## Description

RIDGID shop vacuum cleaner 3-gallon portable wet dry vacuum cleaner for car or home is a compact and portable wet dry vacuum cleaner that is designed to deliver performance of a vacuum 2 times its size. Its lightweight, small size and large carry handle provide comfortable portability as a RIDGID wet dry auto vacuum for car. The built-in suction-powered dustpan makes car vacuum cleaning quick and easy.

Review: Sucks, but in a good way - I use this to clean my guinea pig's cage out. It's got lots of suction (it's a little loud, but not horribly so). The bags are worthless--I thought I needed the bags so I ordered more, but I can't get the thing to work with bags in it. It has a little slider thingy on the hose to adjust the suction, which is REALLY useful so that I don't keep sucking up the fleece bedding in my guinea pig's cage--I just slide it all the way open. When I'm vacuuming hay off the carpet around the cage, I close it all the way and it makes quick work of the hay. The attachment that it comes with is pretty handy--I use it exclusively instead of the bare hose. I have never really needed the little LED light that comes on the attachment, and I kind of feel that it's a bit of a gimmick, but it may be useful for auto detailing. I don't know. This is a good basic shop vac that stores well in my house.
Review: Great Size! - I purchased this wet/dry vac for use on our boat as well as cleanup on small projects around the house. The size is great (especially for the boat!). It is very portable and while you do have to empty it more often due to the smaller tank size, for us it is still worth it to have the portability of the vacuum. It is easy to empty and clean. Overall, this product has all of the quality that you would expect from a Rigid Wet/Dry Vac with the added bonus of being easy to tote around.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sucks, but in a good way

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small and powerful. A good buy.
*by M***N on August 18, 2016*

I bought this to replace a small shop vac that has served me well but has developed bad bearings. Rather than replace it with another one as I have done twice before, I tried this one. There are a lot of good things about this vac. It has a nice squarish shape and places for the hose, nozzle, cord, and brush that make it easy to stow. It has great suction. It has better build quality than the shop vac even though they're both plastic. Here's what I don't like. This vac was made for cleaning cars and I'm sure it's great at that. For around the shop it needs more attachments. The hose is a larger size so normal attachments don't fit. Look for ones used on larger vacs. It has an unusual connection on the vac end with a little latch, so it wants a proprietary hose, or you could splice a standard hose onto the end of the one it comes with. For general purposes, the hose could be a few feet longer and lighter duty. It extends but it takes enough pull that the vac will skid along the floor instead. The cord needs to be about 5' longer. The bags that come with it should be thrown out. Even with the pleated filter removed the dust bag will reduce the suck to super wimpy. It's hard to believe they didn't test this. Also, the bags look like they are really made for another vac. I put a bag from my festool vac in there and the great suck returned. It also sucks greatly with the pleated filter. So far I like this better than my old one. It's more powerful and easier to manage and stow. Now I want to see how it holds up.
