat litter and flakes. It replaced a similarly sized small shop vacuum and HP. It has less suction power so it takes me longer to clean all those corners. Not bad, but there is one major design flaw. See the vent above? This is your vent. The vent faces down and to the hose, to the FRONT of the unit. So if you turn the device forward, which is how I think most people would use it, the air is actually blowing in the direction of the dust/clutter you're trying to clean up by dispersing it around the room. After a few setbacks, I realized that if I didn't want to clutter the room (turning the device back effectively shortens the hose), I had to rotate the device backwards and hold it there when using it. , too.) It's uncomfortable. So I'll use it until it wears out, but I wouldn't buy another one like that. The vent is very poorly placed.
