Good suction power in wet and dry vacuum cleaners

I bought this for general cleaning in my basement, I didn't want to struggle up and down the stairs with my big vacuum cleaner, I have an old house with a slab foundation so there is a lot of dust around the edges and corners, it worked great it even collected things i hadn't thought of i was very impressed how it sucked up cobwebs my only suggestion is to get a second filter so you can vacuum one and have another in the vacuum cleaner clean filter has a big one Value, it's a smaller vacuum…

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Something else

Well designed power tools

Well designed and powerful. You can use bags or not. Lightweight and easy to carry. Nonetheless. You cannot simply store the hose on the device. It's possible to do this, but it doesn't really work well. There's also room for two "hard" hose extensions - each can be 30 inches long - but if you use these you end up not being able to stand the vacuum and have to store it on wheels so it takes up more space. Storage space than usual. Finally, there is a place on the vacuum cleaner to store the…

  • Cool product

  • Little things

LOVE on first use best in power tools

I have 2 huskies and hardwood floors. I love my dogs, but fur and dirt are terrible! When I bought this I was looking through 3 small handheld vacuums. I love it! The suction power is so strong that it pulls out the carpets! Picks up hair and dirt in one go. The power cord is long enough that I don't need an extension cord. My home is a 1200 square foot ranch. The suction hose is long and allows me to maneuver freely. The car itself follows me, it doesn't tip over even on a cable, but simply…

Good suction power, easy assembly.

Meets expectations for my 10 year home renovation project. I restore old surfaces, doors, windows by careful scraping and sanding. My old used Craftsman 6 gallon shop vacuum, at least 30 years old, is finally making a noise I can't correct. I have invested in 3 filters including HEPA and was happy to see that it uses the same size filter! I installed it a few minutes ago and it sucks better than the old one. I will not attach wheels as I use them on a bench or on doors when resting on the…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak

Still a great choice

I have an old model of this 4 gallon model and love it. But it's getting old and I wanted another one for the store. The best thing about them is the suction power and long cord, and they'll follow you around the house without tipping over like a floor-standing model can. Most other small models will not give you 5 hp. They changed a few things and in my opinion nothing has changed for the better. I read many reviews and some said it's not worth buying. Don't listen to these reviews. It's still

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
