Customer review from ridgid.comJul 17, 2023
Be careful - the latches/handles snap off!
I purchased the 10-gallon stainless WD1060 vacuum. I was handing the vacuum down from an attic opening with my friend below. The vacuum had bacteria (Zoogloea) laden water inside as I have just sucked out an air conditioner drain line that was completely clogged. As I was lowering the vacuum down through the attic hatch, with my friend holding the vacuum from below, the plastic latch/ handles gave out and the drum crashed down onto the stepladder, tilted over, splashed the contents (which is fairly disgusting) all over my friend and then down onto the hallway carpet. Quite the disgusting mess and my friend drenched.... Looking at the design of the handles, it is VERY easy for the handles to pop off of the very small round plastic pins when there is some weight in the drum. The handles do not lock in on the pins (they slip on) and look like they are designed more for easy assembly at the factory than ensuring something like what happened to us doesn't ever happen. I probably had two gallons of water in the vacuum, so not that heavy, but not that light either. Very disappointing design. I modified the handles by drilling a pilot hole into the round pins and adding a washer and screw to lock in the latches. After adding the screws I filled the drum with water up to the vacuum hole and I could lift the vacuum by the handle securely. The latch/handle is OK being plastic, but the other parts should be metal. I have added pictures of how I added the screws. I used 3 drill bits to make the hole to make sure I didn't split the plastic.

Doesn't fit most 2-1/2" Rigid vacs
What a bummer! What you get is not what is spec'ed out. Over the years I have bought 4 different 2-1/2" hoses. All fit fine on my 3 different Rigid vac's. It was time to buy another so I checked the spec's, confirmed it was a 2-1/2" hose bought it, waited 12 days to get it, opened the box and found 4 connectors in the box. All 4 were only 2-1/4". Sad to say a 2-1/4" hose does NOT fit in a 2-1/2" hole. The gap is so large I can fit 3 pencils in the gap. See pictures below. Time to do a return

Exactly As Original.
My Ridgid vac hose was worn through in many areas. I bought this hose as a replacement. It was the exact hose as the original. Excellent puchase.

I thought I might be able to adapt the 2-1/2 hose to fit my smaller size wet/dry vacuum to make the hose longer. I did kind of make it work and I think it will be fine for my needs. So far it works OK for the dry vacuum and I am hoping it will work for the wet vacuum as well. I haven't found a adapter yet that will actually work.

DOESN'T FIT - Plain and Simple
Stop posting call customer service. You market this as fitting ALL Rigid Shop vacs and it simply DOES NOT! Why do I have to make an other trip due to your incompetence? Time is money and you have wasted my time so you owe me money. Measurements are wrong, statement that it fits all Rigid Vacs are wrong. Flat out lies.
DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT.

I am using this to attach to my rigid vac...
I am using this to attach to my rigid vac in the garage but I don’t want to move the dust collection cart when we use it to clean our cars. I bought this item to provide that reach we were looking for. If you’re hesitating, don’t, just get it. The only thing I’ll say is the box arrived completely destroyed by some third party carrier after they held it at their warehouse for over a week and finally delivered on a holiday. I’ll ship to store from now on even though that can also be a pain.

Slide any of these inserts into the kit's master floor nozzle head and attach to your current RIDGID wet/dry vac for easy floor cleanup, no matter the surface, no matter the shop vac. The swivel neck feature makes it easy to move around the room or jobsite, getting into hard-to-reach places. The kit works with 1-7/8 in. vacs by connecting directly to wands and hoses, and to 2-1/2 in. vacs by using an adapter included with the kit. Here's how to use the premium floor cleaning kit: add one of the included inserts to the bottom of the floor nozzle by clicking the insert into the nozzle, then use the locking tabs to secure the insert into place. Attach the neck of the floor nozzle into your hose or wand to get your cleaning started. Clean up large water spills by attaching the squeegee. Clean up hair and dander from carpet by attaching the carpet insert. Clean up dust and debris off hard floors such as wood floors, laminate, and concrete by attaching the floor brush. Everything you need for your floors in one kit. The RIDGID Premium Floor Cleaning Kit is compatible with most RIDGID wet/dry vacs. We recommend pairing the kit with two RIDGID extension wands (LA2508 or VT1708 - sold separately).
