RIDGID’s 18-Volt 9 Gal. cordless wet/dry vac takes cordless convenience and puts it in a full sized form. Cordless power is perfect for car cleaning, jobsite debris or anywhere that’s away from an outlet.

Its full-sized design lets you run continuously without having to stop and empty frequently. Included hose and accessory storage means this unit compactly stores in the home or garage. Replacement filter VF4000 and replacement dust bag VF3503, both sold separately.

This is a great investment. Use it on my table saw. Also great for cleaning your car. I recommend it.

This cordless vac has 82 CFM, which is the highest I’ve seen in a cordless vac. Normally corded vacuums run on 13-15 amps which draw a lot of power. This is why you need a higher amp hour battery to run this for any length of time. I would rather have a vacuum with higher CFM to get the job done and over with, than have a lower powered vacuum, and spend more time trying to get up every little particle with more passes, hence more battery usage.

Easy to assemble and works great.

Very good tool to have on hand. You get maybe 30 -40 minutes of use with 2 batteries. Works very well.

I use it for detaining my suburban and it gets the job done better then the vacuums at the car wash. A other plus is that it is cordless so you wont have to worry about buying a 75 foot extension cord to get the job done.

Works great. Easy to maneuver without the power cord. Only down side is it drains batteries but other than that it’s awesome.

I’m seeing a lot of people complaining about the fact that the vacuum didn’t come with batteries. Ridgid states it does not come with batteries in the overview. It also states this on the box itself. I personally would not get it if I didn’t already have the batteries as they are very expensive. But if you already have at least one 6ah then it is definitely worth it. I’m getting 30 min with 6ah and 3ah. It easily cleaned my car and still had plenty of battery life left. Perfect for household use. It’s battery powered so don’t expect it to do hours of heavy industrial work.

After 6 weeks and 2 orders it finally arrived. Performance and longevity depends on what batteries you use. The original 18V work but with less umph and doesn’t last long. Works really well with the newer style batteries. I ran it with a 6 and a 9 together and ran it for 20-25 minutes and both batteries still had 50% left. Excellent use for cleaning out vehicles. Light and really maneuverable!

It did exactly what I wanted.

Works wonderfully! Perfect for cleaning up messes and car detailing. I would suggest getting two battery’s instead of the one because it does die pretty quick if you keep it running continuously. However with that being said, that battery recharges crazy quick! Overall very satisfied, having it be cordless makes it so convenient.

Powerful to get the job done but batteries don’t last long at all. Even with the larger size battery.
Ferne Daniel (verified owner) –
Definitely a worth while purchase use it for cleaning inside and outside. Run time isn’t a issue if you have the 9ah batteries and it’s good for starter dust extraction!. Would recommend this if your looking for a big cordless vac for indoor and outdoor use

It is very light weight and very powerful

Cordless vac is fantastic.

Good vacuum but the battery runs out faster than you might expect. A 6 AH battery lasted about 30 minutes.

My only issue with this purchase is that it did not come with a battery or charger.
