CarCareTruth's Analysis

Last reviewed May 20, 2026

TL;DR Corded 9-gallon wet/dry shop vac; 90 CFM manufacturer-stated (no independent test found), 5 peak HP (marketing figure). Noise: 68 dB per spec row — quiet for the category. No UL or ETL listing confirmed. Cartridge filter, not HEPA. Early ratings 4.8★ across 53 reviews.

What it is and how it performs

A 9-gallon 120V/8A corded shop vacuum with a 7-foot hose. Hose diameter is 1-7/8 inch — non-standard; 2.5-inch accessories need an adapter. Wet/dry mode is manufacturer-rated; float shutoff undocumented. Washable cartridge filter, no HEPA. At 11 lbs it's compact for the class.

Who should buy this — and who should skip it

A reasonable pick for homeowners managing garage-floor cleanup after auto repairs or spill pickup — 9-gallon capacity handles most single-session jobs. Skip if fine-dust capture from power tools is the priority; a dedicated dust extractor with higher-efficiency filtration is better suited.

Safety and environmental impact

No UL or ETL listing found; CE marking unconfirmed from a primary source. At 68 dB per manufacturer spec, noise is below the 85 dB occupational-safety threshold. No chemical exposure risk.
