Review on WORKSHOP Wet/Dry Vacs Vacuum Accessories WS17823A - Heavy Duty 1-7/8-Inch x 10-Feet Contractor Wet/Dry Vac Hose for Shop Vacuums by Jake Mccallum

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easily connects to any Ridgid or Craftsman vacuum

This is the same hose and accessory as the Ridgid brand. I bought both. The only difference is that this one has a gray hose; Ridgid has an orange tube. The boxes are even the same size. Both cost the same. I don't know who's doing who. I think Rigid is doing Sears, so Rigid is probably doing Workshop. I can only guess. The hose has attachments for my Sears shop vacuum and my Ridgid shop vacuum. Lightweight and easy to apply and secure once in place. The hose is of significantly better quality than what you get on any brand of vacuum cleaner. The hose is a bit smaller in diameter so I used my expensive air velocity tester; ran a similar experiment, testing the Workshop hose against the Ridgid hose that came with the vacuum. 1,955 fpm. The only negative I noticed is that something that barely goes through the big hard vacuum tubes can get stuck in the small hose. I only rated the durability 4 stars because that would be a guess. The value was also 4 because it wasn't "theft" but at a reasonable price.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • So far so good
