Acorn Removal from Lawn
It does great for sucking up acorns.
My lawn is a little longer than usual when I tried this as well. Maybe 3”.

Checks all the boxes.
16 gal, mainly because of the shape, they roll better and have a good capacity. But in addition to those requirements, I looked for a 20' cord, and locking hose connections - check. A couple of bonus items, The ON/OFF switch is well positioned - right where your thumb hits it when grabbing the handle. Finally, there is a nice clamp to help hold the hose in place when not in use. The vac has good suction and is not too loud. Includes a nice set of hoses and attachements.

Dont buy this style!
Needed a vaccum because mine broke, bout this one. Its terrible, has the motor as the blower. I should have bought the one without the blower. This design is crap. My Dewalt was 100x better. Cant wait til this breaks so i can but a vaccum that works. Dont but this style.

Amazing how this wet/dry vac works. I purchased to clean...
Amazing how this wet/dry vac works. I purchased to clean a Wendy’s post tile renovation and it worked great. I couldn’t have done it without this wet/dry vac. Thanks so much for this awesome product!

Why are the wheels so small?
I like that the hose is strong enough to pull the vacuum however the wheels are so small that they can't even roll over their own cord. Also the lid has two clasps but they only work in one position so you have to put it on the same way every time. It would be nice if they designed it so it doesn't matter which way you put the top on.

Malfunction and fire inside electric motor
Product almost burned down my atelier and house. The product stopped working after a small fire. I turned it off, waited for it to cool down and disassemble the product. I thought it was wood dust that might have come into contact with some poorly insulated connection, but that is not what happened. I am product designer and mechanic engineer. That vaccum should be removed from the shelves. As shown in the photos, the axis of rotation comes into contact with the plastic support of the coil, probably assembly error, or poor design, and create friction ,in the worst case, as in my case, it burns the paper that insulates the coil from the metal casing.

Dangerous
Product is dangerous. plastic part that covers the coil comes into contact with the rotor. the excess heat melts the plastic part and can start a small fire in the paper that protects the coil. The smell of melting plastic is a malfunction alert.
