very simple to assemble, and it did its work. Filter get dirty pretty quick, but I just shake the dirt off outside. Suction wise, it is pretty good, may not as strong as my household Dyson, but to its kind, it is pretty good. A little heavy than I thought, and a little big than I thought.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought another portable vacuum from another store during the after thanksgiving sales and ended up returning it because it did not have a place to store all the attachements. I was very happy to see this vacuum come across my online sale ads and have the blower option! I had also returned a blower I was not happy with as it was a gas blower that kept getting plugged every time I used it, so far this blower works great even if it is attached to a cord and the vacuum has great suction and for now I am able to find the filters for it as well, as my old one they no longer make filters for. Great deal for the price! Thank you!

I purchased this item online while on sale. I can't complain at all on the quality of the product for the price I paid. I've only had the opportunity to use it 2 times so far, and it works great.

Nice and compact, and a surprising amount of suction. Loud... but that was expected. Feels durable and built to last. The drain plug at the bottom is also very useful after picking up water. For me, the only con so far is that it does not accept the VF3502 filter bag which can be used on the 12 gallon model WITHOUT the detachable blower. (Please, Ridgid, come up with some kind of adapter or workaround?)
Overall, though, a really amazing value if you get this on sale!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great basic Shop Vac. I got this on an amazing deal, so its great. Even at normal price it is a good deal. I do wish it had a reducer on it so you could fit smaller attachments on it. I also wish it had the better filter as standard. At the price I paid, the filter costs more then the vac kit.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Awesome vac. This was an upgrade to a smaller version. Don't underestimate the size of this thing.. It definitely takes up a bit of space. Its a little hard to maneuver around a small area, but the quality is unmatched! A+. Would buy again!

Great capacity but still short enough to store under my workbench (it's shorter than advertised, too) The removable blower is suprisingly useful. Suction is great, check out the SCFM ratings compared to the others- this vacuum really moves some air. My hot water heater blew about a month after I bought this vacuum... ended up vacuuming up about 70 gallons of water from my carpet with the vac. Would buy it again in a heartbeat!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I picked this vac up at what turned out to be a price mistake . Even at double that price(the regular sale price) it is a good value. I have always had the other brand units and this one far outperforms them. I loved the detachable blower for blowing the drywall dust out of my house after a kitchen remodel. Also the large suction hose and included paper filter are far better than other brands.
Yes, I recommend this product.
