#1 | | My new Vac sucks! Name: Anna-Catherine City: Matthews State: NC County: Mecklenburg Join Date: Feb 2006  11-02-2009, 10:04 PM
Hee, hee...no really...it sucks things up real nice! I got it Friday evening after my little 6 gallon Shop-Vac died. It's a Rigid 16 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac/ WD1851. I love this thing.
No, I haven't replaced my table saw yet. (Probably won't for a long time!)  | | Views: 201 | |

Nice vac. I got the metal can Rigid and it is great. Compared to the old craftsman shop vac, it is lots quieter. I still haven't invested in a good filter yet but am on the fence for a shop vac cyclone.

Nice! Ridgid makes excellent shopvacs. Just be careful with circular saws around them, they don't do well with leaks

Good choice! I recently bought the 12 gal and it's very nice other than the standard hose that comes with it. The hose crushes really easily. I cobbled together some adaptors to use my old shopvac Pro hose, much better. Ridgid do have a better hose, but $36....
