        Q:I have seen answers here that the CFM is 203. However when I went to the Ridgid website and reviewed the specifications the CFM is listed as 181, which matches the Home Depot data. Can someone actually confirm the CFM or explain why answers state 203?

            A:  I don't think so - rollers have to have some method of powering the belts to move the rollers (electrically). This is a great unit with great suction but I don't know of an attachment with rollers
