Nice vac but incomplete
By A. Blum
I like everything about this vac - the size is nice and portable, the 18' cord is great, it's on wheels so its easy to pull behind you, the suction is great, BUT... the owners manual says: "To pick up dust and dry material, you need to add the reusable dry disc filter to ensure proper filtration. ... The reusable disc filter should always be in position over the foam sleeve for dry pick-up."
Use of the dry disc filter also requires the Shop Vac mounting ring to hold it in place. Much to my surprise, the Shop Vac does not include the reusable disc filter and mounting ring with this vac. This also applies to the smaller size All Around EZ vac. Purchase of one filter and ring will set you back at least another $11. I think this is ridiculous! The filter and ring should be included in the box! Furthermore, the parts are difficult to find locally. The nation wide retailer where I purchased my vac sells the filters but does not sell the mounting ring at my local store.
Since I have the dry filters but can't find the mounting ring locally, I'll just try using a big rubber band to hold the filter on and see how that works.

Shop-Vac 5895299 Review
By T P Dellinger
The vac canister and motor is sturdy and powerful. The vac hose and assessories are flimsy and brittle. The small brush assessory shattered when it was dropped 4ft onto a contrete floor.

excellent little vac
By theskeptic
This little vacuum saved my basement during Hurricanes Irene and Lee. We had just bought the house, and did not have time to install French drains, etc., before the storm hit. During the night of Irene, water was continuously flowing into the basement from one of the basement window wells. I used the vacuum to suck it up as it flowed across the floor... all night long. The vac was a champion! (Luckily we did not lose power during the night, otherwise it would have been a disaster.) The one drawback to the vacuum is that its water-holding capacity is fairly limited. I had to empty it many, many times during that long night. I would say it will suck up maybe a gallon, maybe less, before the float switch automatically turns off the suction. If I had to do it again (please God no), I would like to have a vacuum with a larger water-holding capacity. (Although that would make it much harder to get the waste water to a suitable disposal point. The 2.5g bucket is easy to lift and carry, e.g., to empty into a toilet, so the portability factor must be considered as well.) If you will not be using this to vacuum up a flood, the small size will probably work well. It's certainly adequate for spills and things of a non-hurricane nature.
