Title: The DeWalt 4-Gallon Shop Vac: Small but Mighty!
Review: As someone who constantly finds themselves knee-deep in DIY projects and workshop chaos, this shop vac has been a fantastic addition to my toolkit. This little powerhouse is deceptively compact but packs a punch that tackles everything I throw at it (including clearing out a sludgy HVAC condensate drain).First off, the portability is a game-changer. Shaped like a toolbox with a strong handle, it's super easy to lug around from one job site to another. Despite its compact size, the 4-gallon tank is more than enough for my daily cleanups. Plus, the onboard storage for accessories keeps everything tidy and within reach, which is a big win for someone as scatterbrained as I am.The suction power is impressive, thanks to the 5 peak horsepower motor. It handles everything from sawdust to wet debris without breaking a sweat. The fine-dust cartridge filter does a stellar job with small particles, making sure no mess is left behind. And let's not forget the ultra-flexible hose and 20-foot power cord that let me reach just about anywhere without constantly unplugging and moving the unit.One feature I didnât expect to love as much as I do is the built-in blower port. Itâs powerful enough to clear sawdust and debris from my workspace in seconds. No more manual sweeping or blowing things away with a wimpy handheld fan.In short, this 4-Gallon vac is a beast in a compact body. It's portable, powerful, and incredibly efficient. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or a professional contractor, this shop vac will quickly become your go-to for any cleanup job. Highly recommended!

Title: Excellent for the price with no obvious drawbacks
Review: First, I just want to address other reviewers saying the bag(s) that come with/are made for this vacuum are "useless" because of their shape/size -- that's simply not true. The U-shaped bag is both intentional and necessary, as it allows the bag to expand around the cartridge dust filter (see attached photo). It does of course limit the size of the bag, but if you're vacuuming up things you don't want to breath in (e.g. lead paint dust/chips, drywall dust, fine wood sanding dust, etc.), having the contents empty into a sealed bag is the best option (as emptying the naked bin into the trash also exposes you to the dust, which defeats the purpose). Also, the bags don't leak, as they have a filter fabric lining inside the paper, contrary to what others have claimed. So in summary: the bags work, they are good, and they have a purpose (if you value your lungs and plan to suck up toxic/harmful dust).With that in mind, it's a pretty excellent shop vac for the price, as it has very good suction, the option to run with or without a bag (good for wet lift or general non-toxic debris), and it even has decent accessory options to boot. For instance, I've run my vac with a Bosch orbital sander using the bag and the optional DeWalt HEPA filter, and I get no dust leakage whatsoever -- much nicer than wearing a respirator all the time and having dust coat everything in the garage. Another worthwhile accessory is the Cen-Tec Systems 1 1/4" Quick Click hose, which adapts the vacuum port down to the more common 1 1/4" diameter for tools and allows easy/quick connection with pretty much any tool that has a dust port.Finally, I've seen others complaining that additional bags aren't available for this vacuum, but that doesn't seem to be the case (at least as of summer 2022). I ordered a 3-pack of the DeWalt DXVA25-4040 bags here on Amazon for $15, and I also found third-party bags in a 6-pack for $14 (KEEPOW DXVA25-4040 4 Gallon Shop Vac Bags) without any hassle. So if you want bags, you know, just buy them.In any case, it's a good vacuum for around $100 with plenty of suction, integrated hose and attachment storage, and even does decent stand-in duty as a dust extractor for power tools if you invest another $75 in a 1 1/4" hose, more bags, and a HEPA cartridge filter. My only qualm is that it's a little loud, but it's similar to other vacuums of the size/price and suction power, so it's hard to complain.

Title: Top 5 favorite Amazon purchases.
Review: Itâs lightweight yet powerful enough to be used all over the house and outside the house as well. Great for keeping the cars, patio, garage, workshop, kitchen to the bedrooms clean and free of dust. Comes with a pretty great filter and dust bag. The attachment all fit perfectly with the only exception being the two extensions on the side. Those fall out pretty easily when bumped. The hose could stand to be a little less rigid but itâs durable af so itâs acceptable. Easy to empty. Small enough to tuck away out of the way when youâre done. I love this thing and Iâm glad I got it. Great product for a great price.

Title: perfect size for utility vac, poor design details.
Review: Pro:Excellent size for small jobs and cleanups, rectangular form factor is great, good suction, nice large on/off switch. I have the corded version- cord is long enough that I rarely need an extension.Cons:Cord and hose storage are inconvenient. Cord stowage prevents access to hose. I tie the cord up with velcro instead.The attachments are limited- I immediately bought a small brushed nozzle and brushed floor (wide) nozzle.I have a large powerful shop vacuum that's a pain to move around for small jobs. This DeWalt unit is lightweight, reasonably powerful and self-contained. Everything stores on the unit, so one trip from the basement. The cord and hose storage are irritating and should be re-designed. You'll probably want to get more nozzles depending on how you plan to use it. Overall I'm happy with my purchase. I save my large vacuum for big jobs now.

Title: Best Small Shop Vac
Review: I had a Stanley mini shop vac which I got from Costco. It was very loud, tipped over all the time, rolled away, clogged a lot and had no suction.This shop vac is amazing! No wheels for it to roll away, it is quite, has great suction and the best of all - all its parts can be contained within itself. No hoses hanging everywhere and those accessories to lose. Once you are done using it, everything has a place and packs neatly away.

Review: -Rectangular shape is better for storing than the cylindrical ones-ALL onboard storage for everything which keeps everything neat-High-quality hose. It's a heavy silicone-ish/rubber hose, which compresses and expands a lot better than the regular plastic hoses that you typically use for vacuums and water pumps-Suction is good

Review: es una aspiradora que tiene una muy buena potencia, y me gusta mucho que todos los accesorios se guardan en la misma aspiradora sin tener la necesidad de andar buscando, el cable es muy largo a diferencia de otras aspiradoras, y eso es muy útil para cuando aspiro el vehÃculo, me evita el estar añadiendo extensiones, la apertura es muy practica y la manguera es de materia suave, que en mi opinión ayuda a que no se rallen las cosas por donde apoya o pasa, y por lo mismo no es quebradiza. En general me gusto mucho la relacion calidad precio.

Review: Works great, vacuum suck works great, although it says portable, doesn't seems like it. It lack of wheels, it should have some of attachments for putting wheels as of option. Attached the wheels and off. Its still amazing vacuum.
