    The name Stanley has been around for I don’t know I’m 63 and it’s been around ever since I’ve been alive. Tell you. This vacuum really sucks I mean that in a good way and is a great vacuum

    This is fantastic! The taller skinny shape makes this a lot easier to work with than the wider ones. Easier to fit in a truck too.

    A good vacuum and good value

    This vacuum performs very well. The only issue in my opinion is in the design of the canister/top unit latches which become unlatched very easily allowing the bottom canister to detach. This has been an issue with other similarly designed vacuums that I’ve used and previous ones that I’ve owned.

    Works quite well! I've never really used a shop-vac, so I don't have a frame of reference, but it cleared out all the water that had leaked into my mom's car. It is a bit clunky to move, but no enough that would warrant a return.

    Has large hose instead of the 1-1/4” most other vacuums of this type come with. Vacuum is perfect size for shop use. Plenty of power for sawdust extraction. Happy with purchase. Very fast delivery time.

    I bought this for myself for christmas and it has not been a disappointment. This was an upgrade from a way to small 2 gallon generic model that I had for about 7 years. I spent untold time emptying the hot tub. This is powerful enough and with a large enough capacity to get the job done way sooner and helping me clean my hot tub faster so I can enjoy it sooner. Excellent buy.

    Perfect size and powerful. Old one was so big it was always in my way. The Stanley one is compact, besides who needs more than 8 gallons. I love this one.

    Difficult rolling across a floor

    Suction is good. The hose is stiff and the vacuum does not roll in the direction you pull it. The design is awful, the power cord and the suction hose are on opposite sides, when you to try roll it by pulling on the hose, it gets caught up in the cord and wont roll forward at all. If you are buying for it to sit mobile, to vacuum a car possibly, then this is your vacuum, if you are purchasing to vacuum a floor and need to move all around the room, this is not the vacuum for that. Had I know, it would be so difficult to roll across a room, I would not have purchased. Very poor decision putting cord and hose on opposite sides

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
