This review is from: DEWALT DW795 Heavy Duty 20-Gallon Wet/Dry Tank Vacuum (Tools & Home Improvement)

I'm a big fan of DeWalt products and expected a high quality product. For the most part I was not disappointed. The vacuum's usefulness is limited without the $100 accessory package. Dewalt should adjust the price and include the "accessories" as part of the base product. The accessories are top-notch and turn this into a highly useable tool. Although the hose is two inches in diameter, all the accessories are 1.5 inches. This results in frequent clogs when cleaning up larger pieces of debris. I've found myself having to initially pick out the larger pieces by hand before cleaning up with the vac. I also wasn't impressed with the power. Without having done any scientific measurements, it appear my old $99 craftsman vac can out clean the dewalt. When it comes to noise levels, their claims are accurate. This is a very quite machine. I no longer have to worry about waking the kids when cleaning up after they've gone to sleep. It's also a big machine and is clumsy to move up and down stairs, however the caster system is superior and makes moving it around on a flat surface a breeze. It also is a very stable machine, and is all but impossible to tip over. My old craftsman had difficulty staying upright by comparison.

Overall I'm satisfied with my purchase.

I bought this thinking yes it is expensive but appears built to last. I also thought for the money it should suck the paint right off the wall when I start it up. To my surprise I found out it can not suck up a lousy screw on the floor. It is very quiet and filter is great. It is a VERY large unit. All I know is my craftsman would out suck this machine. I am planning on sending this unit back unless Dewalt tells me there is something wrong with it?? In the long run I think you are better off going to Lowes or Depot and getting a $ unit.
