Vacmaster5-Gallon* 5 Peak HP† Remote Control Wall Mount Wet/Dry Vac – VWMB508 1101

Well, a few months have passed since purchasing this item. It is solid, I am happy with it, and it does everything advertised and for my needs.Mounted it on the wall in my garage, but this is convenient enough to lift off and take wherever needed. Power/suction is fantastic.Everything was perfect for expectation - Ease, Size, and Storage capacity. Shop work, vehicle vac, and wet/dry. So very nice and great quality (most important!)

I have a long history with wet-dry vacuum cleaners and used to work for this manufacturer, currently retired. In my opinion, I know first hand that the strong suction performance, portability and low noise level is second to no other unit offered within the vacuum marketplace. Additionally, there's a unique innovative remote control which is a huge plus when supporting a very long reach, 42 feet with extended hoses and long electric cord! You can literally be vacuuming areas over 40 feet away from the wet-dry vacuum and turn the unit on/off by a handheld remote control. The unit comes with a rugged wall mount assembly that's very secure allowing you to easily lift the unit from the wall, providing you need portability. Great value as this vacuum has quality features throughout and is way under priced, should easily be retailing for around $250-300! It's definitely one of my favorite tools hanging in my garage!!

This shop vac is great. I compared prices of many other brands and this one was the best deal for the suction power, attachments, capabilities and ease of cleaning taken into account. It has a remote control which is great for convenience and not having to walk back and forth all the time. It works great! Looks good, and the bracket is really easy to put on and off.

It’s a nice vacuum with nice attachments soft flexible hoses. The remote/bluetooth switch works, but that attachment is pretty bulky and can make it harder to use in tight spaces.Suction could be better, but it is a nice wet/dry vacuum and being able to mount it in the wall does free up floor space.

This was purchased to replace a large 12 gallon rolling shop vac. with a 6' long 2.5" hose. The suction on the Vacmaster is weaker than the one I am replacing but that was expected due to the lower HP and longer hose. The biggest reason for my purchase was a smaller footprint with the wall mounted vacuum really saved me on space in my small shop/garage. The hose length can reach most of the garage and has sufficient suction to clean up saw dust and other debris. I really like the convenience of having it mounted on the wall and ready to use as needed. I also really like the remote switch at the tool end of the hose. I wont use it as a blower so cannot comment on that function.I did a side by side comparison with this Vacmaster and the Craftsman 5 gallon wall mounted shop vac, both at the same price as of this writing. The Vacmaster definitely won on the suction tug of war test I did with it, overpowering the Craftsman every time. So between the two, I kept the Vacmaster and returned the Craftsman. Also this Vac will accept vacuum bags and the Craftsman as I understand it will not.So far I am happy with this purchase.

Loving this heavy duty suction power is good. It’s perfect for my work shop. I would recommend so far. I have it for a long time and it’s working in good condition.

I'm reviewing: Vacmaster VWMB508 1101 5 Gallon Wall-Mount Wet/Dry Vacuum with Remote ControlThings I like: I like the remote on the handle. That's really helpful when starting and stopping while far from the can.The vacuum power seems to be decent.The flexible hose is great, the longer hose, meh.Things I don't like: Without the appropriate attachments, it won't pick up things like grass on a door mat, or dirt on a grooved or uneven surface very well. You can't do a "scrub" type motion. There is no brush, only rigid hard plastic nozzles.The attachments and hoses are NOT STANDARD. This means that even if I have an attachment that would do what I need, it will not fit onto this machine.The hose and extensions feel like they aren't made for use with this machine. The larger end goes over the handle, then the next piece fits larger end over that one, and the whole thing feels like it's going to fall apart. It doesn't fit together with any secure fit. The wand bends is you try to put pressure on the end tool.It is nearly impossible to push the tool along on a rug or carpet. You have to pull the tool towards you and lift/drop the handle to create the appropriate seal for suction, This is even using the opening in the handle. Uneven surfaces aren't easy.When you pull the tool towards you, many times the suction hangs up and the wand pieces come apart from each other. And it is difficult to twist the parts to get a different floor angle.I had to go over a single, pea sized rock about 15 times before the floor tool picked it up.Seriously, just really disappointed with these accessories. It needs a better floor tool, with rollers and a lift function, and it needs brushes. I tried to vacuum some grass that blew into my patio from outside weed eating, and it won't come off without brushing.I thought this would save me some work, but it's really very awkward and bulky, without the reward of a good strong clean in one pass.

Compared to a shop vac, this thing is quiet. The flexible hose is a nice accessories and you can mount this in the wall to have a central vac for your garage. Highly recommend.
