Offer him $25. It's been on there for over a month!

I've had a 16 gallon Craftsman forever. Never a problem. Occasionally, clean it out and replace the filter every 5-6 years. Lots of suckage power!

That Rigid is a decontented model made simply to hit a cheap price point. If all you care about is price, then go for it.

It you want something better quality, then get the $99 Rigid or a Craftsman. The new Craftsman vacs are made by Vacmaster.

You can get a Craftsman for less than the Rigid if you shop their sales.

Either choice would be more money than the Rigid you listed, but either choice is a much higher quality and better equipped vac.

My shopvac is likely on its last leg. Rather than wait for it go down while needed I am hoping to replace it prior to its demise.

Suggestions?

Anyone have this one?

I have the 12 or 14 gallon Ridgid that goes for about $80 and have been very happy with it.

Did a little research prior to buying mine, and generally found that the Ridgid had a good reputation as good performer and value.

You must be out In the shop now to produce that picture that fast. Lol. That's a little too far for me to drive for a vac. I haven't seen it yet though, I do a CL browsing of surrounding areas every few days. Thanks though
