A great investment for all people that have dust problems
I purchased Model 16004QV. This is one great dust collecting machine. I used a 2 1/2 to 1 1/4 inch adapter to hook my Porter Cable sander to the vacuum. In my kitchen I have Parquet floors that needed refinishing. I sanded the floor three times and applied poly after each sanding. After the final coat had dried I used a wet paper towel to wipe the counter tops, absolutley no dust on counters. The only regret that I have is that the Turbo Carpet Head and Deluxe Floor tool were not available from Tool Crib. I purchased these seperately from Love-less Ash Company. I almost lost my vac. when my wife used the carpet head in the house. It vacuums carpets better than the Kirby or other machines I have used. The crevice tool supplied really gets the dust and dirt out of corners and on top of base boards. I don't ever plan on sanding again without my Love-less attached to the sander. I can see no reason to have a dust table to sand on when you can purchase this vacuum so economical. It is a must for every woodworkers shop. ... Read more

Man, that thing is tiny...
I knew it would be small when I saw 1.5 gallon, but it was disappointing how small it is. I was hoping it would be more like the big ones, just shrunk proportionally. It's not that quiet as everyone says, but it is very portable, which is why I'll keep it. Don't buy this if you want something industrial, that it certainly is not. If you want something that will take care of small-mid sized jobs, it's your vacuum. It has average amounts of power but if I had to do it over again, I would not have purchased this one.

Everyone should own one!
After using a 5 gallon "classic" Shop-Vac for a number of years, we decided it was time for a change. The 5 gallon was noisy, hard to maneuver, and took up too much space in our apartment.

We purchased the 1.5 Gallon Shop-Vac "AllAround" after searching through Shop-Vac's website. For our use, the 1.5 gallon is quite adequate in size.

We were amazed to find that it was indeed a significant improvement over our "classic" 5 gallon model.

First, the 1.5 gallon model has 1.5 horsepower; this is the same amount of power that comes from the classic 5 gallon model we owned. Additionally, the 1.5 gallon model comes with a locking hose (Making it easier to pull along) and a carrying handle right on top of the motor housing.

Additionally, upon opening the box, we were impressed to find a bag retainer for the dry filter bags. This is a wonderful addition; our 5 gallon classic model was always losing the dry filter bags, making it very cumbersome to keep clean.

The other features of the 1.5 gallon "AllAround" that are worthy of mention include an elongated 6.5 foot hose and an 18 foot (!) power cord. Shop-Vac obviously has designed this unit to be used around the house! Standard 1.25" Shop-Vac accessories fit; the unit includes most of the accessories anyone will need.

In terms of suction, this vacuum is as powerful as our classic 5-gallon model was, with one major difference... ...One can talk while using it! It's extremely quiet for a wet/dry vacuum. I no longer have a headache. It was a joy to clean around the edges of carpet and made short work of the kitchen floor.

The squat unit is very attractive, with a grey/green design in comparison to the industrial red or yellow found on the classic Shop-Vac models. It rolls easily and hasn't tipped over yet.

The unit comes with a 3-year warranty; based on my experience with the Shop-Vac brand, I expect no problems.

Definitely A Buy! A Great Little Vacuum!!!!
Small, light weight/very portable and powerful! This is a great little vacuum for multiple uses. My 16 Gallon 5 HP is great, but difficult to use in the car and around the house. Not a problem for this little beauty, it does perform! With its 18' foot cord and various attachments it will collect almost anything (excluding the cat or dog!) up to its 1.5-Gallon capacity. This unit is so small the attachments need to be stowed separately and a canister filter option is not available. If these things are important then a larger capacity selection is in order. However, I believe most people will not find these things to be of any issue. And the relative "micro" size of the unit gives it an unmatched advantage over larger, cumbersome units. I was surprised and impressed by my purchase!

BEST little vacuum
This powerful little vac is absolutely wonderful! I have had mine for 3 years, and have never had a problem with it. I have a pet rabbit, and it has proved to be the best for picking up the hair, litter box spills, and even the bun's little brown'calling cards'.
It's small enough to easily pack in a car to travel to the cabin in the woods to clean up there. The attachments are simple, and sturdy and are more then adequate to do what much bigger, more expensive vacuums do, and it cleans even better then them! And it's rugged! Mine has fallen down flights of steps several times, and not a scratch or dent - still working perfectly! I highly recommend this great product. If you have little kids, this is a must! ... Read more
