Our take on the CRAFTSMAN CMXEVBE17250 2.5 Gallon 2.5 Peak HP Wet Dry Vac

The Craftsman CMXEVBE17250 is a compact 2.5-gallon corded wet/dry vacuum with a 2.5 peak HP motor and a 6.7 lb body. It works as both a vacuum and a blower, and its 1-1/4 in. accessories are sized for tight spots like car footwells and garage corners. It suits small cleanups rather than whole-shop jobs: the small tank and bag filter mean frequent emptying, and it is not the tool for deep water or heavy debris. Against larger shop vacuums it trades capacity and airflow for portability and easy storage.

Questions and answers

Is this vacuum good for cleaning a car?
Yes. The 1-1/4 in. hose and crevice tool fit between and under seats, and the 6.7 lb body is easy to carry around the vehicle. The small tank means you may empty it once or twice on a full interior detail.
Does it work as a blower?
Yes. The hose can be moved to the exhaust port so it blows air, which is handy for clearing dust and dry leaves from a garage floor or porch.
What comes in the box?
The vacuum, a 5 ft friction-fit hose, a crevice tool, a utility nozzle and a filter bag. No cartridge filter is included.
What filter does it take?
It uses the Craftsman CMXZVBE38737 filter bag. It is not compatible with the CMXZVBE38662 car cleaning kit.
Can it handle standing water?
It can pick up small spills, but the 2.5-gallon tank limits how much water it holds. For flooded areas, a larger wet/dry vac is the better choice.
Is it cordless?
No. It runs on 120V corded power, so you need an outlet within reach of the cord.
