Craftsman 9 gal. Wet-Dry Vac, Tank Style, 4.0 Peak hp —
And I finally bought this one after some research and reading the reviews posted here. The pickup is very good. I am disappointed in how short the power cord is--actually had to connect it to an extension cord in order to vacuum any distance. I've only every used 1-2 other shop vacs, and my experience is still the same --they are not easily maneuvered. Not only is the power cord short, the hose is not very flexible. Overall, it's OK but I wish it was better designed.
