Perfect size for home use. My old 6 gal shop vacuum was too bulky. I like this 3 gal size better for small jobs around the house. It has plenty of power for small to medium jobs and is easy to move around. It is a bit quieter than other vacs I have owned. Having an exhaust port so I can use the hose as a blower is really nice. Another good feature is the use of real clamps to lock the motor assembly to the collection bucket. I also like the nice big on/off switch. My only complaint - a small one - is that the power cord is shorter than other vacs I have had. That's why they make extension cords.This is a great wet/dry vacuum! I'm not a professional wood-worker, but I can make a decent sized mess and this thing has handled all my dirt with ease. It has great suction and plenty of tools and extensions for all your cleaning needs. I like the disposable bags and purchased 3 additional bags for down the road (Stanley 19-3101 9-12 gallon Disposable Filters). I would highly recommend this product to others.I love this little vacuum, perfect size for the small remodeling jobs I get into.If it had a longer hose it would be perfect.Wish it came with a crevice tool but other than that, I really like it. Powerful suction and lightweight. Hopefully it will last.Very happy with purchase of this wet/ dry vacuum. Has maybe the longest electrical cord of all i looked into before buying and has strong suction power too. I like that i can store attachments onboard as well.Exactly what I expected.Good value.This shop vac works great for the size. The motors pretty strong to.
