Wet and dry Vacuum - TilersForums.com

[Gazzer]

Has anyone bought a reasonable priced wet and dry vacuum cleaner? Has it stood the test of time?
I could do with something that wont break the bank ...lets say around £150 or is this being unreasonable ?

Hitachi do one thats also a dust collecter for your tools , it has the socket too so that it only runs when your tools running, nice bit of kit, mines about 4 yrs old and still running strong

:yikes:I've just paid £100 quids for that Vax one

And I thought I had got a good deal at that as it had been £150 in the local tool shop:incazzato: Great vac Neale and it was recommended by a builder that I work for - he's had it's predecessor for a good ten years

Tried Karcher for wet and dry vacs, Very poor in quality and pic up

Makita do a wet and dry vac thats resonable

We now have a henry for dry , Probably the best hoover you can get and pick-up is fantastic no matter how much dust/dirt/rubble you put in it

Main question is... What is it too be used for..?.. general house duties or work and stone cleaning..like picking up wet waste from cleaning stone floors etc.

The Vax is a belter then Neale

You will need one that has suitable filters for cleaning slurry sometimes.... The normal workshop type might not be suitable...always best to ask before you buy.

Dewalt do a good one, heard good reports from a supplier about them but then i guess they would say that :/

Bit more than the £150, come in about £180
