Is this vacuum good for wet spills?

Yes. It comes with a foam wet filter for liquid pickup, and the 8 gallon tank holds a fair amount before you need to empty it.

Can it be used as a blower?

Yes. It converts to a blower with a simple changeover, useful for clearing debris from a garage or yard.

Does it run on battery?

No. It runs on AC mains power, so you need an outlet and a cord within reach.

What filters are included?

A cartridge filter for dry vacuuming and a foam filter for wet pickup are both included.

How does it compare with plastic-tank shop vacs?

The stainless steel drum is sturdier and resists dents, but it adds weight compared with plastic-bodied rivals of similar capacity.

Will the hose stay attached while I work?

The accessories are locking, which is designed to keep the hose and attachments connected during tough jobs.

Our take on the HART 8 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum

The HART 8 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum is a corded shop vac with a stainless steel drum, a 6 peak HP motor and casters for rolling it around the shop or garage. It ships with a cartridge filter for dry pickup and a foam filter for wet pickup, and it converts to a blower for clearing debris. Locking accessories keep the hose and attachments connected during tough jobs, and on-board storage holds the hose, cord and nozzles. It suits garage, workshop and job-site cleanup where a mid-size tank and strong suction matter more than portability; against plastic-tank rivals it trades some weight for a sturdier drum.
