Shop-Vac Shop Vac 8 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac

The Shop Vac 8 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac comes with a powerful 3HP motor which helps you clean any wet or dry surface. The Quiet Series wall mount Shop Vac design helps prevent tipping; and the easy-roll casters make mobility easy. A seven-foot long hose and a 10-inch dry and wet nozzle means no area is left unattended. The dedicated cord storage area makes tangled cords a thing of the past. This portable wet/dry vacuum features an eight-gallon storage tank. The built-in top handles, foam sleeves, and disposable filter bag with retainer ring are extras that help make this vacuum special. The shop vacuum cleaner is an indispensable piece of equipment at work, or anywhere heavy-duty clean-up may be needed.

Not what I expected. You get what you pay for. I will be buying a bigger one with a larger than 1.25 inch hose.

This is a great shop vac, for the price, but the power cord is very short. It does have the blower option, but I have not tried that yet.

This vac replaced an old shop vac, that was working ,but worn out. Vac has adequate suction. I've had better ,but at twice the price. I'm happy with it. Wish it came with a crevise tool, but imagine that they are easily available, at extra cost.

it is powerful and very useful. works great. Only thing you must buy the other attachments. Also if you are using it with a sander for drywall it is important to get the bags for the inside.

Review 9 for Shop Vac 8 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac

A vac that can suck and blow

There is only a couple things that need improving on this vac. The cord was too short, the top does not snap down tightly, and maybe a place to put the hose extensions when not using would be nice. Over all it seems like it will work well for the job I use it for and has not broke yet. It's worth the money.

This Vacuum works Great. The only thing it doesn't have is an on board tool carrier. But it was my mistake because I didn't even think about it at the time I bought. I could have exchanged it but this one works so great, besides it was my fault. The blower works great also.

I bought this to replaces a 5 Gallon 1.5 peak HP Shop Vac which I have had for 10 years. No disappointments here, you just can't beat the quality of this brand. Great product!

Does everything it's supposed to do. Nice and quiet, but quite powerful. I've always trusted ShopVac, and always will. Thanks, Wal-Mart, for offering such a good deal on this "sucker". :D

This is a wet dry vaccum with blower. And it works great so far! You can use it to vacuum dry or wet spills. Really picks up all the fine dust and dirt. Also can be used as a blower for leaves and water outside. Just switch the hose to the other side. Easy emptying.
We love it!

This is a good product, only real problem with it is that the cord is too short, so order a long extension cord to go with it, or plan to have to use an extension cord. That is the only problem I have with it. Works great, could have a little more power I guess but then I should have gone with the other one.

A Handyman/carpenter and for many of my jobs this is perfect. Had a smaller one for years but the wife bought this for an early Xmas present.
Also powerful enough to blow leaves!
