Great Little Tool,
Very handly tool for small clean up jobs. Great suction for its size. Is compatable with other 1-1/4″ accessories as from Home Depot or Sears if needed.
Opposite end is good for blowing light debris into a more confined area. Very light in weight even with a battery.
Do not expect the power of one battery to last all day so have another battery(s)on hand if you are a neat-nick.
Does not have a shoulder strap but has clip hoops if you buy your own.
You should have an extension cord handy as it has a 6’cord. This is a great little vac for job site, auto, home and don’t be afraid to use on your computer keyboard and CPU if that is in a dusty environment (with care of course).
Outdoors people will find it handy with the battery(s) for quick tent clean up or as a fireplace bellows without passing out blowing.
If you do not need the versatility and expense of corded/cordless, it is not for you. After all, it was designed just for that versatility and the price is not unfair, considering.
If you do not already have Dewalt batteries, the price will be more in order to accomodate the battery power but if you need/want the cordless feature, and a small, cordless, wet/dry, vac/blower for small jobs this thing is great. If you need more power you will have to buy something bigger or less versatility.
Dewalt could have thrown in a shoulder strap. (Had to find something bad)…
…Oh yeah, wife thought I was nuts for paying a hundred bucks for this, until she used it. She loves it and after remindinding her of her intial response, I finally, did get an apology out of her…That does carry some weight too…It reduces the pain of bla, bla, bla.
She read my review and laughed about my posting her thoughts with her just saying…OK OK…

|Excellent for it’s intended application,
I can’t believe some people are dissing this because they thought it could be a shop vac replacement. If it could, no one would buy any shop vacs! And I also can’t believe people think that this kind of money would buy them a charger and battery all included. Not exactly reasonable expectations.
What IS reasonable is to expect this to be a great tool for quick clean ups. Hanging pics, minor trim projects, installed closets, etc. All things that generate a mess that isn’t worth setting up a shop vac, including hauling a probably dirty and bulky unit into the house, or worse a customer’s house, running a cord etc. for a 2 minute clean up. If you want to clean up your car quick or pick up some dust or shavings from a smaller job, this IS the ticket. I have even used it as dust collection on my miter for that occasional cut or two.
If you are already a DeWalt user with batteries and chargers for other tools, this is a great complement to your gear. If not, it certainly doesn’t warrant going out and buying the charger and battery for a stand alone vacuum. Use your head.

|Great Vacuum for small projects,
I’ve owned this for about 2 months now and actually have used it a lot more than I thought that I would. For its size, it has good vacuum power. In fact the power is the same whether you are on the cord or the battery. Some have complained that you only get :10 minutes of use. Well, that’s a lot of use. You are not supposed to vacuum the house. Typically I have it on for about 30 seconds to a minute. I think that I am getting more than 10 minutes of use by the way. It’s great for cleaning up small messes and I think that it has amazing suck power.
Things that I would like to see improved:
1. Add a battery charger
2. The cord should be about 3 feet longer
3. The price is a little steep, but no one else is making this thing and they have to pay for all those NASCAR’s.
All in all it’s a great little tool especially if you are a handy man and want to leave your clients house clean.
