Is it really quiet enough to use indoors?

Yes. DeWalt rates it around 65 dB, roughly half the loudness of a conventional shop vac, so it is comfortable in a garage or basement without ear protection.

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

It handles both, but empty and dry the tank and switch from the cartridge to wet pickup before liquids. The washable cartridge and disposable bag are for dry debris.

What comes in the box?

The vacuum, a 7 ft 1-7/8 inch hose, two extension wands, a floor brush, a crevice nozzle, a tool adaptor and a disposable filter bag.

How does it compare with a 12-gallon contractor vac?

It is quieter and easier to store, but the bigger vac holds twice the debris and uses a wider hose, so it suits heavy demolition better.

Does it work as a blower?

Yes. The built-in blower port turns it into a leaf-and-sawdust blower when you move the hose to the exhaust outlet.

What filter does it take?

It uses DeWalt's washable cartridge filter and standard disposable bags for the 6-gallon STEALTHSONIC line.
