The first question to ask yourself when you're buying a wet-dry vac is, How much power/capacity do I really need? The night we moved in to our new house, a freak hailstorm flooded our basement. I borrowed my father-in-law's industrial-sized vacuum to clean up the mess, and it was just too big to maneuver in my basement and I almost broke my back lugging the eight-gallon tank up the stairs to empty it out.

For most home applications, I think three-five gallons is about right, so this six-gallon model would be appropriate if you anticipate the need for more capacity but don't feel like you need the extra power of a four-HP or better model. Even with the slightly higher capacity, it's still small enough to be maneuverable in cramped quarters.

The Quiet-Deluxe series, as the name suggests, are very quiet indeed, which makes this a good choice for home use. It has a blower feature for use in the yard, and comes with a selection of useful accessories. My one complaint about this model is that the hose was a little narrow, especially where it enters the vacuum. While I never had a problem with clogging, it seemed like this could be an issue depending on what you're trying to clean up.

Other than that, this is a great little vacuum with enough power and capacity for most home or small-business applications.--Josh Dettweiler

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Shop-Vac 5850600 6-Gallon 3.0 Peak HP Quiet Plus Series Wet/Dry Vacuum

Customer Review: Great little cleaner
Summary: 5 Stars

Just a great little vacuum. Very powerful and does a nice job of cleaning. Got it because of its small storage size to fit into my apartment. Use it for getting into areas that an upright just can't reach as well as the tiled floors in the kitchen and bathroom where it does a fine job. Have only had it a few days and don't understand the other bad reviews at all. Only paid $30 for it at Lowes (where they have the 12 gallon for the same amount of money) and its a fantastic value at that price. Only downside is that there is no crevice tool and the 6' cord is rather short.
