Overall, I really like this vacuum. It is lightweight and easily carried. Due to something related to the covid-19 virus, they are not shipping the HEPA filter originally planned and instead are including a dust filter with a lesser filter. The use of the dust filter keeps the main filter clean but it significantly reduces the capacity to maybe 2 gallons. As a first time user of dust bags, l now realize it is a pain in the butt to retrieve something that was accidentally sucked up. I also purchased the auto kit which includes a nicer 10′ hose. I typically plug that hose into the included 7′ hose. While this configuration works okay, you cannot pull the vacuum around by the hose as the hoses will pull apart. I’m struggling but I’m going to forego more comments about the auto kit since this review is for the vacuum.

I got this as a Christmas gift and was perfect size and works like a champ. Wish the credits brush was a bit longer but works great

We already have a large vac that we purchased about 10 years ago. We took it out to the new shop we built. I said I wanted a smaller one for the house. Love it reliable and not 1 issue ever! Thank you for making such a great product that lasts for years to come!

The vacuum works as expected. Somtimes the heavier items vacuumed up fall back out of the hose.

This vacuum is canister sized and does just what it’s supposed to; it really sucks

This is my third Ridgid Shop Vac. and they are all excellent! I wanted a smaller more compact size as my needs have changed. This 5 Peak HP is just as strong as my previous larger units but saves on space. This is important as my shop is growing.

It’s a great small machine! More suction than my previous brand 5hp machine. Lightweight and well made. Highly recommend the 10′-0″ more flexible hose made by Rigid. Original hose is the only negative I have about this product.

This a smaller vacuum on wheels but it has the power of a full size if not more! Got it to vacuum my cars and it does a great job! Now it is my go to vacuum for just about everything! I have a wall mounted Ridged that is great but this one due to its size and mobility, is perfect!

Solid vacuum the included black hose is to short and rigid though. The orange car hose is more versatile.
