VWMB508 1101

Great design and does several jobs for me. The fact that it can be used as a car wash style vacuum is terrific. It works well in both applications mounted and unmounted. The suction is really good and the remote handle is awesome. The best part of this unit is its incredibly long reach with tons of hose and a 18ft cord. I'm not sure you can match this quality and design for the price and it really feels like a great value to me. I also must add the pictures do not do justice and it looks impressive in person.

Very nice wall mounted garage vacuum. Comes with two hoses, traditional plastic one commonly used in all shop vac's, an expansion hose that stretches out then retracts making it compact to wrap around vacuum. The remote option is awesome, leave top switch on and it operates off the handle on/off button. Great value, light weight and excellent mounting bracket easy to install. This vac would be a great gift for someone with limited space in the garage.

Great sized vacuum to hang in the garage to clean vehicles and garage. Good suction and the wand has a on and off switch to power up vacuum. Purchased two at the price.

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!!

Pretty decent shop vac! Sucks up all sorts of stuff my kids leave in the van... Socks... Gloves ... Tissues... Napkins... Half eaten gill cheese sandwich! It came with 2 hoses. One is very flexible and high quality, the other is cheap and very stiff. I would have liked another 5ft of the nicer hose. I can't reach the back of my van with the canister wall mounted at the front. The remote is super helpful! Best feature ever! The "blow" feature was really nice for saw dust and grass clippings.

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.

I'm reviewing: Vacmaster VWMB508 1101 5 Gallon Wall-Mount Wet/Dry Vacuum with Remote Control Things 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.

What a great little vacuum. I set this up on my garage wall. With it's very long suction hose and wifi control this couldn't be any better. I wouldn't wait, just buy this!!

Overall, this is a versatile vacuum for the garage. I knock it down 1 star for suction power. It could honestly be stronger for garage applications from vacuuming the car to vacuuming around the garage. I tried it for water pickup, it's not too bad but not going to give the performance of a stronger shop vac. It is compact and looks great in the garage though. The accessories and wall mount are pretty nice too.

I was pretty impressed at how well this unit sucks. It comes with some really long lines which is great also. The holding tank isn't huge on this unit though, it fills up pretty fast if you are cleaning up a mess. For me that was a bit of a pain, but I guess you are trading off a more portable unit for a smaller tank size.

Nice vacuum for the garage but i wish it had attachments for in between seats for cars. The handle switch on/off can be use even if not attached to the hose which is nice. It is a very quiet vaccum compare to the shop-vac i had before. Suction is good. would have given it 5 stars if it had more hose attachments. All in all, it is a nice vacuum and does the job quite well.

It is being used in our workshop and has performed well so far. It is quiet which we really like but it has not yet been put to the sawdust collection test so cannot offer a review on that front.
