Reliable!

I love my Craftsman 16 gal. Wet/Dry Vac.! We have been getting some water in our basement with the snow melting, and this has been a life saver! It really does fill up fast and you have to be careful to remember to dump it before it does, otherwise it is to heavy to dump. ( I guess I should not scare you, as my husband has no problem dumping it when it is full) My vac. is several years old, and my husband uses it all summer on the patio, and other outdoor chores and it is just as efficient as it was the day we bought it three years ago. Because of the durable plastic it is made of, it even looks...

wet/dry vac

i really love this craftsman wet and dry vacuum. i really love using this vacuum when i clean out my car. i just plug in my extension cord and make it reach outside and then plug it into this vacuum cleaner and i use it. i really love this when it's winter time and when i get into my car it gets really wet i just use this wet dry vacuum and it cleans it up.

i never have to worry about getting water into this vacuum and it messing it up because it's used for that purpose too. i recommend this to evryone.

Best for the money

I bought a 4.5 HP 12 gallon ShopVac and ended up returning it once I saw this item in Sears. It is nearly the same price as what I paid for the ShopVac and nearly twice the machine. The hose is large enough so larger items don't clog it up and it has a nice array of attachments. The extra filter it comes with is also a plus. I really don't think you can go wrong with this one.

LOVE IT!

This vaccum i just what i needed. Not only does it have power, but it has plenty of attachments. It also came with an extra filter. We are building a new house, and i had to have a wet/dry vac. I looked everywhere, but came to Sears because of their reputation. We attach the attachment hose directly to our planer, saws, etc. It saves so much work. No more particles in the air!. The large tank saves on dumping time. I recommend this to anyone that is doing a remodel or new build.

Better than expected

I got this as a gift when I wanted a shop vac. It worked great as a vaccuum and then I accidentally discovered that it also had a blower capability. That was a wonderful discovery! When I am working in my shop, I don't want to use my gas blower because the gas fumes are too potent. Now I have the ability to blow everything off and suck it up. Well worth buying. I have had no problems with it.

Worth the Investment

I did some considerable research when looking for a wet/dry vac. This one was very moderately priced and has a ton of power. I started vacumming my garage, but then tried blowing everything out with the 160 mph winds. I was able to blow even the smallest amount of sawdust out of the cracks in my garage. Excellent tool. I wouldn't recommend all Craftsman tools, but this one I will endorse.

16Gal. 80th Anniversary Vac.

Product performs well, and upgraded power, and tools on board are a welcome feature. Still have first 16 gallon vacuum I bought in 1985, and it still works great; hope this one does as well.

Great Product

I found this shop vac to be very handy and quite powerful. I have a 20 year old Craftsman shop vac that I had bought for a similar price. This unit has more features and is a great deal. The price was very reasonable compared to other brands.
