Flex 24-V Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum - 1.6 US Gallons - Cordless - Bare Tool (battery not included) is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 118.

Rated 3 out of 5 by AnActualContractor from I'm sure the next next will be better. Good little vac! It has plenty of power and handy to carry around. I do however wish the handle was better thought out and constructed heaver duty. Also the dust bag is difficult to attach and put into the unit....which is also not so easily put back together after you dump the contents. The clips on either side feel cheap and not well thought out. I am moving from Ryobi over to flex and this is just my honest assessment. Its not gonna keep me from buying further into the platform, just things ive noted whilst using the unit...oh one more thing, the way the accessories fit onto the unit makes them fall off easily while carrying it around.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Matt from Great vac IF you DON'T need bags. Works well, Impossible to find bags. FLEX customer service doesn't even have an item # for them!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jakimo89 from A great all-in-one portable vacuum! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a little while ago and got it mostly for cleaning out my car. I didn’t even realize how awesome it would work as well as have features that I didn’t even know I would need. I love that it has the ability to be a vacuum as well as a blower. I love that it has a feature just to clean out the filter—more products need to add this because it is very useful. The battery allows it to run for quite a long time at full power which I really appreciate. It has worked extremely well with me cleaning out my car and as I continue to use it, I find more useful things to use it for as well. Highly recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Christian Finch from Amazing little shop vac If you own Flex tools and have batteries already its a perfect little shop vacuum. I hardly use my large shop vacuum anymore around the house.

Rated 3 out of 5 by amc68 from Tool attachments dont stay in place I recently bought this after crossing over from another platform. While this vacuum rivals that of of a full sized shop vac, I am dismayed with the attachments and the efficiency of the vac, hence the 3 stars. The tip attachments don't seem to fit properly on the tip and constantly fall off while using the vacuum. It is frustrating to say the least when you have to constantly stop and reattach the tips during vacuuming. To say this machine is efficient, it is not. I went through 1.5 batteries which were 2.5 ah each within 15 minutes. I will have to think twice before I purchase another tool from this company.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Igor from Great vacuum for cleaning. Purchased the Flex fans, lights and these vacuums for my painting business. Really like the that I can use a dust bag and it doesn't lose suction. We have full size vacuums and sander but needed small portable cordless vacuums for small projects. I saw this to be advertised connecting to power tools and decided to purchase. Gave it only 3 stars because I get shocked when using a sander, which is a big deal to me, and the motor can burn down. Looks like the hose or the adapter is not antistatic. Couple thing I would improve is the handle, when the bag is full and having a 8ah battery is out of balance. And the second is adding the cleaning extension pipes like the Metabo AS 18.
