Overview
A corded electric utility vacuum from Shop-Vac running on standard 120 volt household power, weighing 18.1 pounds. Positioned for garage, workshop or basic cleanup duty rather than portable handheld use.
At over 18 pounds this sits on the heavier end for a single unit, which tracks with a motor and tank combination built for pickup power rather than portability. Corded 120V operation means it plugs into any standard outlet with no battery to manage.
- Corded electric power source
- 120 volt operation
- 18.1 pound unit weight
- Shop-Vac branded
Who it's for
Suits homeowners and workshop users who want a plug in vacuum for garage or shop cleanup. Less suited to anyone who needs a cordless or highly portable unit for quick spot jobs.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Corded 120V power with no battery to charge
- At 18.1 pounds, not built for portability
- No details given on tank size or attachments
Performance notes
Corded electric operation on 120 volts avoids battery runtime limits, so the vacuum can run continuously as long as it stays plugged in. The 18.1 pound weight suggests a unit meant to stay in one spot during use rather than being carried around a site.
