Tools and Hardware Reviews of Shop-Vac 5850600 6-Gallon 3 HP Wet/Dry Vacuum

Customer Review: had to replace just out of warrenty
Summary: 1 Stars

My Shop Vac lasted just long enough, with occasional use only and not abused, to be out of warranty when it died. Went and replaced it with a RIGID, which has a lifetime warranty. The difference in operation and quality is obvious when you use both. Buyer beware.

Description of Shop-Vac 5850600 6-Gallon 3 HP Wet/Dry Vacuum

A great all-around wet/dry vac. All the power with less noise. Packed with features features Cord Length: 6 Feet Operation Sound Level: Super Quiet Hose Size: 1 1/4" Diameter Onboard Accessory Storage Included Accessories 1-1/4" Dia. X 7' hose, (2) 1-1/4" extension wands, 10" combination nozzle, squeegee, tool holder Included Filters Foam Sleeve, Reusable Disc
The first question to ask yourself when you're buying a wet-dry vac is, How much power/capacity do I really need? The night we moved in to our new house, a freak hailstorm flooded our basement. I borrowed my father-in-law's industrial-sized vacuum to clean up the mess, and it was just too big to maneuver in my basement and I almost broke my back lugging the eight-gallon tank up the stairs to empty it out.

For most home applications, I think three-five gallons is about right, so this six-gallon model would be appropriate if you anticipate the need for more capacity but don't feel like you need the extra power of a four-HP or better model. Even with the slightly higher capacity, it's still small enough to be maneuverable in cramped quarters.

The Quiet-Deluxe series, as the name suggests, are very quiet indeed, which makes this a good choice for home use. It has a blower feature for use in the yard, and comes with a selection of useful accessories. My one complaint about this model is that the hose was a little narrow, especially where it enters the vacuum. While I never had a problem with clogging, it seemed like this could be an issue depending on what you're trying to clean up.

Other than that, this is a great little vacuum with enough power and capacity for most home or small-business applications.--Josh Dettweiler
