abunda_amazon_reviews Just perfect! I'm in my 70's and it is a perfect size for me to lift, wheels roll really well, easy to maneuver, very sturdy. I love the hose attachment for it screws onto the base which makes it secure, unlike some that just push in (and come out when pulling the machine around). Was able to clean my screened in porch, which was filled with pollen and dirt from the winter, without a problem. Sucked up the pollen and dirt first using the vac bag included then removed the bag and sucked up the water I used to wash the porch down. Hard work for an old lady, but this made it easier. But to make you aware, although it is a 4 gallon it only holds less than 2 gallons of liquid before shutting down. But that was OK with me because it was easier to empty the water out.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Just Perfect;;Susan;;;The product description states this vacuum is capable of 71 inches of static water lift. Comparing this to other vacuums, this is amazing. But turns out it's way too good to be true. There is no way this vacuum is capable of that much lift. Bigger and more powerful Shop Vacs don't even come close to that. This vacuum has about as much suction as my battery operated Dewalt vacuum. My Shop Vac that is also rated as a 5 HP (peak) and has way more suction. How is this rated 5 HP (peak) with an 8 amp motor, when other vacuums rated 5 HP (peak) have 11-12 amp motors? For a simple test, I put a 3-inch wide floor attachment on this vacuum and angle it so that it is as flat as possible on the concrete garage floor. Lifting straight up, there is very little resistance, meaning it does not have powerful suction. Putting the same attachment on my Shop Vac which is rated the same HP, and doing the same test, it has a lot of resistance, meaning it does have powerful suction.;;Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2018;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Poor Suction, Incorrect Specifications;;ian;;;I'm generally too lazy to write reviews, but thing thing is so good I feel obligated to do so. I'm a bit of a vacuum guy. I own canister vacs from Fein and Festool, as well as a number of more traditional "shop" type vacs. This little guy is relatively small and lightweight, especially considering how well it works. It's not convenient for me to run this side by side with the Fein and Festool, by my impression is that it's noticeably quieter than either. Suction seems to be equivalent. I don't use this to collect dust from power tools, it's just for clean up tasks around my home. It's great for vehicle cleaning as well as any other common vac tasks. Because it's supposed to be a HEPA vac, I used it last weekend to thoroughly clean my sons room as he is suffering badly from allergies. I ran the vac continuously for over an hour, and it showed no signs of getting too hot. His allergies immediately improved, though I can't give all the credit to the vac because we also washed and wiped every surface. It comes with a nice assortment of tools. My only wish is that the hose were about 2 feet longer. Considering the cost of the other vacs I own, this is about the best deal ever. Inlove mine and am trying to come up with an excuse to buy another.;;Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Super Quiet;;T. Kulin;;;I purchased this to replace an 8 gallon shop vac that I used in my basement for cleaning up after light metal and wood working. Because it is indoors, I really wanted a HEPA filter to prevent spreading dust in the house so I found this one and I been pleasantly suprised. This vac is powerful but light and easy to use. It came with all the accessories I needed, and they interchange with my old shop vac. The onboard tool caddy is not for me--I just keep the parts in a 5 gallon bucket tucked away where I don't have to see it. The long, retractable cord the prevents me from needing a separate extension and keeps me from damaging the cord each time I wind it up. The wheels actually work well and let it follow me along when I vacuum the floor. My cat appreciates that it is low to the ground so it does not tip over and make the sound of a boiling witch. The small size makes it great for inside the house or car, but don't expect it to be a contractor vacuum. This vac has made a very picky customer very pleased. Enough to seek out my purchase on amazon and write a nice review.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Best small vacuum I've owned.;;AmazonUser;;;Purchased this vacuum recently and enjoyed using it. Thought I would create a video so others may find it useful. Enjoy.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2015;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Great little shop vac;;ithelpme dot com;;;Not quite what I was hoping for...but fortunately I'm not completely disappointed. After reading the reviews, I was expecting something with far more vacuum power. But after using this vacuum a few times, I'm rather underwhelmed with its power. It still works for the most part and I love the fact its rather portable. But at times I'm left wanting to use our regular household vacuum. Below I sum up my thoughts on this vacuum: Pros: -Cheap -Very light -Good choice of attachments -Easy to use Cons: -Doesn't quite deliver the vacuum power I was hoping for. Another reviewer stated it was so powerful it would literally pick up nails. I honestly don't get that impression at all.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2015;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Not as powerful as other reviewers will lead you to believe;;Brett O.;;;We used to have a shopvac qsp which we used as a household vac, before it was used to suck up water with the wrong bag (motor got wet) and replaced it with the Vacmaster. The Vacmaster is well thought out and well designed. Much quieter, built in cord reel, large buttons, and follows behind (tows) easily while vacuuming. We have hardwood, tile, granite, and some carpet throughout our house so this vacuum works perfectly for our needs. One plus is the diameter of the hose fits all our (small diameter) shop vac attachments, so they are interchangeable.;;Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Quiet, Efficient and Ergonomic;;DB
