Is 5 gallons enough for a garage?

For routine dust, sawdust and spills, yes. It fills fast on big cleanups like a full floor of debris, where a 12-gallon or larger tank means fewer empties.

What is the difference between the two filters?

The cartridge filter is for dry pickup and traps dust. The foam filter goes on for wet pickup, when the cartridge should come out.

What does 3 peak HP mean?

Peak horsepower is measured at the motor's maximum, not its sustained running power. Suction is better judged by airflow, listed here at 65 CFM.

What comes in the box?

The vacuum, eight accessories, a cartridge dry filter and a foam wet filter.

Can it pick up water and dust in the same session?

Not without switching filters. Empty and dry the tank, swap the cartridge for the foam filter for wet work, and reverse it for dry debris.

How far can it reach?

About 16 feet combined from the hose and power cord, which covers most of a one-car garage from a single outlet.

Our take on the 5 Gallon Wet and Dry Shop Vacuum

A compact canister shop vacuum with a 5-gallon tank, a 3 peak HP motor and 65 CFM of airflow. It ships with a cartridge dry filter and a foam wet filter, so one unit handles sawdust and spills. Eight accessories, on-board storage and wide casters keep it ready in a garage or small shop. It is smaller than 12- to 16-gallon shop vacuums, so it fills faster on big jobs but is easier to carry and store.
