  • Powerful Suction and a Great Value, With a Few Minor Wishes
Style: 2.5 Gal Vac
The Armor All AA255 is a solid wet/dry shop vacuum, especially for the price. It delivers strong suction power that handles everything from small debris to tougher messes with ease. I also appreciate the included attachments — they make it simple to clean tighter spaces or cover wider areas depending on the task. While the vacuum performs very well overall, I do wish the power cable were a bit longer for better reach. It also would’ve been nice if it came with an extra filter and a carrying case for easier storage and transport. Despite those small drawbacks, this vacuum offers impressive performance and versatility at a reasonable cost. A great choice if you need a compact yet powerful utility vac. ... show more

  • Strong, sturdy, and gets the job done!
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
This vacuum was EXACTLY what I needed! It was easy to put together, sturdy, and held a lot of the dirt that was in my car. I love that it came with different attachment heads, so I was able to get into the hard to reach cracks of my car. I hadn’t vacuumed my car in years so I was definitely surprised that it picked up all the dirt that was pretty much stuck to the rug in my car and seats. The suction is very strong and it picks up and stores a lot in the main compartment. It is also easy to clean and dumb afterwards. Would definitely recommend. ... show more

  • 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

  • Works pretty well.
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
Works pretty well, for the most part. It would be nice if the top fit on a little better though. Sometimes when you are carrying it with the handle while using it the top separates from the bottom enough, and you lose suction at the hose. I use the attachment that looks like the the vacuums at the car washes the most, glad this set has that attachment. Suction seems good for how small the unit is. Gotta clean the filter bag a lot though, that gets clogged up pretty quick. Replacement filters are cheap. ... show more

Very nice compact vacuum! Perfect for small clean-ups and autos. Both my husband and I love the quality and versatility with many attachments (that store on the unit) and the powerful suction it has. Highly recommend this vacuum.

  • Best engineered utility vacuum EVER
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
I bought 4 different vacuums over 7 days and took them all back immediately after I turned checked them out at home. Didn't have to even use them to see they were not up to my standards. Suffice it to say, I shopped hard for the right unit and this one would get 10 stars if they let me. The others were clunky, or didn't have the right tools, or the hoses were designed for their tools only. This Armor All has more tools than you need plus the hoses are sized to fit most of the leftover tools I have collected over the years from brands like Craftsman. The engineering is off the charts badass and you see it from the moment you open the box. It is perfectly packed to avoid waste and space. The unit itself is compact but powerful enough for any household or garage cleanup and the exhaust has a diffuser that blows only half of what other vacs put out their tail end. The tool holders are molded onto the unit, not some flimsy attachment that falls of easily. Even the hose winds up and attaches around the unit for compact storage. The base rolls and turns easily around floors. It is solidly built and a great vaIue. I was excited about a wet/dry vac, that says it all! PS - I read reviews here that said the pressure was poor. They either received a bad unit or they have commercial needs. For typical household needs this model works just fine. ... show more

  • Great Car vacuum all around
Style: Update 2.5 Gal
I was pleased with the suction power, the fact it is easy to put together(need a screwdriver for 4 screws and that’s it!), it’s lightweight, and comes with a ton of different attachments. Haven’t used it for wet vac yet(don’t really plan on it?) but it got my car clean for sure! I did buy a separate extension cord from harbor freight just because I live in an apartment and don’t have an outside plug so it helped reach my car. Noise level was completely fine too. ... show more
