18V Cordless Wet/Dry Vacuum, 1.6 Gallon HEPA Filter Vacuum, Powerful 74 CFM Airflow, 8 ft. of Stretchable Hose, Eco and Boost Modes, Lightweight Design, Tool Body Only, RP18DAQ4

Works fine and seems to be well built. Wanted a small shop vac that went with the battery system that I had and this works. By no means is it as powerful as a larger corded shop vac but it works and it gets by on almost no electricity relative to a standard shop vac. With an 8Ah battery it runs for quite a while. As far as purchasing filters, internally this is identical to the "Flex 24V 1.6 gallon wet/dry vacuum" and the identically made filters branded for the Flex vacuum are much easier to find and at cheaper prices (at least in the US) and both (HEPA and dust bag) are currently available on Amazon (currently ASINs B0CY3GHHN5 and B0CY3HC1D8). My biggest complaint is that the tool rack for this is just a bolt on afterthought (literally). Everything else on this thing is extremely sturdy and will likely outlast me (or more realistically the lifetime of this battery system). It has a large solid handle and the accessories, while small, are very well built. But the bolt on tool rack probably won't survive if the thing is bouncing around in a truck. But I've also never seen a good solution for tools on a shop vac so I'm not going to ding them too hard for this.

This little vacuum really sucks for its size. It’s not bad to carry around and use to clean up household “to-do” projects. I have even used it in the garage to clean up my work area. It’s also not bad to plug in the hose to the “exhaust” to blow leaves off the side walk.

Nicely built. Suction's OK There's a reducer coupling that comes with the vac. It's not intuitively obvious what it's for (at least to me it wasn't). The instructions don't mention it, but if you look closely at one of the pictures you can see that it fits onto the end of the flexible hose and provides a tight fitting for the extension tubes. Without that coupling the tube won't stay connected to the hose. I bought FT522 bags on Amazon and they fit

Works well but cost of operation is high if you don't find reusable or affordable bags for the vacuum cleaner. The ones I have found so far are pricey.

I bought this vacuum for my work van. I have other Metabo HPT tools, so I wanted a vacuum which would share the batteries. The vacuum has plenty of power and it is well designed. The only thing that's sort of weird is the hose is 2 3/8" diameter rather than 2 1/4" like Shop-Vac. Therefore, finding additional attachments is challenging. I ordered reducer from Amazon, so when this arrives, I am hoping it will work to reduce the 2 3/8 hose end to 2 1/4". It would be nice if Metabo offered additional attachments for this vacuum, but doesn't seem like they do.

Finally used this for the first time. Mad cleaning the floor of my van much less of a hassle. Love that this is part of the Metabo tool system. I like their designs and reliability.

Item was shipped fast and arrived on time, the only problem is this is missing a shoulder Strap and a wide nozzle. How can I get these parts ? I ended up returning this and Reordering the same vacuum at a lower price. I love the Quality of this Compared to my previous Makita Cordless. The suction is Stronger and the hose is better and the Metal extensions are a plus for standing work. The Filter is Superior also. Very pleased, After a bumpy start.

Works great and is powerful for the size! Would like the attachments shaped a bit different for easier use

Great little vacuum, better performance than I expected, I've used it in dry (mostly sawdust) and wet situations and it's worked well for both. It has an auto shutoff when the water level hits a certain point, which does work, but I'm not sure I'd trust it so pay attention to how much water has been picked up. Love having a small easy to carry vacuum that uses the same batteries as all my tools. I was leery having read all the reviews, but a) easily found replacement bags (a bit pricey but available). b) has plenty of power for small tasks (if your doing something that needs more power, use a full size shop vac.) c) short battery life? not in my opinion, seems to run quite a while even on smaller batteries. d) clogging? I've had no clogs, but it may depend on what your picking up. e) non standard size, weirdly the attachments from the small A/C vac I'd used for decades fit so no issue for me, I do have a couple attachments that are a different size, but had long ago solved that issue with some tape for the old vac.

I just love it, I use daily in my job site!

I have lots of cordless tool brands, and a vac for almost everyone. This one works very well, maybe the Milwaukee box/case looking M18 works a tiny bit better. The M18 is awesome and anyone that use it is impressed it is battery operated. This is pretty close. I have 2 by Flex, which look very similar to this one, but just OK power or suction. I have a couple of Makita's, A Metabo (German, not HPT), Ryobi and they all fall into the OK rating. This Metabo is definitely a cut above, these others and you won't be disappointed. Also well built, nice steel tube extensions.

I bought this cordless Metabo HPT 18v vacuum cleaner 5 months ago and it has extremely high powerful suction like you wouldn’t believe!! I’ve used it to vacuum my dad’s car and truck and it looks absolutely very well vacuumed which it did a fantastic job!!! It is just as powerful as a big shop vac!! I strongly recommend putting in a large 18v 8.0ah battery inside it otherwise it won’t last long on runtime!! I absolutely love it!! It’s the bestest cordless vacuum cleaner ever!!! I strongly recommend putting recommend it to anyone!!!
