CRAFTSMAN CMXEVBE17595 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP Wet Dry Shop Vacuum

This shop vac has been great for projects around the house. It has plenty of suction and handles bigger messes that a regular vacuum just can’t tackle. The large capacity is especially convenient because you’re not constantly stopping to empty it, and having the different attachments makes it useful for all kinds of cleanup. It feels sturdy and powerful and has quickly become one of those tools we’re glad to have around. Five stars!

This Craftsman 16-gallon vac is a powerhouse! The suction is super strong—it picks up everything from dust to big messes with no problem. I use it in my garage and for cleaning my car, and it works great for both. The tank holds a lot, it’s easy to move around, and the attachments are really useful. It’s also not too loud for how powerful it is. Definitely worth the money—solid quality and does exactly what it’s supposed to do!

There isn’t much to say besides this vac comes out of the box already IN STRAIGHT UP BEAST MODE… Ive had Dewalt, Ridgid, Bauer, and Hart brand vacs, and some of those were alright, but not a single one even comes close to being able to go toe 2 toe with this Craftsman. I’m completely blown away because i stopped buying anything craftsman when sears closed and the brand went to crap, but a buddy recommended this vac and promised me I wouldn’t be disappointed, and man was he right. This 6.5hp model with 16gallon tank is a bit bulky in some situations and a little difficult to maneuver into place at times because of its physical size, but the pure raw power it has more than makes up for it. Although i have found that the 20ft hose extension is a MUST HAVE and drastically helps out with not having to maneuver it around so much. I have never felt a vacuum of any kind or any brand have this much suction. I swear if it would fit down the hose, this thing would honest to god suck up a brick. Also for its HP and size, it’s shockingly quiet, especially if you order the diffuser thingy that goes in the air output and acts kind of like a muffler of sorts. I’ve learned to always keep bags in my vacs and also order the reusable and cleanable filters for inside it. If I could give it 10 stars I would.

I bought the entire package with the exhaust filter th& the extended hose. With 6 and 1/2 horsepower, 16 gallons makes it possible to set this outside and vacuum out some really nasty stuff without worrying about having to get a HEPA filter. I still wear a full face filter but it don't play getting that stuff out of there. The drain for such a large capacity is a nice touch really necessary.

This vac has great suction power! I had just purchased a smaller, more compact, wet/dry vac and it was a huge disappointment, so we bought this craftsman with a bigger motor. It does NOT disappoint in that respect! It does have a nice long cord which makes getting around your whole car without unplugging nice. It definitely gets all of the dirt out of our car carpets and shop floors. My only complaint is the size. It's just so big and the hose is huge, which is great for woodshops but for the regular guy who just wants to vacuum the car, its cumbersome. That's the reason for the 4-star rating. That and the lack of onboard storage. I'd love to have this size motor but with a smaller body and hose that is more limber, but I couldn't find one. This hose almost fights you while using it because it's so big and stiff. At the price point it would've been nice to have that option. Overall, if you have the space to store it, it's a great shop vac.

Still 'Made' By USA Emerson (despite manufactured in MX), one of the original suppliers of shop vacs to Sears / Craftsman. You can tell by the CMXE model numbers. Bought this to replace my 45 year old 20 gallon Craftsman shop vac that had given great service but whose sucking capacity was waning. New design holds the tools and hose. This 16 gal is the same performance as the 20, but lower priced and meets my 'downsizing.' Found it a little odd that the 20 gal includes the 'muffler' that primarily diffuses the outbound air, but for the 16, I had to buy it (as 3rd party version). So far stable to roll around, but I wish the casters were rubber and a little larger diameter versus small plastic.

This thing puts my Animal Ball 3 Dyson to shame. It's so straight up utilitarian as well. It'll eat just about anything with tons of power. I slid this along the edge of the wall and it sucked up tons of dust from under the wall where some floor molding used to be to where I was seeing just clear clean wood underneath, it's crazy. You can also get some relatively inexpensive fine dust filters or liquid filter and use it to clean up just about any mess with relative ease. Not to mention the ability to attach it to power tools so it'll suck up all the dust and debris as you work on DIY home projects. It's just something most people should own, IMO. Can't believe I spent such a good amount of my life not knowing how useful these things are.

Went together really easy and I'm not good at putting things together so that's saying something. Wheels snap on with no tools. Only the hose clips and top handle needed one single screw. Tried it out briefly and it works great.

J’ai récemment acheté le CRAFTSMAN CMXEVBE17595 Aspirateur d’atelier 16 gallons (60 L) et je dois dire que c’est un véritable monstre de puissance. Idéal pour le garage, le chantier ou même le nettoyage automobile, cet aspirateur ne recule devant rien. La puissance d’aspiration est impressionnante, que ce soit pour la poussière, les débris, ou l’eau. Je l’ai testé pour nettoyer mon garage, aspirer de l’eau sur des tapis de voiture et même sur un petit dégât d’eau à la maison : il a tout avalé sans problème. La capacité de 16 gallons est parfaite pour les gros travaux, ce qui évite de devoir vider constamment le bac. Les accessoires inclus sont très pratiques et le tuyau large permet d’aspirer des débris plus gros sans blocage. J’apprécie aussi la fonction souffleur intégrée, puissante et utile pour dégager les feuilles ou nettoyer rapidement une surface. Solide, facile à déplacer malgré sa taille grâce aux roulettes, et très stable, c’est selon moi un excellent choix pour ceux qui veulent un aspirateur fiable et performant sur le long terme.

Very powerful. Ended up being too good for the purpose it was bought for (detailing). More fit for purpose and suited to industrial work. Had to return due to unfortunate circumstances but it was dealt with very well with refund put into place.

Excelente

This vacuum is excellent, bought for shop and worked great with an add on dust collection system. But it’s one of the strongest vacuums I have ever used, it beats the self car wash vacuum station by far. Can clean car mats and rug and seats in minutes even with my huskies hair. I’m considering buying a second one for in home use. The included head attachments are excellent. Huge canister. No complaints.

Buena potencia me ayudó a drenar la mugre de los sillones, estaban horriblemente sucios, eso facilita que se seque pronto yo podría una bolsa más de repuesto para la basura liquida Pero fuera de ello todo bien hasta el momento
