Wet Vac

[leeds2592]

Looking for a wet vac recommendations.

Want a vac that does normal dry stuff as well as cleaning fabrics. I don't mind manually agitating carpets etc as long as the wet vac will extract the dirty water.

Or would it be better to get something like the Vax 6131T with carpet cleaning facility?

One with a blower would be a bonus too.

What are people using?

I have a George hoover, which I find really good. Can be used for wet and dry. Good selection of attachments and they are pretty robust. Had mine for a few years and I don't exactly look after it! Pretty decent price wise too.

George/Numatic type thing. Best out there imo.

Forgot to say, the George is a bit too rich for me, especially for the amount of use it'll get.

Anyone tried this?

My hoover has just s**t the bed and I'm in the house with the gf for the foreseeable. She's begging to hoover/clean the carpets cos she's weird so just ordered the George after spending a bit of time reviewing my options.

Will come in handy for the car and other bits is what I'm telling myself

Yeh I got that too in the end.

The only thing that has bugged me with it so far is, when doing a bit of the carpet in the house, the little extractor seems to have so much more suction that the big one but trying to do a large area with the little one is a bit tedious!

Bumping this anyone recommend one for cleaning out farm machinery/vans etc

Been buying the cheapo screwfix ones but hovering up metal filings, stones etc keeps killing them.

When I worked at BMW we used 12 of these in the Bodyshop/valet bay.

They ran
from 7am until 4pm 5 days a week sucking up water, brake fluid, filter dust, dog hair, welding rods.... you name it, it sucked it up. Bloody brilliant machines.

I had a tool station/screw fix £80 one once and it lasted about 2 days. 😂😂

They’re s**t for washing upholstery (but they’re not designed for that) but for the job of sucking stuff up, bloody brilliant.

I've the vax one above.
Perfect for car work

George or a Karcher, used both and the George is a bit better but twice as expensive
