The suction power is not very good.

I bought this to clean the garage because I don't like using my vacuum cleaner in the garage. Dirty. When I put the nozzle on, the suction power is quite weak. Much less than my vacuum cleaner. It confuses me that some people say the suction is great and others don't. Realizing that I don't need a shop vacuum also helped my decision to return it. I will only vacuum the garage and cars. Instead of a conventional vacuum cleaner, I opted for the Eureka 3670M floor cleaner. It meets my needs andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Zero

Not worth the money for large jobs

I bought this item with confidence in the Craftsman brand. However, the suction is okay (not great), the size is small (pictures can fool you about the size), very noisy (you need earbuds to use it for more than 2 or 3 minutes) and mine arrived without a few accessories as well as minor damage such as a bent mains plug. I've tried about 2 times and decided to go back to Revain. The price is too close for a large device that is much more powerful and offers much more storage. Maybe for a bit ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not sure

COMPLETE and TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT

I chose the Craftsman brand because I thought I was getting a high quality and durable product. Big mistake. The unit lacked screws to attach the handle, aligning the top with the bottom is tedious, the tubes/hoses/nozzles don't fit well and leak, and worst of all (or as a result) the suction power this thing offers is weaker than mine . 10+ year old Eureka Airspeed Gold upright which I bought this vacuum to replace. With or without an accessory, he had trouble lifting KITTY SWEEP! DRY KITTENโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Low repairability

DIFFICULT TO INSTALL into wet and dry vacuums

I assembled it today and turned it on for a TEST (excellent suction) but have not yet used it for its intended purpose - vacuuming a water leak in my basement. The worst assembly part is installing the ROLLER on the ROLLER LEGS. It takes a lot of effort to insert them. First DO NOT move the legs and then try to use the casters. I couldn't push hard enough. Instead, I put the rollers in the legs FIRST and then put them in the orange slots. ONLY WITH THE HELP OF THE TIS I COULD INSERT EACH ROLLER

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Decent device. The wider floor mount doesn't work at all, but others seem to work fine. The only reason I'm giving a rating or low stars at all is because I received the device with no screws to attach the handle. I figured it's ok, it says to contact them (the manufacturer) if any parts are missing. Well, it was necessary to return to unity in Revane. The number provided was wrong so I was redirected and then given another number to call. I've called 3 times already. They took all theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
