Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works Great! Bought this to vacuum water up from our huge car mats that are in our garage. Wish it came with a water suction attachment since it is a Wet/Dry Vac. But alas, we will need to purchase that separately. The attachments that came with it do work well, just wish the water one was included.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome shop vac with power plus performance My work shop is small so theres not a lot of room for anything to big. The Ridgid NXT 0600 is just the perfect size and fit. Lot of options available for this vac. I highly recommend it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I really like the features of the product I have had other wet/dry vacs that picked up ok but when i purchased this one it picks up amazing. the suction I think I could pick up a bowling ball. I use it all the time I use it to clean the car and as well as the pellet stove when cooled.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Does its job without complaint I've had no trouble with it sucking up water, bird feathers from my adorable butt very messy parakeets, as well as super fine dust and debris which would have killed my $400 dyson
