Nice portable tool, more than expected power,
August 18, 2008
By Geechfrom Pittsburgh, PA
"I didn't buy this expecting it to compare to the 5HP Shop Vac I have in the garage, however I was surprised to see how well it works. Using a 14.4 Volt battery pack I noticed to get about 15 minutes at full strength, two got the job of vacuuming my boat done. I wish the unit would have come with batteries and a charger, but it gave me a good excuse to purchase a drill / battery combo that was on sale at the same time. I'm impressed by the fact that this will take an DeWalt battery pack, I guess its ultimately marketed towards current DeWalt tool owners for that reason."

Dewalt Vac,
August 18, 2008
By JR25from Richmond, VA
"This is a good basic vac, and picks up water, too. It has decent power and can run off 110 volts as well as battery. My only complaint with it is that it is a battery hog, and really pulls down a battery quickly. It would be nice if it could charge its battery when it is plugged in. Comes with a brush and crevice tool attachments."

"I found this product very useful on the job site. It goes cordless for an impressive 30 minutes on a 18V battery."

"Great vacuum. I have 2 of them which not only get used in my construction clean-up business, but I've found multiple uses for them at home and in our vehicles. Great suction. Only wish they were a little lighter in weight."

"I bought this unit for my kids/young adults. They use it for thier cars. Instead of going to the car wash they use it at home. Draw back to this unit is uses battey power quickly. Although, It works great. If your going to use battery power plan ahead take two batteries with ya. The unit comes with a power cord as well. Dual power great little unit. I'm finding new uses for this vac. Great price/I'd buy it again"

BEST SHOP VAC ON THE MARKET,

By DUSTY9898from Apple Valley, CA
"i just received my Dewalt wet/dry vac as a gift. I find it to be very powerful quiet and efficient. I have used it on both battery and 120V with no noticeable change in power or performance. It will be a great addition to my inventory of shop tools."
