The DeWalt 16 gal shop vac is really solid. Good wheels and rolls nice and the vacuum power is strong. The hose is stiff and will not kink or crush however the downside is it makes it a little difficult to do basic floor vacuuming also the hose does not rotate/swivel. The filter appears to stay secure. The storage bag is ok but it would be nice if there were dedicated slots to hold the two hose extensions. Unlike my old shop vac, this one is very quiet. overall Im satisfied with the shop vac.

This vac is great for cleaning out my car or taking on small projects around the house or at my workshop. The best part to me is that everything is easily stored on the unit. The accessories all store in the lid and there is a hose storage area on the side. I'll be taking this vac with on trips and it will for sure make for a convenient vac around the garage. Since it's DeWalt, I'm confident in the durability and quality, and know it will last.

The vacuum really works great and has a lot of power. Also, it rolls around very nicely and isn't always tipping over like many other shop vacs I've had. The only criticism I woud make is the hose could be be nicer.The hard plastic hose is just stiff and difficult to use. I am only rating the delivery 3 stars because there was some unexplained delay and hte delivery took sevral days longer than promised.

I have yet to have a shop vac that I love but this comes close. The pros, the handle and the big wheels on the back makes moving it around the shop so much easier. Comes with a lot of accessories including a muffler which I haven't tried, a couple of bags and your typical range of nozzles.\nThe only con is, the hose is very stiff. Maybe over time it will loosen up. Otherwise I'm very happy with it.

Just what I needed to upgrade from smaller units for dust collection in my woodshop. Coupled with Oneida separator and could not be happier!

we will see how loong it lasts, but the design, power, maneuverability are all great. I think this may be the best shop vac I ever owned.

Love this thing. Very useful for dust extraction for my orbital sander, table saw, and miter saw.

Vacuum does well enough, but plug end is cheap. Metal is only half of the prong and prone to break.

Great suction, hose is a little stiff. Rolls around easy.\r\nI would recommend it.

Perfect size and works amazingly

The DeWALT DXV04T is a nice sized portable vacuum mad of sturdy plastic and holds 4 gallons of material (wet or dry) and has a powerful 5 HP motor. It reminds me of a toolbox and the rectangular shape with fold down handle will be easy to store. Other nice design features are the double acting lid latches and the lid has a foam gasket to provide a good seal which helps provide great suction. The vacuum also includes locations to store the hose and accessories. The long super flexible hose can also be conveniently stored in the upper section. There are 2 sets of clips that hold the rigid pipes conveniently on the side of the tub which can provide extra reach when needed. The suction hose also has a latch on the end to prevent the hose from pulling out unintentionally. The vacuum can utilize a paper collection bag connected inside to provide higher filtration that the standard foam filter installed on the motor intake. The suction was great. I was also impressed on how quiet the vacuum was. I made some noise level measurement with an Android smartphone using the AudioTool v7.6. The phone was not calibrated against any standard but the relative numbers would still indicate differences. The measurements were taken 1 foot away from the center of the motor housing. One reading with the hose attached and the suction end in open air, the other reading with the end of the hose blanked off with the palm of my hand. The reading is in dB , higher numbers indicate higher sound pressure and the average frequency is also given. \r\n\r\nVacuum Sound- open hose Sound- closed hose \r\nDeWALT DXV04T 87@5kHz 96@6.35kHz \r\nCraftsman 113.177040 96@2.47kHz *105@5.87kHz \r\nBissell 6594 91@460Hz 96@524Hz \r\nDyson Ball VF5 89@5.4kHz 97@6.3kHz \r\n \r\n* This value is of concern if you are exposed for even short period as hearing damage can occur. \r\nSomething that impressed me is the DeWALT is quieter than the Dyson which has only been used a few times. I even repeated the measurement to ensure confidence. \r\n \r\nA negative comment is; \r\nThe vacuum is a little heavy to hold for long periods. It does not include any casters to pull along as you move about. The manual page 6, step 2 says to “Attach Heavy-duty rubberized casters” but none are included and there is no indication of where they would be installed if they were in the box. I think the original design must have included casters but somewhere along the way they were dropped and the manual was not edited. I built a small plywood platform with wheels and use 1/8” elastic shock cord to provide easy fastening. !/4”elastic cord would work better but I didn’t have any. \r\n I would still recommend this product even given this oversight of casters,

What a fantastic vacuum!!! DeWalt has done it again with superb engineering. This baby is replacing 3 other shop vacs. Two 2 1/2 gallon and a 5 gallon brand name. This DeWalt fits under my bench shelf where neither of my 2 1/2 gallon ones would. AND it is really powerful. They designed a closed storage compartment for attachments and good solid holders for the wands. There is an open compartment on the one end that will hold the entire hose and a cord winding bracket that is actually large enough to hold the entire cord. PLUS, they provided the capability to use a disposable dust bag for that really fine nasty dust so you can protect your lungs and it makes it so easy to remove and throw away. You can use vac without the dust bag also. The only thing I miss a little is the option for wheels but all the positives make up for that. Vacuum in good health my friend!

Just purchased a house so figured this shop vac would be a necessary tool for the garage. From previous experience, I've learned that the bigger the better with shop vacs especially with minor flooding. You can't beat the Dewalt brand so as the title states, this vacuum doesn't suck...it's great!!!

The fitting that attaches the hose to the main unit pulls out too easily. It worked its way out sitting still. I will engineer a fix. I'll probably silicone it in place or screw the parts together. Quality control is poor even through this is a premium product.

Solid construction. Loads of hose attachments. Straight forward assembly. Powerful suction. Couldn't ask for more in a shop vac. Ultimate test for a shop vac is cob webs and this unit did a solid job sucking them up.

Used it 5 times it quit and if course it’s out of warranty. Was vacuuming out the car it just stopped. That’s all it’s ever been used for light duty vacuuming. Never buy this again

This beast has made cleaning up water emergencies much more efficient. The 16 gallon capacity allows us to not have to empty it as often so we can work faster. #sweepstakes

We bought this product over a month ago and can not be happier with it! Super quiet! I can still hear my radio with it on! Powerful suction - worked perfectly for the job!

Used it a few times so far and has great suction and I'm pleased with the many attachments that comes with the vacuum. I made a good choice.

So far it's working great. Only used it twice so far, but did the job just the way I wanted it. Like the basket to hold attachments.

Excellent suction. Small size with big power! Perfect vac choice. Before use, my son even loved it as a make-shift pool..

Excellent small shop vac, works well for interior clean up after a project. Plenty of power for small jobs like that.

Vacuum for shop. Works good. Great price. Zero delivered quicker than I could get to town.

I was very happy with DeWalt WetDry Shop Vacuum. Very easy to use and not heavy.

Have this in my garage, used it to clean up many projects, it works really well!

I like the way all the tools are organized and it’s ease to carry onto Jo site . It’s compactness.

Outstanding!!!!! Powerful!!! Amazingly quiet and very easy to use!
