Vacmaster Professional Beast Series VFB511H 0201 5-Gallon 5.5 Peak HP Wet/Dry Vac, Black

I've been using the Vacmaster Professional Beast Series 5-Gallon 5.5 Peak HP Wet/Dry Vacuum for a few months now, and I can confidently say it's one of the best shop vacs I've ever owned.Performance: The suction power is outstanding. Whether it's sawdust, drywall debris, or water from a small leak, this vacuum handles it all with ease. The 5.5 Peak HP motor lives up to the "Beast" name – it's incredibly strong and efficient.Portability & Size: Despite its powerful motor, the unit is compact and lightweight enough to move around the garage, workshop, or even up stairs without any hassle. The 5-gallon tank is a great middle ground — large enough for most cleanup jobs but still easy to empty and store.Build Quality: Very solid and durable construction. The hose and attachments feel sturdy, not flimsy like with some other brands. The cord length is generous, and the onboard storage for tools is super convenient.Noise Level: For a vacuum this powerful, it’s surprisingly quiet. It’s not silent, of course, but it’s much less shrill than other wet/dry vacs I’ve used.Versatility: I love that it handles both wet and dry messes seamlessly. It's been a game changer for car detailing and cleaning up around the house and garage.Final Thoughts: If you're looking for a compact, powerful, and well-built wet/dry vac, the Vacmaster Beast is a fantastic choice. It's earned a permanent place in my workshop. Highly recommend!

This vacuum is better than any of the pumps at paid car washes. It’s amazing how strong the suction is. It’s small, built well, and easily maneuvered for car detailing. It has the power of vacuums 2x its size. It really is a beast. The included dry bag makes cleanup a breeze too.My vehicles have never looked so good because of this little shop vac

This is the most strongest vacuum I have ever used.The suction is amazing and I am very impressed.This is easy to use and to clean with and its an excellent price for the quality you get.This is such a good item that my friend is buying one now.

Good machine and great value. Long hose and cord. Lightweight and moves easily on the included wheels. Great suction. BUT buy an extra extension wand. You’ll thank me. Your back will send me flowers! I am 5’7” tall. You cannot stand upright and reach the floor with this wand. If you’re planning on using this to vacuum a floor (house, shed, garage) you’ll need an extra wand.

I use this for my vehicles. The power is amazing, I now use this as an extractor to spot clean the seats and carpet - it pulls out most of the water leaving it areas clean and nearly dry - This is just the right size for vehicles. I've had this over a year and have had zero issues, it still operates like the day I first used it. This is the best wet/dry vac I have owned hands down.

I love this product. It has great suction, build quality, price, and most of all, portability. I wanted something that could go on a shelf in the garage, and that I could easily carry upstairs and use inside my house when needed. It does that perfectly.If I could I might give it 4.5 stars. I just want to add that buyers should realize that by sizing it down so small they did sacrifice stability, and the ability to neatly keep everything together. I find it tips over pretty easily. The two places to store your attachments on the unit are too close, and the method for storing the hose is awkward (I just take it off when not in use).None of these are big deals, just something to be aware of.

The media could not be loaded. Finally! Here is a video of this machine actually being used! Dang good vacuum! But, if you expect it to suck up pet hair and tiny debris from the carpet that is installed in vehicles, let met tell you…nothing can do that on its own. The pile of carpet in vehicles is a cruel joke on humanity!Stop reading reviews of vacuums and buy this one. I already did all the research.If you have pet hair in your vehicle, pre clean it with a Chom- Chom pet roller. Then vacuum with the cleaner. If you have vinyl floor mats then use a dry washcloth to help the cleaner along as seen in the review video. Be careful though, the machine is so powerful it will suck up the washcloth in a split second. If you do suck up anything with the cleaner simply insecure hose from the base and unscrew the filter on the outside opposite end of it and screw the hose to the cleaner. Turn it on and reverse blow.I elected to purchase the model without wheels. I placed my cleaner inside of a laundry basket and it makes for an easy job of keeping the hose and cord stored.

A perfit size vac, go anywhere on the job or shop use, great suction power and quieter than other I have used tothis is a professional 5 gal 6 peak hp I did order a set of casters to ease mobility,not really needed I used threaded 5/16 " stem 2" casters fit perfectly in holes
