Overview
Starting with a corded motor, this portable shop vacuum from WORKSHOP pulls debris through a friction fit hose into a small tank. A filter bag with a retaining band catches the dust, and two nozzles cover car interiors and general work. One handle makes it easy to carry.
A light, handheld body works well in a car or a corner of a workshop where a full size shop vacuum is too large. The two nozzles and the bag arrive in the box. The small capacity and the single power level mean it is for small messes, and the listing recommends car and hard floor surfaces only.
Who it's for
A car interior, a workbench or a hard floor garage suits a compact corded vacuum. Anyone clearing large spills, working outdoors or cleaning carpet should choose a bigger unit with outdoor and carpet use listed.
Pros and cons
- Small and portable with one handle
- Car and utility nozzles included
- Filter bag with retaining band included
- Long warranty period
- Small tank capacity
- Single power level
- Indoor use only
- Carpet not listed as a surface
Performance notes
Suction comes from the corded motor and is limited by the small hose and the filter bag, which clogs as it fills. Emptying the tank and replacing the bag restore airflow. The tank size sets how long a job runs between stops.
