Looking at these two wet/dry shop vac's from Lowes.

Kinda pricey if there are some better options out there ( I'm sure there are ) please direct me.

I do like the one that has the leaf blower/ car blower attachment for drying the car quicker


But the small one was 46 and the large 109 :o

Seems pricey

I have a shop vac brand.......I think mine is a 14gal. Bought it at lowes 5-6 years ago and still works like a charm.
 
I tried a small one from lowes and it broke on me within a year, Iv'e been using a Home Depot rigid ever since. This is the one I use and its a beast.

What price range is the Ridgid ?


Are those prices for the ones from lowes reasonable or can I do better on pricing?

I want a good power vac but I really dont want to drop 100 bones if I don't need to..

I really do like the detachable blower since I will be mobile

Still better than the 109 from lowes..

I will see if I can find that ridgid from home depot and use a 10% off coupon and save another 8 or 9 bucks...

Thanks for the heads up:xyxthumbs:
 
Craftsman 16-gal 6.5-peak hp Wet/Dry Vac with Detachable 265 mph Blower for 107.99. 265 MPH is pretty good for a shop vac the one I have is only 205.
 
I have the Hoover GUV; it is mounted in my detailing trailer and provides incredible suction, especially with a commercial vacuum nozzle (like what you see in gas station parking lots) and the narrow crevice tool it comes with. Good luck!
