There are messes in your house that you probably wouldn’t want to suck up with your vacuum cleaner, because you know that it wouldn’t be able to handle it. Would you really want to use your $500 vacuum cleaner to clean up a really big mess like oil spilled on a bunch of saw dust? Chances are the answer is “no”.
The Shop-Vac 9620600 6GAL 3.0HP Wet/Dry Vac is going to clean up dry and wet messes in the home and out in the garage or shop. If you sucked up anything that was wet with your normal vacuum cleaner, you would probably ruin it, but you can do it without worry with a Shop-Vac.

You may be wondering what you would use a wet/dry vacuum for. If you do any types of construction, plumbing, crafts, woodworking or anything else that makes a big mess, and wet/dry vacuum is going to be for you. The Shop-Vac Ultra Plus is going to clean up what a normal vacuum can’t clean up and is going to be worth the less than $60 price tag.
When you are choosing a Shop-Vac, you have to choose what size tank you want and how much power you want. The 962-06-00 is going to offer you 3.0 HP of power, so you are going to be able to pick up a pile of sawdust easily or suck up a wet, yucky mess that you wouldn’t want to use your hands to clean up.
With a six gallon tank, you won’t have to constantly empty the canister, so you will be able to get the job done before without having to empty it. It is not too big that you will have problems pulling it around when it is full.
“Its smaller 6 gallon size makes using it on a regular basis a breeze. You will not break your back lugging it around.”
Most vacuum cleaners can’t handle sucking up liquids, but it is going to clean up those wet spots that are causing you problems. This vacuum is going to be worth the price after one clean up job. Take this review as an example of how much it was worth it.
“My predicament was a tiled shower floor that I could not re-grout – the surface beneath the tiles was draining so poorly that it stayed wet – the grout would never set. The mildew thrived and I cussed. Finally, I tried the Shop Vac with crevice tool. It pulled all the water from beneath the tiles in a few minutes. The grout set.”
The design of the vacuum is really well thought out, with big wheels and handles to help you move it without tipping it over. You will not break a sweat lugging it around. The Shop Vac has a large handle on top and pulls easily on four large swiveling casters.
If you are looking for a wet/dry vacuum, the Shop-Vac is going to be a good choice. The only thing that might turn some people off of this vacuum is the tank size. It is going to be great for small projects, but it may be a bit small for larger messes.
Will The Shop-Vac Ultra Plus Suck Or Really Suck?
If you need a good wet/dry vacuum, this one is a good choice for the money. In fact, the Shop-Vac brand is one of the only wet/dry vacuums. This vacuum is a great choice if you are looking for a 6 gallon size tank.
If you are looking for something larger or something smaller, then there are other Shop-Vacs out there for you.
