Works well but needs a taller handle or dolly

It works fine but moving it has to be done by dragging it by the hose and you have to carry it down flights of stairs. It would benefit greatly by having a dolly so that one side would have wheels and a taller handle to be able to tilt it and rolling it down stairs, step by step and not have to bend over and carry it down.

Pros
  • Power Tools
Cons
  • Not effective for cleaning carpets

It’s a great shop vac.

I’m not sure what to say about it as it’s a pretty standard shop vac. It probably does better than most, and it comes with plenty of attachments to get the job done. The extra long power cord really helps out a lot, too. I’d say 4.5/5 as it could have been a little more quiet, but just wear ear protection and you’re good.

Pros
  • EXTRA-LONG POWER CORD: 20 ft. power cord provides reach for most chores and wraps neatly around ergonomic, carry handle for storage
Cons
  • Cord management system is not efficient

This vacuum SUCKS, literally.

Opened the box, assembled the minor parts and put this vacuum to use cleaning out the minivan. It sucked up the dirt and road salt with ease. Kids old applesauce propeller lid, sucked it up. Diesel soaked Speedidri from garage floor, gone. Wet leaves near edge of garage door, gone. Basically this vacuum sucked up everything I wanted it to. It’s awesome and I would buy it this again without hesitation. I can’t wait to use with camper and boat maintenance, keeping the garage and basement floor…

Pros
  • The powerful 6 peak HP motor ensures impressive suction and cleaning performance
Cons
  • No wet-dry filter bag option

Best craftsman shop vac we have ever owned!

This vacuum rolls very easily across our shop floor and has a nice tall handle on it too maneuver it around. All 3 of us our 6’ 2” and is nice not to have to bend way over just to get ahold of it too move. The accessories bag on the handle is a great addition! Only reason we replaced our old craftsman shop vacuum was because it got ran over by one of our large farm tractors! Probably the best accident that had happened! Great update!

Pros
  • The large 12-gallon capacity allows for extended cleaning time without frequent emptying
Cons
  • Lacks robust durability

Worth the extra horsepower!

I gave it top rankings for suction because this thing will suck up anything not nailed to the floor. I went to work on my rooftop deck where there is a tall overhanging tree that left a seasons-worth of wet dead leaves in all the nooks and crannies, and because of the labor required to do that by hand, I never got around to it. With this vacuum, the whole job took me less than 10 minutes and it seemed to have mulched everything as well! No clogs, no hesitation. It just ate and asked for more!I…

Pros
  • This does what you need without failure. It is so powerful it threw a breaker in my house.
Cons
  • Clogs easily and requires frequent cleaning

Pros

Cons
  • Limited suction power for large messes

Powerful beast. in my review

I saw this in a YouTube video scoring the highest in many categories among other brands. I got it and it’s massive. The suction power is ridiculous. The accessories are huge too. This is more like for heavy-duty commercial work. For shops maybe. Businesses. But ideal for the house if you want the power. I do some car detailing for my own vehicles and this is ideal to pickup all the dust and debris. I hate dealing with weak vacuums. You can use it with a bag with ir in place of the filter to…

Pros
  • The onboard storage for attachments makes them easily accessible and organized
Cons
  • Attachments are fragile and prone to breaking

Wow great suction in my review

I purchased this for my woodworking area to hook up to saws etc. I have a vac master that I love and the hp is only slightly less than this and this has way better suction. It's just super bulky.

Pros
  • POWERFUL PERFORMANCE: 6.0 Peak HP and 12-gallon drum ideal for projects in the garage, on the jobsite, home renovations or floods
Cons
  • No variable suction control settings

Big, but powerful - my new review

What's the old joke - Your best bet is buying a vacuum that really sucks? Well, 6.5 HP is no joke. No suction problems here. Large capacity too. I'm really happy with this thing.

Pros
  • COMPATIBLE DUST BAGS: CMXZVBE38735 Genuine CRAFTSMAN Dust Bags
Cons
  • Dustbin is small, requires frequent emptying

Durability good for me

This is hard for me to use as I’m 73. Before I ordered this I bought one in 2007 and used it for everything. I believe it would have outlasted me but my daughter left it outside and someone stole it. So there was no hesitation to order another one. I loved the suction power (very much)…noise is loud but I expected that as it is such a powerful product…. my daughter lives with me so now she does those things that I’m unable to do….This is an excellent product and well worth every penny….thank…

Pros
  • Great shop vac
Cons
  • Bulky and takes up a lot of space
