- Is the Stealthsonic really quieter than a normal shop vac?
- Yes. DeWalt rates it at about half the sound level of its standard wet/dry vacuums, and owners confirm you can talk over it. It is still a shop vac, not a household canister.
- Can it pick up water?
- Yes. It is a wet/dry vacuum with a 9-gallon tank and a drain port for emptying water without lifting the canister.
- Does it come with a filter bag?
- It ships with a cartridge filter for wet and dry use. For fine drywall dust, add a disposable bag to keep the filter cleaner.
- How does it compare with a standard DeWalt shop vac?
- The main difference is the quieter motor and the drain. Standard models move more air for the same size but are much louder.
- Is 9 gallons too big for a home garage?
- It is a good size for a garage or workshop, but it is heavy and bulky. If you only do small cleanups, a smaller canister is easier to store.
- What hose size does it use?
- It uses a 2-1/2 inch hose, the common shop vac size, so standard wands and nozzles fit.
