Rated 4 out of 5 by from So far so good. Has great suction and I like the locking tabs on the hose and attachments. I have only had it for a few weeks, but so far it works great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Vacuum Pros: - Excellent suction, very strong. - Blower function very useful, e.g., for clearing our deck of pine needles. - Convenient to have storage of the tools on the vacuum. - Locking mechanism for hose and attachments works well and is convenient. Cons: - No dry floor brush. A wet brush is included.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid long-term performer This was a warranty replacement after five years. Process of replacement was simple, take and send in a few pictures. And the replacement was certainly five years better than the earlier one. Ridgid keeps working on the products to make them better.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features.... I had a similar vac.made by Craftsman for 12 years and the motor burned up, I know how good Rigid products are I went to Home Depot to see there vac's by Rigid and found almost exact same as I had w/ Craftsman but up dated and I was glad I found this 12 gal. vac, fair price, and the hoses and parts are the same GREAT !!! and I hope this unit will last as long !!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from System designed for not failures I was very pleased to find that the Shop Vac has a feature on the hoses that prevents it from pulling apart or out of the vac. Also the extra long electrical cord makes it much easier to move around the work area. The only thing that is a small issue for me is that I have a small space and it is much larger that the last one I owned. But for it's performance it is worth the space issue.
