Works great, easy to install

No leaks so far

Pros
  • Tube fittings
Cons
  • Available in white only

Affordable and durable

Unlike the larger Wetvac, this one does not have a drain hole. To empty the tank you have to remove the cap. So I added this fitting, a garden hose thread adapter and a garden hose valve to the side of the…

Pros
  • Partition Hardware
Cons
  • Slightly Crumpled
