For me, portability, ruggedness, and suction are my top priorities and you will not find a better small vacuum.
The bad thing about this Vac, chamber is small for water pick up and air movement is so strong like a tornado and able to pick any splash of water inside the tank and blows out from exhaust. Even tried with foam filter. The only way to fix the problem by adding 3 black foam filter able to stop picking any splash water.
Other than that I love it and used on all mostly dry cleaning. Ill use to clean any liquid as emergency.
The suction power is just as powerful as you expect and it meets all expectations and justifies the highest rating it has received in many reviews. Easily beats everything else that I've tried before. A test for vacuuming a dirty car showed how efficient and useful it is. Cuts down the vacuum time by a lot. Another plus is that it can handle wet messes just as well.
BLOWER EXHAUST
Like bigger models that I was hoping to avoid, it has a permanent powerful hot exhaust that is also known as the blower. There is no way around this. All vacuums must create an exit for the suction. The blower functionality from the other end can't be turned off. The suggestion is to insert the sound muffler that comes with the accessories to reduce the sound and may decrease the intensity of air flow output and it works wonders. It works very well in eliminating the hot nasty blast and reduces the sound by a lot. But because it is hot and the foam is made of petroleum based materials, it will produce a chemical like odor. That will go away with time but at least in the beginning sessions of operation, the odor is very unpleasant. Not suggested for use in closed spaces initially.
Also don't overlook the usefulness of a blower function. It can dub as a leaf blower, replace compressed air can functions like cleaning computer boards if you fit it with the right adapters and even help inflate things.
DESIGN
Overall, it is better than competition both in terms of accessories and size. I also like the attempts for helping the user organize the accessories and the hose. There are places to put in the attachments so they won't go missing.
INCREDIBLE PRICE
It is worth every penny and beats every other model I've tried/owned. You would think a combination of all this which is a rarity in all other models would be very costly but it isn't. The bags are priced very reasonably and easily replaceable/accessible. No price gouging on frequent replacement and throw away designs.
NEEDS A CARRYING/STORAGE CASE
Difficult to find any storage or carrying case for it. I wish they made one for the unit.
There are also no wheels or rolling cart attachment solution. It is primary designed to be set up on a wall, on the floor and be carried on the go.
NON-WHEELED
This is a non-wheeled vacuum designed to be used as stationary vac shop, hung from a wall or otherwise manually placed close to the mess you are cleaning up. You can make a cart for it and turn it into a wheeled version. Therefore it is not suitable to be used as a substitute for a traditional vacuum.
The other issue is that the type of hose is suited for stationary tasks and doesn't have a rotate mechanism at the attachment points like wheeled based variants that would adjust to the pull and push action of vacuuming.
It comes with a bag but you don’t need to use it as we dump the dirt straight to our garbage bin.
Top reviews from other countries
Portable and light - this vacuum is easy to pick up and carry. It doesn't have wheels, but I have a much larger shop vac with wheels so I didn't need that. In fact, I prefer this because I can hold it in one hand while on a step ladder or walk around with it easily (things I can't do with my larger shop vac). It has a 5 gallon chamber, meaning it is quite compact.
Decent hose length - mine came with a 7 foot hose and various attachments. Perfect for what I wanted.
Strong suction - this is rated at 5.5 HP which is just as strong as my larger shop vac and stronger than the Dyson I use inside. No problem picking up debris and great for vacuuming a car. You can also reverse the hose and use this as a blower.
Reliable - so far, so good. It seems well-built and time will tell. I've had it for a few months.
Overall, it's a great little shop vac!
Pros:
Excelente poder de succión, es la mejor aspiradora que he tenido.
Los accesorios son muy útiles tanto para tareas domésticas como para el detallado automotriz
Se siente de buena calidad y ensamble.
Cuenta con un difusor de ruido lo cual la hace más silenciosa a pesar de su potente motor.
El cable es lo suficientemente largo.
Contras:
Es muy robusta lo cual resulta en que el equipo sea un poco más pesado y voluminoso que algunas otras.
No cuenta con ruedas para moverla fácilmente
La manguera de succión es buena sin llegar a ser de uso rudo.
La manguera de succión en el extremo donde se conectan los accesorios no gira lo cual me resulto muy sorprendente ya que le quita demasiada funcionalidad a la aspiradora, he tenido otras de gama menor y ellas cuentan con esta función en el extremo de la manguera, solo por este detalle le daría 4.5.
Los accesorios vienen un poco filosos en sus bordes pero nada que un poco de lija no solucione.
En general es de las mejores opciones que hay en el mercado, la elegí sobre una de la marca Rigid basado en un test, los accesorios (puesto que la Rigid se venden aparte) y por el precio.
