When connected to a RIDGID wet/dry vacuum, the extension wand accessory adds additional inches to the overall cleaning reach, specifically designed for floor and overhead cleaning.

          Attachments are not universal with Rigid
          I have a model WD-4070 and need a carpet attachment with rolling wheels but the one you sell is not compatible with my model. How can this be? Your accessories need to be universal.

          Hello RIDGID Customer, Thanks for writing a review. We have the Carpet and Hard Floor Nozzle Accessory (VT2530). However, you will need to have an adapter to make it work with your WD4070 and that is included on the 3-piece adapter set (VT1755). You may get this through Home Depot stores or online. If you need guidane on how to connect these, you may contact our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.

              Price is way too high for a piece of plastic. I’ll be glad when someone provides the same piece for a price that’s reasonable.

                Works as it should. Sucks things up into the vacuum. ?

                  Buy two and glue them together. Then you have a very solid longer wand.

                        The length falls a bit short and is hard on the back having to stoop over so far. Some of the tools are a little confusing as there are larger diameter hoses thay appear to go w/the machine but dont fit the rest of the attachments.

                        Hello HomeDepotCustomer, Thanks for writing a review and we're sorry to have learned about your disappointment. This VT1708 extension wand is 20.5 inches long but you can add additional wand and connect together for longer reach depending on your needs. We recommend that the maximum length of the hose with the wands is not over 27 feet to avoid suction loss. As for the tools and diameter of hoses, we're interested to know more about this and explain it better. You may call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you. Thanks, RIDGID Ridgid
