Rated 5 out of 5 by from Power to spare! I'm doing a family room make over project in my basement. I bought the Rigid Wet Dry Vac to help with some standing water in the bulkhead area. Then I used it to pick up old wallpaper all over the floor that was there a while. Some was even stuck to the floor. The Wet Dry Vac performed unbelievably!! picked up every bit of wallpaper (even the stuck to the floor wallpaper) I was dreading scraping and crawling around to pick it all up. Never had to, the vac sucked it all up without effort! very satisfied!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great advances over the years My last vac lasted almost 25 years of hard labor. That's why I chose Ridgid again!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The right size and profomence This vac was the perfect size for my needs and it picked up everything from my demolition project. I’m using it to connect to my power tools and no problem yet

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Our best purchase This Ridgid is the best purchase we have made for our wood shop and cleaning up old webs and dust over the years has been a life save. We added extra hose links and has sufficient suction power to handle the job. Thank you for a fine product. Respectfully

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Decent Vacuum Compared to the several year old Rigid shop vac this is replacing it feels cheep and flimsy, particularly the top, the way the top attaches to the base and the hose. So far it has worked quite well, but we'll see how long it lasts. I suspect the hose will need replaced semi-regularly and am babying the tabs that secure the top to the base, those a a concerning week point, but nothing duct tape and/or bungee cords won't work around.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Made to last Product was very well made and easy to tell was built to last long. Well thought out ideas for attachments and long cord for ease of use. Would recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great. It does really big jobs of cleaning up drywall dust when remodeling. Does the job. Use it on the car port, cleaning out air vents and always cleans up everything.
