I have a Wickes wet/ dry about 3 years old. It is good for the wet side but crap as a hoover even with buying the extra filter. The new one looks pretty but I doubt the hoover side is any better. Best to carry a HENRY as well.

my wet vacc is great, use it all the time, use it to drain toilets and cisterns, drain heating systems when they are blocked and dont drain fully, clean out macerator pump(cleaned my wet vacc afterwards lol) clean up spillages, also great for getting black water out of cream carpets, just get the wet vacc on right away get most of it up then use some wonder wipes if there is a stain.

I love mine too, possibly one of the most usefull bits of kit in the van (especially when i've just had a 'moment' and made a right mess!)
Works great for getting the dregs out the bottom of F&Es too

Got a 'Charles', the wet and dry version of a Henry - It's great but a bit ***bersome compared to some of the smaller ones, the Wickes one looks pretty good for the cash 🙂

iv had one for a few years on the advice of my mate , best bit of kit in the van. the manufacturers put a feed back form in the box to find out who was buying them. i didnt send it in bcos i figured that once they know plumbers are buying them up they will bang the price up

Anyone got the name of this wickes wet and dry vac you guys are chatting about? I just looked and the only one i see is 49.99

 

[Megaflo-Experts]

It's the blue one for £44.99 - I believe it's the only one they sell.

I've got a charles which is the wet and dry henry type, superb bit of kit but doesn't hold enough water for me though

The one I got from wickes was 31.99. Bargain.

I got one of the Wickes £45 ones yesterday. I haven't tried it 'wet' yet but it did the job on a tidy out of the garage which involved sucking up all sorts of rubbish.

Seems quite light and might not stand up to much abuse but it's a lot cheaper than a Numatic!

 

[Megaflo-Experts]

I agree it is quite lightweight and hopefully it will survive rolling about in the van! It's similar in design to a Henry, but nowhere near as solid.
Pretty powerful motor though, and I guess you get what you pay for.
