    Calidad: es craftsman, son de por vida.
    Potencia: es muy buena potencia apra aspirar el coche sin problemacada semana sin problema.
    El tamaño es muy cómodo para moverla para uso en casa o coche.
    Considero no es apra udos rudos o muy prolongados ya que es pequeña pero con potencia. Si respetas eso durará mucho.

    Easy to carry. I used the blower to separate tree debris from gravel. Our high powered blower just scattered the gravel .

    I can generally count on Craftsman to put out a good product. This little (2.5 gal) wet/dry vac is no exception. I have a small shop in my home from converting one bedroom (don’t have a garage and health prevents me from converting the storage building out back). So for the small products (desk sets, stationary racks, clocks, and small desk clocks) I need a small vacuum that is easy to keep, easier to use, and will serve for years to come. This unit has done all I want, so far, and there is nor reason it won’t continue to be addition to the home shop.

    I did not need a really big shop vac as I already have what I call a monster shop vac. I wanted something that will help me clean up an assembly area. Lots of gritty stuff and debris and dust. I wanted something I can easily move around and not be cumbersome like my monster shop vac. This area is only 16 by16 feet.
    Wow was I surprised as this shop vac met my needs exactly. It cleans up everything I asked it to clean up. It has two different tools that one works great for tiny crevices, the other will cover more territory.
    I have nothing but great things to say about this manuervable but powerful shop vac.
    What a fantastic value for me. I cannot wait to use it on my truck as I always had difficulty with my larger shop vac. It sure sucks up a lot of debris. Expect it to work on medium to light tasks. Expect it to last for a long time.

    This little shop vac is AMAZING! The suction is so much better than my Dyson hose attachment! The only carpet I have in my home is on my stairs and it now looks brand new! Wish I would have thought to purchase one sooner! I haven’t needed it for anything wet yet, but I sure it works great!

    Smaller than expected but I bought it only to vacuum out our cars where the rats eat their olives and I have lots of 💩 and seeds in there. Didn’t want to use my house vacuum for that. I took out to bag for dry vacuum first thinking this would not work without it but it was really easy to use and sucked up all “debris”. Could use a longer cable but I used an extension cord. Easy to clean too and pretty light to move around.

    I experience haboobs in Phoenix and they leave very fine dirt on my patio, which is impossible to sweep up. This wet vacuum picks up all of the dirt with no problems. It’s powerful and sucks up the water and dirt extremely efficiently. It’s small enough to maneuver around my pool pump. The 2.5 gallon capacity is a perfect size for the small job of cleaning up my patio after a dust storm and rain. Cleaning the vacuum is easy. I would highly recommend this wet/dry vacuum.

    This little vacuum surprised me with how capable it is. The 2.5-gallon size makes it easy to carry around the house or garage, but it still has enough suction to handle sawdust, pet messes, and small spills without issue. The included attachments are straightforward and useful—especially for corners and car interiors. The hose is a bit shorter than a full-size model, but that’s the tradeoff for portability. For quick cleanups where dragging out a big shop vac feels like overkill, this one hits the sweet spot.

    This is a nice size. I like that it didn’t need any assembly and it didn’t come with a bunch of extra junk that I have to store. I bought this to replace my Bissell mini floor cleaner. I have had to purchase a new carpet cleaner about every year that I give pretty hard use. This time I used a bucket and a scrub brush and sucked up the mess with my new small wet vac. This was so much easier than dealing with the two tanks and cleaning out the attachments that always get all hair clogged with the mini carpet cleaner. Nice suction on this little vac.
