Best wet and dry Vac

[moonlight]

What wet and dry Vac does everyone use. Went to look at a job last year and told them they had a leak under concrete. Their handyman has now lifted the floor and, oh what a surprise there is a leak. I have to go in now and repair the pipe. I can drain heating as much as you can above but what vac does everyone use. Thanks

I use a cheap and cheerful Titan good bit of kit.

The 30ltr

I use an Einhell with stainless steel body. £46 at my nearest merchants. They last a few years even with some quite heavy use. I am only on my second one in 12 years.

I have a Titan wet and dry vac from Screwfix. It is a piece of junk, but only cost 30 odd pounds. The suction hose is terrible quality. It does the job though.
I see Lidl doing a decent looking Parkside brand 1300 watt 20 litre wet and dry vac this week locally to me. Only £34.99 and 3 year warranty

You must have the small one. 😛 Screwfix do 4 different ones and I had them all out looking at them all. I went for a bigger one much better quality then the smaller ones. In my opinion anyway.😛😛

It could be the smaller one. I bought it in a hurry for to remove water for a customer that had a water saturated carpet due to a burst, very corroded radiator. I probably just went cheapest, knowing I likely rarely will use it.
The hose was, and still is badly kinked and a review mentioned this is normal out of the box.
I didn't do my usual research or take a look at them, like you sensibly did, and now I am left with an embarrassing piece of junk. 😛

Parkside, very good hoover. It can pull and blow it’s a great tool though. Especially when installing a cylinder and you struggle to drain just put the hoover on and push the water out

I can't be doing with changing filters etc so goy an old Henry for dry work (£20 off eBay) and an Einhell for wet. The Einhell is small, lightweight and well made

I have the Wickes W&D, it's pants quality but why bother when you're sucking up CH & toilet water. The only thing to remember is not to over fill it so the filter gets wet or it'll stink when using it for dry matter.

No but after all the research. I thought this one. The reviews were good.
