Cons
- •Requires separate purchase of a compatible DeWalt 20V Max battery, which adds to the overall cost
- •Does not provide enough suction power to replace a standard plun wet/dry vacuum for heavy-duty tasks
- •Durability concerns: lid clamps can loosen over time causing leakage or separation, and switch reliability can degrade with use
- •Filter leaks dust and replacement filters are not sold separately, so repairs could mean replacing the entire unit
- •Wheels sometimes feel weak and may require modifications like adding washers/glue for improved stability
- •Considered undersized by some users, which may limit capacity for larger cleaning jobs
- •Not designed for heavuty shop use; better suited for light, occasional cleanups rather than constant or demanding tasks
- •Some users reported neaero suction and disappointing performance, indicating variability in quality
Bottom Line
The DeForce Cordless Shop Wet Dry Vac is a lightweight, convenient option for quick and light cleaning where portability and cordless convenience matter most. However, it falls short if you need a heavy-duty, powerful wet/dry vacuum and demands a DeWalt 20V Max battery purchase to function. Its fragility in parts like lid clamps and switch reliability means it may not hold up over the long haul under tough use. If you want more robust power and durability, considering a plug-in option or higher-end cordless shop vac might be wiser. Still, for small household or workshop tidying, this vacuum gets the job done without much fuss.
