Note: My local Home Depot has one in stock for the same price as the website.

Reviews basically state that it does a good job (best coordless vac available next to the $250 Dewalt) but that it is not going to replace your shop vac. Looks decent for us apartment dwellers. Might as well give it a whirl for $20. This was $50 as of last year.

Note: While the deal is still a good one, the 18V battery is another $40, and add another $20 for the charger. Total cost: $80.

The unit has decent power, and is definitely the most powerful cordless dustbuster by far. As a wet vac, it doesn't hold much liquid, but does a decent job sucking out the water. The floormats in my 2 seater required me to drain the wet vac fluid collecter 3-4 times.
