Title: Works perfectly
Review: I am very pleased with the vacuum. It was a replacement of my old Craftsman and actually works better. It has plenty of power and gets the job done. it is a little loud but that is just like my old one. Sturdily built. I definitely recommend it.

Title: Strong suction power
Review: My favorite purchase on Amazon. It sucks everything up in the garage. The detachable leaf blower blows much stronger than anticipated. It sucks. It blows. It’s the best!

Title: Craftsman Shop VAc
Review: My 3rd one. Most power for the money. More tools than previous models. Longer cord with on board storage - a plus. Don't like the sliding on/off switch. Twice it has started on its own because the slider was not 100% into off position. On/off toggle switch was much better. To me the blower use is pretty useless. I'll use my Stihl blower and not mess with an electrical cord with limited range and power

Title: Almost perfect
Review: Likes:* Suction power. OMG, this thing will take your shoes off and away while you are standing on them.* Take the top off (not you Bob) and use it as a blower, great feature that i have actually used several times cleaning out my shop.* Maneuverable. While it is not the easiest thing to haul around, due to its size, it is actually not that bad, considering its size.* Tons of attachments. More than you can ever need.CONS:* This thing attracts dust, saw dust and it sticks to its body like glitter to your forehead...so i have read...The cause of it is static...the vacuum cleaner is immediately covered in dust a minute after taking it out of the box, it looks filthy and old.* The filtering process is still from 20 years ago. Same filter that gets completely caked with dust and impedes airflow after a while. So you end up having to cover yourself in dust while cleaning the filter...or having to vacuum the filter with another vacuum...you look silly vacuuming your vacuum.Flipping the giant tub over to empty it in a trashcan. Why isn't there a "drawer" style removable receptacle that you can pull out and take with you to the trashcan? Instead you have to take the top off and all its attachments fall off in the process, disconnect the hose and puck up the entire tub...unnecessary.* Noise. It is really loud. Too loud perhaps.WANTS:* You included more attachments than we will ever need but did not include a universal adapter? The adapter would be of great value, these things are used on dewalt, skilsaw, porter, little machines, big machines and they all have different size dust ports...* Do not ask that we maintain all the attachments sitting on the tub rim...every time we empty the thing the attachments fall off. Why not give us an attachment bag/case? We can go to it every time we need to change and the actual vacuum is free of any items sitting on it.* Modern casters/wheels. Those hard plastic casters are from the 70s. Get with the times and place something more like rollerblade wheels on it. Softer rubber is quieter and struggles less to go over an electric cord or any other obstacle. The casters it comes with seem to get stuck on everything...even the idea of rolling gets them stuck...except you leave your vacuum unattended for 10 seconds on you driveway, then the thing will roll away a quarter mile into the neighborhood's Karen from yard...OVERALL this machine really picks up the dirt, sawdust, and anything else you have laying around. It has some serious attempt at great engineering and does the job very well, a little more attention paid to the ease of use would go a long way improving it.

Title: Good product so far
Review: This seems to be well built. The packaging left some things to be desired, and I’m pretty sure it was an open box return sold as new. However, everything seems to be here and working so far. Will update this review in the future if any problems arise. So far I’m pleased!

Review: Este maquinon de verdad excedio mis espectativas. Pese a que es grande y voluminosa, no pesa, puedes guardar todo lo que trae con ella en sus espacios propios, y tiene una gran capacidad de succión. Super útil para todo, y aunque no he probado con líquidos, no tengo duda alguna que puede con eso y más. Tampoco he probado el soplador, pero resulta ser un gran valor agregado el poder contar con esa opción. La volvería a comprar y la recomiendo ampliamente.

Review: Bought this (and additional attachments) to clean leaves out of gutters, the HP was probably overkill for the job but it worked a wonder and now I don't have rain spilling over my gutters. At first I thought the section was weak, but that was user error. If this happens to you, just un-attach and re-attach the blower head onto the bucket, a poor seal on the removable head really weakens the power. I had over 7 ft of extension including the hose and rigid tubes and it was still a very powerful suction once I had the head attached correctly.Used it while the baby was sleeping inside and he didn't even wake up. That isn't to say it is whisper quiet, but the sound dampener does work quite well.
