High suction low air flow
By C. Williams
I was very excited to get this unit as I have been previously using a large clumsy 3.0HP (peak) shop vac on wheels. My garage floor space is limited and I really wanted something wall mounted. Two of the best additions I have ever made to my garage are over head air and power on retractable reels. I believe having a wall mounted vac with a long hose would be just as beneficial. Setup was super easy and I had the unit wall mounted with in a few minutes. It only requires one stud and three included screws and your all set. The hose mounted power switch was handy although it didn't always register the button push, sometimes it took 2-3 tries. All these features and great and the included tools are plentiful but the main issue is that that the vacuum isn't all that good at vacuuming. The unit has a good deal of suction if you block off part of the hose or put your hand over it. If you stick something heavy (ex. a small rock) into the hose it will suck it up all the way to the bucket. The problem is the unit does not move a lot of air. I looked all over trying to find the amount of CFM that this unit creates but I was unable to find any specs. If you don't move a lot of air the unit will not suck things up that aren't stuck directly under/in the hose. for instance I had some loss straw that unless I was right on top of the pieces they wouldn't budge. I even tried using the long hose the unit came with on my old shop vac. and it sucked everything as expected. Over all the unit is a good idea with poor execution. After some thorugh research on some of the online car detailing forums I ended up going with the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00196S08S?ie=UTF8&tag=flickr093-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00196S08S Bissell Garage Pro It is amazing!

Great shop vac at a great price - the wife will like the color!
By Craig Weems
This vac is meant to be wall mounted however once mounted you can pull the vac out of the mount easily assuming that it is not full of water as a result of a wet cleanup. Being wall mounted suggests that the user will need a long hose and it does come with two that add up to 21'. One hose is a standard stiff cheap vac hose that all the others use. The second is a flexible and stretchy one (together they make up the 21'). For those that will want a long one piece hose similar to what they have at a carwash I suggest you look at Mr. Nozzle (here at Amazon) or go to your local pool supply store. This vac uses 1 1/4" hoses so make sure and buy the right hose and/or adapters to make it work. I've used mine for almost a year with no problems other than my need for a 25' one piece hose.
Only issue: as of right now it looks like you have to go to Vacmaster for filters. You shouldn't need a new one if you gently clean it. If you have compressed air it is easy. (Amazon, it would be nice to be able to buy them here)

JokeMaster
By Rae
I would absolutely NOT recommend this vacuum or any product from Vacmaster or CLEVA North America. In less than a year the Vacmaster stopped working. It was still under the 2 year warranty. We called Cleva, the Warranty Inspection Group, and were told to "send in only the power head, top part only, it snaps off". We did just this, boxed it and sent it in.
The vacuum was shipped back to us with a letter saying it was out of warranty because we took it apart. (I called the 800 number again, just to confirm the instructions we were given. And we were given the same). However they continued to say we had taken the vacuum apart and voided the warranty.)
Customer Service - NOT, Customer Focused - NOT, Shouldn't they have called us prior to spending the money to ship the "dead" item back to us? So we are out of $130+ but VacMaster/Cleva lost a customer and I will continue to spread the word on their poor customer support. DO NOT PURCHASE VACMASTER/CLEVA PRODUCTS - SPREAD THE WORD !
