Wall Mounted Shop Vac?

[Chadwilliam1]

Does anybody on here have a wall mounted shop vac? I like the idea of getting my floorspace back.

Here are two that I found I like the Ridgid all of my other shop vacs are Ridgid and I have yet to have a problem with them. Any opinions?

Not what you mentioned, I have the Hoover GUV ( won't take on water ) I really like it- the hose is really long, narrow and runs well. Having it up and out of the way, right next to power- really is great.

I wanted the rigid but they dont ship overseas. Settled on a Shopvac. Does wet and dry, dismounts, good value but the hose is a bit flimsy and doesnt wrap around 3 times but otherwise is fine for the money they sell for.. its next to my sand blaster and gets used as a dust extraction unit.

I've got a Vacmaster 510. It's decent. Fairly quiet compared to my old Shop Vac. P.O.S. that kept breaking. I like the remote control a lot.

I've also got a Shop Vac brand wet/dry mounted to the wall, it can be dismounted from the bracket but I rarely need to. Hose is long enough to get all the way around the car. It's about 10 gal, but it's tall and narrow. Hose is small diameter, but works fine for cleanups and car use. Also worked fine to **** a clog out of my AC drain line. Had it for 5 or 6 years now, no complaints, I've only replaced filters.

My only complaint with wall mounts is they fill up too quickly which causes the filter to plug and you to lose suction. Other than that, I think they're great.

They are also easier to carry around than a regular shop vac, and the extra long hose is very handy.

Vacumaid is a good one. 25'/50' hose. Very nice looking too. There is a thread somewhere on here with someones install.

That rigid is nice. I have the same unit hanging in one garage and the lowes kobalt version in the other garage. Only issue I've had is the thermisistor in the rigid burned out but with a quick internet replacement it has been working fine ever since.
