This Armor All Utility Vac is specifically designed to clean the interior of your car.

Troubleshoot: (1) Vacuum will not operate- No power supply Faulty power cord container full (2) Dust comes from motor cover- The reusable cloth filter is missing or damaged (3) Reduced efficiency and motor/speed vibration- There is a blockage in the nozzle, hose, or the vacuum inlets.

The 2.5 gallon polypropylene tank is small enough to carry around, but large enough for most jobs. A 2 horsepower motor provides ample suction power, as well as an easy conversion to a blower function. Auto shut-off detects fill limit and prevents overflow. Top handle and onboard accessory storage make for easy carrying. Built-in air and noise diffuser minimizes volume. Other great features include a 10-foot cord with wrap, 6-foot, 1.25-inch hose, reusable cloth filter, reusable foam sleeve, 2-in-1 utility nozzle, crevice tool, deluxe car nozzle, blower nozzle, and detail brush.

  • Works great!
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
Amazing!!! Strong suction! I was going to buy a handheld one for the same price but glad I went with this one. If you don’t mind having to connect it and are looking for a super easy to use vacuum for your car, this one is great! First thing I thought when it started picking everything up was, “Wow! Just like at the car wash” lol. The huge plus are the attachments. There is one for everything and they all came in handy my first use. Poor car 😆. The vacuum also has blowing capabilities and can pick up liquids as long as you use the provided filter, which is easy to install. That’s pretty awesome. The power cord is a good length as well which makes it even easier to use. As for the noise. I’d say it’s as loud or maybe a little louder than a household upright vacuum. The hose is a good length as well and it comes with extension attachments too. Overall I’m glad I went with this instead of the handheld battery ones. This one sucks everything up from all dust, debris, receipts, bottle caps, coins, small toys, anything that can fit in there AND they don’t get stuck because the suction is a good strength! - easy to use - strong suction - maneuverable - attachments for all needs - easy to clean ... show more

  • Dual use, powerful and quality product
Style: 8 Gal Vac
Very cool design, suction for cleaning and blower for leaves - great idea! I used on both dry dusty material and flooded basement pump out - worked great. Powerful suction, good attachments, fairly long lead (bit longer better)

  • Very pleased 🏆
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
Bought a second Armor All shop vac from the already opened section without wheels at a great price. Having one on each floor is super helpful. Accessibility saves time for a quick suck, and each serves a different purpose. Without wheels makes storage easier. Having extra interchangeable parts from my first purchase makes adding an arm extension easy without requiring expense and a second wheeled unit. Owning an original Shop Vac, regular vacuum, plus a Dirt Devil mini made me crave a different model that could do it all but not fell short on ability. Be light, hold more for large continuous cleanings, but not be so big or awkward navigating certain projects. Like the stair case. Or clean up after a Reno project of a vintage property. Caring for a feral community within an indoor cardio during their journey from TNR to touch and purr. Having the wheels and elongated extension serves us very well in many projects. A second unit able to store in the Catio closet is a game changer. Quick clean access is more motivating and less distracting, for me. Compared to the dirt devil in longevity, filter, and ability to manage not only cat needs but German Shepherd seasonal nick name Sheds a Lot one and done job. Rather than multiple attempts with a refuse collector. Though all our other style vacuums have served us well over the years prior to this property. The size of this vintage house and design from the turn of the century in 1900 includes an attic, full size basement including a workshop, and two floors with lots of rooms. Having cleaning tools like a broom and pan on each floor and vacuum options that manage the task at hand per floor are key to our household cleaning strategy. This medium sized powerhouse with its versatility and extensions plus washable and replaceable filter system is my favorite compared to all other units. Not only for size and ability but overall cost compared the larger regular size shop vac. Replacement filters add up. Tossing collection bags over time add up in cost. This little beast is easy to dump into a receptacle. Rinse the filter. Sure, maybe itty bitty particles get through. Justifying the replacement filter expense long term and the waste they create even with a sub and save discount is not worth the cost, imo. This unit comes with a dust cover collector and mesh sponge like filter. Find these adequate. We have experienced zero dust problems during use. While empty wrap the trash bag around the container. Dump. Wait a few moments for the dust to settle. Close the bag. No problems for us. Hope this review update is helpful. If you visit the opened, return, and damage box section could save a little extra. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😁 /\ update Beyond impressed. For half a dozen years have used a repurposed shop vac from Goodwill that has been exceptional for $25. It still works. The only thing I’d wished was different is maneuverability. It’s bulky and in an ideal world a smaller machine as capable was a wish. Here we are. Brilliant lil’ machine. What wows me, everything. Plentiful attachments cover both wet and dry. The two filter covers. Easy to clean and reuse. Way better than the shop vac that requires a big expensive filter replacement to maintain. Right here this lil’ buddy pays for itself in less replacement filters for shop vac. The down side on dry, this doesn’t use a bag. So be aware, careful to not breath in dust or where a mask when emptying. And, do outside so as to maintain your home. As dust might disperse everywhere when dumped. The wheels. It comes with screws. To secure the wheels to the vacuum. But could go without and on wheels when on the floor moving around. For people thinking attachments are missing, open the vacuum compartment. The hose and a few extras are inside. The guide is very detailed. Helpful. Advise reading to know how to do the wet verses dry options for appropriate use. Someone mentioned the power cord is short. It’s perfect for a room. But, using your extension cord for jobs like in my basement where there’s only two outlets is helpful. Or, if using this in my Jeep would need an extension from the outlet to help offer length. The variety of head options for diversity is wonderful. A couple of detail options with brushes will help. Like, if you have small spaces to clean of dust or debris. Very excited to have this device to help with a vintage property during renovations. Making vacuuming easier in awkward spaces. Like steps. Basement under stairs, etc. Listed on the vacuum is the initials for replacement filters if needed. What’s provided vibe durable and washable. Lots of uses available of a consistent user, like myself. Do I think $59 is worth it? YES. After six years using the most recognizable brand having searched for many years for a second option that’s portable, this is it. I’ve tried the Dirt Devil. Vacuum. The stand up type. In comparison this vac with the long hose will demand better results that the DS and less dealing with that devices small dust compartment. Very happy with this purchase for our needs at this price. With wood floors and a German Shepherd am excited to have better help maintaining floors and helping with renovations. Another plus, the hose is so long and multiple options for nozzles will have an easy time cleaning the exposed basement ceiling. If you’re looking for a multipurpose vac that can tackle tasks in the shop, kitchen, garage, basement, and many others like pet hair to vehicle’s like Jeeps and other utility vehicles this could be your win. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💯 ... show more

  • Compact and Powerful
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
Easy to assemble and easy-to-use. It's small, compact and lightweight so easy to carry. It's got great, strong suction power. The only thing I didn't like is the short power cord (reason for 4 star rating and not a 5). I had to use a extension cord to get around my car. The instruction manual does provide information on which type of extension cords to use for safety reasons. Highly recommend if you want a small, powerful and lightweight wet/dry vacuum with a variety of attachments to use. ... show more

  • Great Suction for a light weight portable wet/dry Vac
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
I’m genuinely impressed with the Armor All AA255W Wet/Dry Vac. It’s lightweight, portable, and surprisingly powerful for its size. I needed to clear a plugged HVAC drain line in my attic and this little vacuum came through like a champ—easy to carry upstairs and strong enough to suck out the trapped water. It had just the right amount of suction to clear the line and get my system back up and running. Definitely a handy tool to have around the house, especially for tight or tricky jobs. ... show more

  • Mighty little thing!
Style: 2.5 Gal Vac
This little thing is powerful! I have multiple dogs and cats with long and short fur and cleaning their fur off of the garage couches and car is extremely time consuming for me. My order was delayed, but when it finally got here we wasted no time trying it out. Tried in car first and WOW! It was a breeze using it, yea I had to pluck out a few long ones that really embedded itself into the material of the mats but that was just a few times and I didn’t have to fetch my bucket of many fur cleaning tools. I have yet to try the wet function of it but I will update when I do. It’s light weight and easy to move around. Reusable filter and easy to empty and clean. So far I have tried in cars and 3 piece couch set and it worked so wonderfully! ... show more
