Vacmaster, VBV1210, 12 Gallon 5 Peak HP Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum with Detachable Blower

Great vacuum and extremely well designed. I like that there are places on the vacuum to store each attachment, someone was really thinking when they designed this. The conversion to leaf blower is super easy and very powerful. The suction is more then adequate for my garage projects and it has a good assortment of attachments. Overall I'm very impressed with this vacuum. The reviews I read online helped me choose this one and I am not disappointed! Highly recommend it.

This thing sucks hard, in a good way!great power on the thing, love the detachable blower function. Overall a 10/10 shop vac!Well worth the money!

Bought this for my son as a gift. He liked it so well that I bought another for myself when my 30 year old Craftsman finally gave up. Comes with a ton of attachments in standard sizes. The detachable blower is clever and gets more use than I thought it would. The top attaches well, so it won't pop off when you lift it. When used as a wet vac, it holds a lot of water, so it gets heavy, so be ready for that. It has a little foam muffler in the outlet which does make it quieter, but it also noticeably reduces suction, and I wear hearing protection anyway, so I removed it. Bottom line: good tool, good price.

I just received this today and have used it for an hour. First impressions. The suction is great. The tool storage is done well and the reviewer who said his wheels fell off must have missed the step about screwing them on. I’m using it for general cleaning and on a band saw and 4” belt sander. I will be back if it fails on me but so far it’s excellent value for me.

I finally justified replacing my old "hand-me-down" shopvac, when I needed something solid and strong to use for replacing pool filter sand. As its first job, it performed exceptionally well and I managed to extract approx 130-140lbs of wet filter sand in about 1-2hrs. The 12 gallon capacity and 5HP motor combined with a sturdy hose and attachment made the job easy. The detachable blower, is great to clean up afterwards and is very useful and the reason I took this one over other options as it added to the "bang for buck" in my opinion. It is not very noisy as well.CONS:1. the wet filter "sponge" is very thin and a part of it tore off when I installed it and took it off.2. would have been nice to have some sort of hose storage, to compliment the accessory storage on the unit.Longevity will be the true test to earn 5 stars
