Vacmaster Professional Wet/Dry Vacuum – Tackle Any Cleaning Job with Professional Performance

Bill Robinson: I’m utter hell on my shop vacs, using them for just about everything, from construction cleanup (I do major and minor renovation work) to just cleaning the hard floors in the house (stay on the carpet, Dyson!). I have burnt out at least one shop vac from every brand, and have not been able to even slow down this beast. I have one for the house, and one for job sites, and I even have the carpet cleaner version as well. Like the best tools, it keeps it simple, easy to use, empty, and clean, and it works better than the rest every time.

John S: There are only a couple of things that keep me from giving 5 stars. Overall the Vacuum performs very well and is easy to use. I shopped and compared A LOT before even deciding to get a new shop vacuum and finally choosing the Vac Master.
My 20 plus year old Shop-Vac brand was just not working well for the tasks I need a vac in my shop and garage to do. (but it was still running) The most challenging is cleaning up in my machine shop/metal working area to avoid metal chips getting places I definitely don't want swarf from a Lathe or Milling machine to end up. Especially cleaning up the floor well so I am not tracking chips around on my shoes. Plus all the typical tasks like garage clean up, vacuuming out the car, the laundry room and dryer vent etc. I have applied this vacuum to all of those tasks and more in the days since receiving it and it handled everything well. I was honestly impressed with its cleaning ability and it seems to have a good balance between raw suction power and moving a significant volume of air. (both are important but if either is lacking the performance of the vacuum will be lacking as well) It cleaned metal chips and even picked up 3/8 inch hardware and...

Mackerel Bob: My initial thoughts on the Vacmaster Professional - Professional Wet/Dry Vac, 12 Gallon, Beast Series is extremely positive. The only assembly needed is to remove the components from inside the tank and attaching the four feet. That's it.

The 2-1/2" hose fit the outlet ports of my WEN 6" jointer, 9" bandsaw, belt/disc sander, Skil router table and DeWalt DWE7541 table saw perfectly. The inside dimension of these outlet ports is 2-1/4 inch, same as the outside dimension of the vac hose end. Trying to find adaptors to adapt my Shop Vac, which has a smaller diameter hose, to my tools has been more than challenging. The Vacmaster just made my life a whole lot simpler.

It has a nice long 20 foot long and highly flexible power cord. The floor tool has an interchangeable brush and squeegee and empty it weighs approximately 15 pounds. It just makes you want to go out and grind up some wood.

Cliente de Amazon: Es algo ruidosa, pero el poder que tiene es impresionante. La he usado principalmente en el taller para el aserrín y un par de veces para limpiar muebles, de verdad que estoy impresionado con el rendimiento que ha tenido hasta ahora.

Compré la de 12 gal que es algo grande y puede ocupar mucho espacio, pero no me parece un inconveniente (por eso escogí el modelo)

davedave: I bought this vacuum a few weeks ago for a home improvement project and just to have around. I went with the Vacmaster brand because I have a smaller Vacmaster with the small hose and despite its size the performance has been very good.

Let me start by saying I am sort of a neat freak. I am the master cleaner of the house when it comes to cleaning up carpet stains or big spills or things like that. I have always had a shop vac, just never one with the big hose.

So in doing demolition in the kitchen I had to borrow the plumbers big shop vac to suck up chunks of wood and sheet rock and nails, etc. And I thought damn that works well! My little one is great for a dust and tiny little things but that’s about it.

By now you may be thinking I don’t have anything to compare this to really… Only my smaller one. You are correct. So that makes this whole review kind of pointless because I don’t know if another brand of big shop vac like this one would do as well, but I don’t care. This thing has many features that I am very pleased with. Sure, you might go with a craftsman, or a rigid, or a Dewalt. And I’m sure all those vacuums are awesome. But I’ve become...

Bob: Sucks big time! Just what I wanted. I use it with my home made cyclonic separator, therefore a larger canister tank is unnecessary.

Proud Single Dad: Overview

I bought this to use on the end of a drywall sander. My original vacuum was not set up for using disposable vacuum bags.

First and foremost…really impressive suction (could likely take the watch right off your arm) The design is really good, and I like the onboard storage (less chance I lose something critical) The flat top is also handy…and you won’t ever know you need it…until you have it 

The inner bag and exhaust system do a very good job of keeping the dust in and the noise down. I was expecting there to be at least a minor issue with fine drywall dust making it’s way out the exhaust…but that was not the case.

It was a little pricey…but you won’t remember the purchase price unless you regret the purchase. How much was this thing again…?

Far superior to any other brand name shop vac I have owned.

Pros
• Powerful suction
• Quiet for the amount of power it has
• Just enough attachments and onboard storage so you don’t lose them
• The ability to wrap the plastic hose around the top of the unit is genius!

Cons
• A bit of an investment…but you get what you pay...

Just the facts: If purchasing from Canada this item is purchased "as is". Without warranty. Vac motor burnt up after one month of regular use. A vacuum bag was always installed and the filter was kept clean. The manufacturer warranty is deferred to a Quebec warehouse, info@mecanair.net which defers warranty to the re-sealer.
