Description

The CRAFTSMAN 16 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac, featuring our most powerful 6.5 Peak HP motor, is the ideal solution for tackling large cleanup projects in the garage or on the jobsite that need the most power. Large scale renovations, builds, or floods are an easy task for this large shop vacuum. This wet dry vac includes a car nozzle, utility nozzle and wet nozzle. Also included is a large 2-1/2 in. diameter hose with added Dual-Flex that resists kinks and crushing. On-board hose storage plus accessory and power cord organizers help eliminate unneeded hassle and reduce overall storage space. The Qwik Lock Filter Fastening System allows for quick and easy wet dry vacuum filter changes. Equipped with an extra-large drain, the tank empties liquids quickly and easily. The blowing port directs high speed exhaust air through the hose giving you the ability to go from cleaning up from a renovation to blasting yard waste from the deck. Gallons indicated reflect drum volume, not necessarily collection capacity, actual capacity dependent upon type of debris collected, condition of filter and other factors. Peak horsepower represents a level at or below the maximum horsepower output of an electric motor tested in a laboratory using a dynamometer.

  • Awesome Shop Vac!
Size: 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP
This Craftsman 16-gallon vac is a powerhouse! The suction is super strong—it picks up everything from dust to big messes with no problem. I use it in my garage and for cleaning my car, and it works great for both. The tank holds a lot, it’s easy to move around, and the attachments are really useful. It’s also not too loud for how powerful it is. Definitely worth the money—solid quality and does exactly what it’s supposed to do! ... show more

  • I will never buy a different brand shopvac this is perfect.
Size: 12 Gallon 6.0 Peak HP
When I broke my old craftsman shopvac two years ago I thought I would try a cheaper brand with supposedly the same specs and power as my old craftsman.. but that thing was total garbage. I couldnt even vacuum leaves in my garage without it clogging I got so mad I just threw it away and bought this craftsman again, and oh boy, am I glad I did. I had forgot how great the suction plwer is with craftsman shopvacs. I use it for so many things I even vacuum my backyard bc my neighbors tree constantly drops leaves. This vac sucks everything, it never clogs, it has a huge amount of space inside. Its easy to assemble, easy to use, the hose doesnt come out of the intake port if you pull too hard, it rolls easily, it opens and empties easily and yet it will not open unless you intend to open it, the attachments are so perfect for all my needs, and the diameter of the tubes is big enough that it wont clog on large leaves or rocks or stray vines. I use this for everything to keep my outside and garage clean and Im obsessed with it. I will always own this shopvac or one like it by craftsman and never will I ever try a other brand ever again. OH it also killed it, when I cleaned my subaru. It has a skinny tip attachment that works perfectly for vacuuming car carpets and seats and cracks. My car is spotless and I love that. Great vac, 10 stars.. perfect. ... show more

  • Excellent vac with a fiasco product experience
Size: 12 Gallon 6.0 Peak HP
CRAFTSMAN 12 Gallon 6.0 Peak HP Wet/Dry Vac, Portable Shop Vacuum with Attachments is my second Craftsman shop vac. My first was the 16 gallon and there are noticeable differences between the two sizes. The only reason I don't have the 16 gallon is because of a not so honest person we dealt with selling our house so I gave away many items that I still needed, due to him giving us false closing info....anyway on to more interesting things to talk about. This 12 gallon shop vac is very very light weight. The 16 gal not so much. Attachments, canister, hose are all smaller in size than the 16 gal which I like. Suction is just 1 /2 mini horse smaller than the 16 gal but it suctions just as well and even better! Why better? Because the 1/2 (higher) mini horse power made the vacuum suction TO the floor with any attachments on it. Where as this vac suctions extremely well, draws up EVERYTHING from dust to concrete chunks AND doesn't suction its self TO the floor. I had to literally always shut off the 16 gal vac to get it to let GO of the floor when it had the floor attachment on. The crevice tool was never a problem. Comes with several attachments and the hose pieces. Once you put the hose pieces together they are VERY difficult to pull apart. They are very tight fitting, so that's a pro, the not pulling apart easily is a con but better than them not fitting together. Had the same problem with the 16 gal. We had to gently but firmly mallet the feet on. They are supposed to snap on....nope. Cons & my fiasco experience: My shop vac arrived WITHOUT screws of ANY kind. Zero, nada, zilch...none. Sooooo, I called Amazon customer service. Long story short they were going to give me a $17 discount for no screws but I felt this was a screwy offer - yes pun intended. WHY should I take that offer? The screws SHOULD have been included...PERIOD. I didn't want a discount, I wanted the screws to attach the hose holders and handle! Fiasco #2. - 6 lid teeth were broken off in shipping. So when the Amazon customer service person hears me griping about his $17 offer, I brought up the broken teeth which he then tried to grill me on why am I bringing this up NOW ? He didn't believe me. I didn't bring it up because I was calling to get missing screws. The teeth are important but don't affect the performance overall. The lid has locks on two sides to hold it down. BUT again, I paid full price for this vac sooooo..... Long story short I submitted photos of the broken teeth, told him I'd have to make an effort to replace and match/ find the right screws and/ or glue on the handle with construction cement (fiancé is going to do this) . I demanded a steeper discount and he FINALLY listened and gave it. I'm VERY pleased with this Craftsman shop vac. It performs like a pro, iand s easy on the pocket book. A+++++ rating B and half of a minus grading for customer service. ... show more

  • Excellent suction and value!
Size: 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP
I absolutely love my new shop vac! I am only deducting a star because the wheels were very difficult to put on. The suction is amazing and it works incredibly well for wet or dry products. Nice long cord so you can reach most areas without relocating it to another outlet. Did I mention the excellent suction?? Great value for the price. It's my new favorite household "tool'! ... show more

  • Easy to put together and works great (use soap to get casters on)
Size: 16 Gal 6.5 Peak HP w/Diffuser
Bought this 16 gallon shop vac during Prime Day and just put it together. I got it so I can vacuum my car and vacuum the garage floor. Instructions that come with it are very clear on both putting it together and using it. You need a Phillips screwdriver and a bit of dish soap - the soap is to ease the way for the casters as these can be tough to push in for a weak old person like me. It is a beast with vacuuming - completely sucks up dirt without hesitation. It came with a muffler so it is not really much more noisy than my indoor vacuum. I have not tried vacuuming liquid and hope I never need to do it (would only be if there was a flood of some sort) but so far I am very happy especially given the low Prime Day price I paid. ... show more

  • Good Quality
Size: 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP
Where I work, we are hard on vacuum cleaners. We use the constantly to clean up around our facility. We were destroying vacuums and needed to find a suitable replacement and tried this Craftsman option. I'm glad that we need because these have held up very well. Since purchasing these Craftsman units, we have not had to replace another vacuum as of yet. The quality of these is great and the reliability has been very good so far. I would recommend these vacuums for work or home. ... show more

  • Very big, very powerful
Size: 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP
I was a little worried when I opened the package. No inner packaging, plastic parts...it looked cheap. But then I turned it on and WOW! I used it as a wet vac to deep clean a carpet that my cat peed on and it sucked up the liquid like those big truck-mounted industrial units. Now I'm glad they didn't spend any money on the packaging or bucket and put it into the motor and filter. ... show more
