Customer Ratings & Reviews

Can’t say I have ever left a review on a vacuum cleaner much less a small shop vac. This thing packs a punch, I don’t even use my 5 gallon shop vac. It comes with several attachements, my favorite being the squeegie / wet attachment. I have found the ultimate cheat code for cleaning windows, spray down with window cleaner and use wet attachement to vacuum it up. No more wax on wax off .

Easy to use, gets small jobs done. When using the wet vac, it fills up fast and only half way. If you have a lot of water to clean up then you have to empty very often. Its also very loud. The cord also is ment to wrap around the top handle and is not really practical. You have to unwrap the whole cord to open the chamber. It seems well made, and i hope it lasts for years

Lots of nifty attachments, easy to transport, and powerful for the size.

Got this for a Valentines gift for my husband, so that he didn’t have to pull out his larger wet vac to clean our vehicle’s . He was surprised at the power it has. Very please , vacuums fantastic & easy to manipulate around the entire vehicles . Said he would definitely recommend it.

Small and powerful machine. Portable, easy to use and cleaner

Great suction, easy to carry around house and clean the hard to reach areas like the fridge, dryer,. Stove, etc. Also nice to use in the car. Only thing is if the canister part tips over while vacuuming it makes a loud noise because it's clogged. Just open and close, then the noise goes away. Lastly not great at picking up lots of fine dust from sanding the drywall. Other than that I still recommend and give high reviews

Its pretty loud and gets very hot after just a few minutes. The cord is also not long enough for me to get around my entire car without having to unplug and move to another plug. They could have done a lot better with this. The suction is the only plus and i can use my regular stand up shark to clean my car out.

I needed something small enough to travel with and store in my small home, and this device is well compacted and has helped me with my vacuum needs.

This thing is so portable and easy to use, it’s amazing. The suction is awesome. I use this vacuum all the time around the house, inside and out. Easy to clean! Easy to store. Wish it came with the hard floor attachment but the attachments it does come with have worked really well. I am impressed. Worth the purchase price for sure!

This is a powerful little vacuum. It offers something other extractor don't really offer, and that is a rubberized crevice tool for sucking up fluids out of both carpet and hard surfaces. I was able to simply shampoo my car carpet after my dog vomited on it by applying soap and manually scrubbing, and then sucking all of the water out with this bad boy. It did a great job cleaning. Now onto why this isn't a perfect 5 star item. There are two major flaws that I cannot forgive. Flaw #1 that registers as a dealbreaker for me is that the float system is not perfect -- water WILL break past to the pre-motor filters. There are two premotor filters -- one sponge-like filter that absorbs a decent amount of fluid, and a cloth like filter right after it. Just as advertised, I basically sucked in soapy water after doing a cleaning of dog vomit to wash out the hose. It stopped when the float got triggered, and I took everything apart to wash and flush. To my dismay, the sponge premotor filter was soaked. Nothing in the instruction manuals warn of this, and had I not noticed, it'd probably have rotted of vomit water the next time I used it (or even worse, gotten into the motor). A float is supposed to be designed to cut off suction and prevent fluids from reaching the motor chamber, and this is unacceptable. You can get away with washing the hose by removing it though, so this is completely avoidable. Just not a fan that the advertised cleaning method is not feasible. The design flaw #2 is that the short hose comes right out of the same side of the exhaust fan. That means if you're vacuuming something up, you're also blowing air right at the same direction. Speak about irony. It wouldn't be a huge deal if the hose was longer, but it is way too short and unfortunately always going to be an issue. These two flaws make the product hard to recommend; however, they might not be dealbreakers for you. Just be very aware of these design issues and be sure to take the sponge filter out after each session of wet vacuuming.

Great, lightweight shop-style vac. Easy pickup of things that clog an upright vac, like dog toy carnage. Cool AnyBag feature lets you use up old grocery store plastic bags. Easy to clean. Lots of power. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely great shop vac. We use it at the office for small jobs and its perfect in size and power.

The Shark MessMaster Portable Wet/Dry Vacuum has been an absolute game-changer for my cleaning regimen. Its compact design belies a powerful suction capability that's on par with much larger shop vacs, easily tackling both wet and dry messes without a hitch. The 1-gallon capacity strikes the right balance between being lightweight and sufficiently spacious to avoid constant emptying. Plus, the included Pet Multi-Tool and Carpet Tool are fantastic bonuses that make this vacuum incredibly versatile for pet owners and carpeted areas alike. For its size, it's a top-performing appliance that punches well above its weight in cleaning power.

Don't let the title confuse you. This is the perfect wet/dry vac for around the house, garage, and for cleaning out the cars. Easy to move around and take any where. Be prepared to have an extension cord, as the cord isn't as long as I would like,

This a replacement for a cumbersome full size shop vac. I like the small foot print and light weight for handling my shop vac jobs. I was glad to se the 33 gal shop vac go. Got the Shark on Deal of Today!

I have a small 12 volt vacuum for cleaning the cars. It isn’t powerful enough to clean properly, this 110 volt sharp vacuum is light weight and very powerful. It removes all dirt and debris properly and the power cord is very long. I highly recommend this product.

Love this little thing. Appreciate how you can use it with or without a bag. It’s more stylish than other wet/dry vacs, and I like how the attachments store on the unit, as well as the cord and the hose itself. Only two things that are slight downfalls, which is the only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars for assembly and maneuverability: It’s fairly heavy for its size… and the hose is hard to get it wrapped around all the way to the storage clip BUT I’m assuming it will get easier to do the more I use it as the hose stretches out a bit. Great suction, good variety of attachments, like it.

I was really impressed with the capabilities of this vacuum! It works really well, it is small and easy to move around with and I love the ability to clean it with a cup of water. I am definitely enjoying cleaning with this vacuum!

This thing is awesome! I purchased it to use for vehicle detailing and am very impressed with it so far! Has plenty of power and is surprisingly lightweight.

I got this vacuum on sale. I love everything that is Shark branded. It's always good quality. The suction works good and it was easy to put together. I like all the tools it comes with. Wish the pet tool came with it. I saw that in the instruction booklet as an extra accessory, but it doesn't come with the vacuum. I took away a star for a few reasons. The hose is wayyyy too short. I was trying to vacuum dust from the blinds and I have tall windows. Even with the 3 extension tubes, I still had to have the vacuum base right under the window where I needed to vacuum. I would have rather had a longer hose and minus one of the tubes. Another reason I took away a star is because I wish it came with a small bag to keep the accessories together. Not all the accessories fit on the vacuum. Only a few attachments and of course the tubes don't fit on there. So a mesh accessory bag would have been good.
