Is this good for car cleaning?

Yes. It is light enough to carry to the car, and the crevice tool and utility nozzle reach seats and floor mats. The small tank means emptying it more often on a full interior detail.

Can it pick up water?

Yes. It is a wet/dry vacuum with a foam cage filter for wet pickup. Switch to the filter bag for dry debris.

The hose is 1.25 in in diameter and 4 ft long. That is narrower than full-size shop vacuums, so large chips and leaves may clog it.

Does it come with a blower?

Yes. It has a blower function for clearing dust and leaves from hard surfaces.

How does it compare with a larger shop vacuum?

It is far lighter and easier to store, but a larger canister holds more and uses a wider hose. Choose this for quick jobs, a bigger unit for sustained shop work.
