By bfrench

Pros:

Easy To Use, Powerful

Bottom Line:

Comments about Shop-Vac Shop-Vac All Around Plus Wet/Dry Vacuum:

I bought this unit to replace another shopvac. The old one still worked, but was very loud and always tipped over. This one takes care of those issues. I can drag it around the garage and it does not tip over. I was able to use it without needing to use earplugs. It worked great at sucking up garage floor debris.

Comments about Shop-Vac Shop-Vac All Around Plus Wet/Dry Vacuum:

This is the best little house hold vacuum, I have ever had. I have an upright that I use on the carpet. The shop vac I use for all my hardwood flooring, areas I cannot reach with my upright vacuum, also for above floor cleaning. This works great on my carpeted basement steps. The suction is powerful, it is light weight. I can do alot of things with this vacuum.

Service & Delivery comments:

I received my order in about 3 days, in great shape. I would order from ABT again if they had a product that I wanted or needed.

Comments about Shop-Vac Shop-Vac All Around Plus Wet/Dry Vacuum:

I purchased this shop vac for my hardwood floors.
It works great, especially the wide brush attachment. The cord is very long as is the hose. This shop vac gets into baseboard corners like you wouldn't believe.

Service & Delivery comments:

I ordered this item on line. The service from ABT was amazing...fast shipping, and FREE! Would buy from ABT again. Thank you.

This is my second purchase of this model vacuum. The first is still working great; wanted another for vacation condo. Small but powerful. Could be improved with a small round brush attachment and brushes on the floor attachment. With these attachment improvements the rating would be 5 stars.

Have one, and bought this for my mother.

Comments about Shop-Vac Shop-Vac All Around Plus Wet/Dry Vacuum:

A great general purpose vac with plenty of power.
Only downside is bags, but I bought enough to last for a number of years from another site for cheaper than direct from Shop-Vac.

Do a search, you will find them by the part#.
They have specials on 4 packages of 2 bags each.
I have 24 bags,.....I think I am set!

all the power without the bulk.

Comments about Shop-Vac Shop-Vac All Around Plus Wet/Dry Vacuum:

We use this All Around primarily as an interior household vacuum. There is no need for more power than this unit; it is small in size in my opinion for the quanity of suction produced.

The noise is a bit on the loud side . . . I don't mind because of the great performance.
The tools store extremely well in the attachable bin that comes with this great Shop-Vac product.
