Got the 20L version yesterday. Loud but very powerful. UK socket does 1740watts whilst the Rage 5s table saw is just 1500watts. Result! Works great together.

[@CasualDIY]

Good kit mate👍

[@caskwith]

Looks almost identical to my Lidl vac I bought a couple of years back. I am very happy with mine, powerful and durable.

[@CasualDIY]

Hopefully mine will be the same 😁

[@GangsterGameHelp]

Really looking forward to the cyclone collection build!

[@CasualDIY]

Thanks, the video should be out this Thursday 👍

[@garethsharp4039]

Looking forward to the cyclone build.

[@CasualDIY]

Me too lol🤣

[@ksp1278]

I don't need one, so the fact you kept me interested was good. Lol. Thanks for sharing your opinions on it.

[@CasualDIY]

Hehe thanks for watching 👍

[@SCRAPWOODTOCRAFTWOOD]

Good review tomasz it looks similar too my old shop vac branded one those filters are expensive and soon get clogged up with fine dust even if attached too a cyclone just make sure you use a bag aswell and it stops the fine dust getting to the filter

[@CasualDIY]

Hi mate and thanks for the tip! I actually took the bag off but as you say I think a good idea is to put it back on 👍

[@SCRAPWOODTOCRAFTWOOD]

@@CasualDIY that's how I do it on my vac and no dust touches the filter and the bags can be emptied out then

[@mariependzich8040]

How do you remove the canister to empty the dirt, sawdust, leaves etc? Doesn't seem to come off of the base? Hard to empty with the base and all the tools attached.

[@CasualDIY]

You just unhook the top. Easy and simple

[@Ice-je8cd]

Looking at getting one.... how has it held up?

[@CasualDIY]

Still works great, fully recommend it

[@Ice-je8cd]

@@CasualDIY Awesome! Getting one for $150AUD or about £75. What convinced me is they have an industrial segment to their line up, so they're not just some off-brand company who don't know anything

Witaj Tomek. Szukam odkurzacza na mokro i na sucho do odkurzania, jak spisuje sie ten co Ty go zakupiles? Dziala jeszcze, polecasz czy lepiej wybrac cos innego. szukam odkurzacza do warsztatu, pyl kurz z drewna i cement, gips jak rowniez zeby od czasu do czasu odkurzyc swierzo wyprany dywan. Pozdrawiam serdecznie (ja tez) Tomek

[@CasualDIY]

Witam, dalej działa bez problemu. Kilka razy używałem go do odciągu wody i spisał się bardzo dobrze. Co do cementu i gipsu to chyba będziesz potrzebować czegoś bardziej specjalistycznego. Oczywiście wciągnie ale takim pyłem z gipsu i cementu w mgnieniu oka zapchasz filtr. Jeśli nie przeszkadza Ci czyszczenie filtru za każdym razem to będzie ok. Do pracy w drewnie i odciągu z małych maszyn sprawdzą się bardzo dobrze. Pozdrawiam

Hello,I have exactly ds item but unfortunately today it suddenly stopped while in use like its power went off .I v checked d fuse n it's ok pls do u have an idea what may be wrong with it

[@CasualDIY]

No idea unfortunately. I would contact customer services of the manufacturer.

[@Eluciea_Mikondo]

So how do i use it with water 💦

[@christofix]

nice review and demonstration. I ned one for my shop! Yesterday i was working on my new video for next week and i had to saw a lot of wood. Without a vacuum cleaner it is a mess in my shop.

[@CasualDIY]

Thank you. Yes working in a mess is no fun, I know that from experience 🤣

[@taviadv4869]

Anyone knows if it could be converted into extractor with special nozzle? And if it works good? Maybe better than Bissel SpotClean Pro?

[@davidbrown397]

Have ever thought of building an insulated box to sit your shop vac in as a way of reducing the noise level.

[@CasualDIY]

That could lead to overheating the engine of the shop vac as I do run it for long periods. Not sure if that would be the best way to go.

[@thegoodraj]

Hi Thomas, great video again. That Power Take Off feature is very cool but changing the plug for each tool can become tiring if you're using multiple tools. Do you know whether you can use an extension cable with a multi-switch and have it work for all your tools? Can you try (cheeky request) and let us know?

[@CasualDIY]

Hmm I would not recommend that to be honest. It does have its limits

[@shankurrim5540]

As a qualified electrician of course you can do this. Just operate one tool at a time. And get a good quality extension cord. Making sure it’s not all coiled up.

[@johngreen1393]

Great videos enjoy them immensely did you get your extra pipework from the Vac supplier when I looked online They do a kit or did you buy it from somewhere else if so where from thanks John

[@CasualDIY]

Just got some more off ebay, cheap and not so great 😅

[@sumosprojects]

Bet the missus expects you to help out vacuuming inside now lol 👍👍

[@CasualDIY]

🤣 I may clean her car but that's about it 😁 I would probably make a bigger mess than it was before cleaning 🤣

[@walshesworkshop]

Great vid! Just ordered mine 😀 Will need to figure out the cyclone next 🤔

[@CasualDIY]

Thanks, good kit not failed me yet👍 got a video on the cyclone build as well 👍

[@walshesworkshop]

@@CasualDIY Superb! I'll be checking that out next. I was wondering, could I attach all my devices to the vac via a multi-gang adaptor, so any device could start it, then control the flow via blast gates?

[@CasualDIY]

Hmm there is a limit for the start socket when it comes to a tool power. Can't remember what it was🤔

[@Eluciea_Mikondo]

Hi can u please help me on how to use this as a carpet cleaner your video was very helpful

[@CasualDIY]

It sucks up water, there is a foam type cover that you put instead of the filter and that's it as far as I remember. You got a cap at the bottom of the tank to release the water.

[@kroozer5215]

Hi Tomaz, do you use the dust bag along with the new filter you fitted or is it used if you have no filter - sorry for the blonde moment - i know nothing about shop vacs but am thinking of getting this one

[@CasualDIY]

At this moment the shop vac is connected to my cyclone system so I only have the filter in the vac. Before that I had both on. But I have to say it was very difficult to put those bags in the right place. Regardless if the vac filter is on or off. If I didn't had the cyclone system I would ditch the bags as they are too expensive anyway and just use the reusable filter.

[@kroozer5215]

Thanks Tomas, great review of the vac

[@CasualDIY]

@@kroozer5215 thank you 😀

[@harrysmyth971]

if container says 20 litres what it mean; how do use to do floor cleaning, how muchwater use in container,

[@CasualDIY]

Not sure, not used it in the water option to be honest

[@Mastering3d]

The can HEPA H13 cartridge filter can that be washed ?

[@CasualDIY]

To be honest it doesn't say on the website. Not sure mate, can't see why not but don't quote me on that.

[@radekch22]

Hi Just order Guild 30 Litre Wet and Dry Vacuum Cleaner - its seems to be same just different brand... Looking forward to have a look at cyclone system U going to build...

[@CasualDIY]

Hi, they all are quite similar. The first part of the cyclone system in now online you can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWacq6Knhr5rfKM

[@radekch22]

@@CasualDIY just seen it, I think it`s my must done project as I`ve try today my new planer/thicknesser and it generate a lot of waste...U think 35mm hose will handle all the waste from planer/thicknesser ??

[@edc1326]

@@CasualDIYThis is definitely the exact same vac as Argos GUILD 30L PTO guess we now know who where Argos is getting them

[@CasualDIY]

@@edc1326 there's so many knock offs theses days and it's all made in China 🤣

[@thepeginator2556]

How have you got on with this vac long term? About to order the Guild version.

[@CasualDIY]

No issues mate. Its very good. And with the cyclone system it works fantastic. Since I made it still empty nothing goes through 😁👍

[@thepeginator2556]

Ace. I’ll order the guild one then, found it for £55 refurbed, which seems like a steal. Still with a years warranty. Enjoying the channel. 👍🏻

[@TheFazer1992]

Are you still using this? If so how does it do with the thicknesser. Just got my Makita and 6ft x 4ft x 6 inches of walnut and ash chips later I'm thinking I finally need to get one as cheap as possible 🤣

[@CasualDIY]

Still got it, works fine. But for a thicknesser I would recommend a high volume low pressure machine. This is the otherwise around, so low volume and high pressure. Its best for sanders etc.

[@dscraft6358]

Hi, nice channel and thanks for your review :) Keep it up

[@CasualDIY]

Thank you kindly 😁

[@Thesidingsworkshop]

Looks a decent vac looks very similar to the ryobi one I have

[@CasualDIY]

I think they are all very similar, I'm just hoping this one will serve me well and long 😁

[@Thesidingsworkshop]

@@CasualDIY well if it's like the ryobi I've had mine nearly three years and it's great. I've got mine connected to a 32mm solvent weld dust system running around the garage which works great.

[@wazztoronto]

my vacmaster died i am upset as one of the best vaca ive used anyone changed motor on this??

[@CasualDIY]

Fortunately mine still works fine. You should be able to change the motor if the parts are available

[@paddyschannel217]

Great video mate and really informative 👍🏻.. thanks

[@CasualDIY]

Thank you for watching 👍

[@Paul-TrophySE]

An English socket?????? As opposed to a Scottish, Welsh or Irish socket?

[@CasualDIY]

You know that the world does not end on the UK right? For example in Poland there are different plugs and sockets, same i the USA.

[@Paul-TrophySE]

@@CasualDIY Thats my whole point. The world does not end at Gretna Green! No such thing as an English socket. Its a UK socket.

[@CasualDIY]

@@Paul-TrophySE oh ok didn't get that then👍

[@Paul-TrophySE]

@@CasualDIY Haha no worries. Thanks for the review. Thinking of buying this vac, would you still recommend?

[@CasualDIY]

@@Paul-TrophySE definitely, I actually used it to drain water from toilet tank as well and it worked perfectly. Lots of power, doesn't over heat even after couple of hours of constant use.

[@Paul-TrophySE]

cheers. sounds like the one for me!

[@CasualDIY]

Thanks for watching
