Not bad, not great either
By Rich T
Bought year end as part of the holiday promo pack with a multimaster (would probably have bought larger if buying not in a package). Works well and haven't had any problems. Added a strap to have somewhere to tie up the cord (nice thick one), but there's really nowhere for it or the hose. Very annoying.Gagged when I saw the cost of the Hepa filter, so bought the Gore Clean Stream Pro that says "Fits RIDGID & CRAFTSMAN red wet/dry vacs", UPC 33132 09093 at HD, along with a 7/16 x 2" hex cap screw at Lowes. Fits perfectly for $30.

Small, Quiet, Powerful
By Two Hats
We recently purchased two of these vacuums as presents for our two sons based on over 5 years of experience with our own vacuum. Originally attracted by the low decibel rating (63 dB) and the Fein name, it has lived up to our expectations in every way. Extremely quiet (no shouting or even ear muffs necessary for short use), light weight when empty and relatively easy to carry when full and excellent suction are great features. The ability to plug in a dust-producing piece of equipment (sander, chop-saw, etc.) and have the vacuum go on and off with the equipment is a tremendous time-saver and dust eliminator. With the use of a HEPA filter, this vacuum leaves no dust behind.We thought the Fein HEPA filter a bit pricey so my husband replaced the mounting screw with a longer one that would accommodate the much cheaper Sears HEPA filter.I notice that the latches are now made of plastic instead of the metal clasps on our vacuum. I hope they hold up as well.Very highly recommended. Although Fein makes two larger models that have the auto-start system, they both are louder and heavier - features that are less desirable for a home remodeller. We have basically stopped using our other shop-vacs.

By RB
I've been using the Fein vac for about two weeks now and I am quite pleased.Design- The unit is nice and compact. The cord wraps around the unit in a groove. A keeper would be nice but I run it through the handle and it stays put OK. The switches have a clear cover to prevent dust intrusion. The hose detaches easily allowing you to carry the unit seperately making it very easy to move up and down stairs, ladders, etc. It comes with a crevice tool, brush head and tool adapter. The silver hose and orange and black color scheme is quite attractive, even my wife likes it. It has five casters which are far less prone to tipping. Cord is very heavy and does not twist easily. (tip: when winding up the cord, hold the cord and spin the unit as a take up reel and the the cord will not twist as you wind).Performance- The suction is very good. It is about as quiet as my Electrolux upright, though considerably noisier with the crevice tool. The paper bag and filter setup maintains suction better than the filter bag that comes with the unit. The filter bag works well but suction drops as fine dust acumulates. However, cleaning and restoring the filter is simple with a light beating with a stick (works best outside, standing upwind :-).Negatives- No onboard tool space or cord keeper although if this were provided it would create grooves and crevices for dirt to build up. So many shop vacs look trashy after the first few uses. This one stays very clean looking.
