I love this product!! It's compact enough to store it when not in use, yet has big power and does a great job. Comes with lots of great attachments and is easy to clean and it looks nice.

Good power but due to top-heavy design hard keep from tipping over which becomes annoying after a while. A brush attachment would have been useful as well for vacuuming vents, baseboards and such. Still very lightweight, easy to manage and useful.

It's nice and small, yet plenty powerful! It's the only Shop Vacuum I've seen that comes with a carpet brush attachment. That is wonderful for cleaning almost any area of your vehicle. Plus, the vacuum is portable enough to use for steps or anything else!

Little vac that packs a lot of power! I love it! I use it when giving my car a wash. I have 2 dogs that I drive around and one is a border collie. He leaves behind a lot of hair, but this vac takes care of it.

I purchased this item because it fit my needs, I have a very crowded, small shop, so this just fits the bill. I waish it could also be used as a blower, but it can't, but it is what I needed, size does matter, I bought one that does both, but it took up too much space. Plus, it looks very nice, sitting in it's little niche in my much crowded shop.

Very nice wet/dry vac from Stanley. I like that it is taller rather than fatter. The castors are great for ease of movement. It's also has a very nice, industrial look to it. It's a very manageable size when the canister gets full.

As a first time homeowner in the five boroughs and I now have a garage, car, family room and basement I needed something that worked and was inexpensive to own and this one fits the bill. It's pretty powerful against dirt and water alike and easy to empty. The only concern is the clasp that hold the motor to the tank are flimsy and a downspout would have been even cooler to drain tank.

As vacuum cleaners go, this one is light and effective. I would not really call it a shop-vac though since the hose is rather small.

I picked this up on sale in June, mainly to use when I clean out our vehicles, and it definitely has paid for itself by not having to go to the gas station every couple of months to use their vacuums. It also came in handy on several occasions this summer when water came in our basement. The only thing that annoyed me was that the filter that comes with it needs to be taken out when vacuuming water. I just left it off afterwards.
