Title: Good value & works great
Review: Bought the inexpensive, small Craftsman vac & it works great. Quality of plastic seems to be not dense or solid so I was concerned at first. However, I have used it many times & it has held up well.It has more than enough suction power for picking up things as long as debris aren’t too big for the hose. Vacuum itself doesn’t weigh much — light enough to carry & lift while using without getting tired.One caveat, haven’t had the opportunity to use it as a wet vac (lucky).

Title: Little sucker works great!
Review: This works great for carpet spot cleaning and vacuuming car. It sucks up water 10x better than any “carpet cleaner” which struggles to retrieve 10% of the water it sprays back into the tank. This tank is always full of water. It can also double as a dry vacuum and has about double the suction of our fancy house vacuum. It’s very lightweight and can easily sit inside a car as you vaccum. Does the job and great value.

Title: Nice and compact
Review: I love how easy this is to move around and how little space it takes up. It will work well with our tiny trailer. My first use was to clean out my messy minivan from moving and taking items to the dump. Now, since this shop vac is small it does clog easier, so no picking up items you would normally associate with a larger shop vac. It picked up small pebbles, dirt, and leaves just fine but struggled with twigs, larger pebbles, wood chips, and anything metal. Even though it clogged it only took a few seconds to fix and I was back to work. I am impressed at how much suction it has, and was able to get dirt out that was ground in the carpet fiber with no issue. I do recommend purchasing the extension wand and car attachments, they are nice to have and make cleaning easier. The wand especially gives you a longer reach.

Title: Light and efficient
Review: I had an accumulation water due to an attic AC Unit- The first time I dragged a large shop vac up three levels. The Shop pack sucked up the water, but the parts kept coming apart and water was going on the floor everywhere. I had to constantly get towels to soak up the leaks from that big machine. Ordered the small unit which came the next day. I used it to remove the accumulation of water in the pan surrounding the air handler. it was very light and I was able to carry myself up the steps. I sucked up a half gallon of water. I then bailed the bucket with a large cup -where the water accumulated in the unit into the sink -because with my bad back, I couldn’t carry the bucket. It was much more efficient for an accumulation of water in the house, then using the large unit, which was more for outdoors. I hope it continues to be useful in the future.

Title: this thing really sucks
Review: and that's a good thing. I got this a couple weeks ago, and it's already been a reliable tool for quick cleanups around the house and garage. I saved about $1000 from not having to call an ac guy (used this to suck out a clog from the evaporation pipe) and not having to call a plumber (had a calcium buildup in my shower drain that drain-cleaner couldn't fix, but a long pick and this vaccuum did wonderfully)The suction power is decent, strong for its size. It's great for picking up small debris and dust. The design is simple and easy to use, and the compact size makes it easy to store.

Title: The handy little water vac!
Review: I love this little water vac. It’s super easy to use and has good suction. I’m a senior and it’s light enough for me to use and carry when it’s full. It’s just the perfect size for small to med pick ups. I would really recommend this little work horse

Review: Easy to carry. I used the blower to separate tree debris from gravel. Our high powered blower just scattered the gravel .

Review: My old 12 year old 5 gallon Shop-Vac's motor burned out last week while vacuuming water flooding into my basement so I got this little one and it is much quieter and works fine.

Review: The Good: the suction on this is really good. It's lightweight and easy to carry around.The Bad: the hose keeps coming off if you pull it even slightly too hard. I wish there was a long attachment so that I could reach further places.
