Simple to operate, plenty of vacuum.I can adapt it to most of my power tools...table saw, sanders, planner etc. One of the better buys I have made lately. Recommended.Chris.

I bought this a day ago and promptly returned it. I couldn't believe the typical cartridge filter that is the mainstay of most vacuums of this nature (when dry vacuuming) is absent from the included items and considered an optional extra. I was disappointed at the small vacuum head and more disappointed with the suction. It seems many of these vacuums now have small 35mm hoses which I don't think is cut out for floor waste such as wood chips or brick pebbles. My earlier Ozito had a hose double the diameter of this and was brilliant at sucking up difficult items and leaves. I don't think a 35mm hose could do leaves without clogging quickly. It pained me to return a Karcher brand product but I was left with no option as I think for +$200 this has been made cheaply. I ... MoreI bought this a day ago and promptly returned it.

I have since bought an Ozito 1400Watt Wet/Dry vacuum and it seems to be more powerful and has the included cartridge filter, a dust dislodging function to purge the cartridge without opening it and has a connection to work with power tools that create dust. Whilst it too is a 35mm hose, $128 with a stainless telescopic pipe seems a better choice and value for money. I wish I had read other reviews which also pointed out the pitfalls.

It's a great, robust wet and dry vac. It has fantastic suction power and I use it as a garage vac, for cleaning vehicle upholstery and carpets and around the house to pick up leaves and dirt. Great value for money!!

Great for dust/ floors but not great on carpet. Used to clean up post reno and was great. Will need different vacuum as everyday for home

Poor quality
1 November 2022

Purchased this earlier today and wish I had read reviews here first. Quality is extremely poor with the hose clip broken out of the box. Went karcher for this reason but should have gone ozito or ryobi

This shop vac sux
30 October 2021

Bought specifically for use in my workshop relying on the strength of brand and reputation. Deeply disappointed. Hose blocks when collecting shavings and leaves. Less suck than our beat-up Kambrook it replaces. Bag looks like it was designed for a different machine as it simply does not fit. Bad buy.

Useless for the job its intended for
4 June 2022

I bought this for my workshop and within 3 weeks it's suction was all but gone, no blockage or holes in seal, it just lost 70% of suction, hose also blocks far to easily as its corrogated as someone has said before. If using for woodwork mess avoid it.
