Hi, can you tell me what the name of the shop vac is? Where can you get one of these... I have a vac from Home Depot. It has some good suction but, nothing to write home about. I would love to get a vac with too much suction. I have a dison for the rugs in my home and I must say that I don't like the hose part but, as far as the beater bar on rugs, it is the best I have ever had. the brush is firm and picks up just about everything. Don't forget to let me know the brand name of that shop vac. Thanks in advance. Andy, in dirty Salem.

I remember when I got the machine and how it smelled really weird the first few times I used it. Smelled like it was burning wood or some odd smell, but never have had any problems with the bugger. It's kind of neat to hear things fly up the hose, bounce off the shield in there and land in the bucket. What a great machine and it does a great job removing water. Gee, I need to go check and see who makes this technological marvel.
