Best Cordless Wet-Dry Vacuums

The DEWALT DCV581H 18/20v MAX* Cordless/Corded Wet-Dry Vacuum is designed for a variety of cleaning modes: wet or dry, corded or cordless. With this kind of toolset, you'll be able to handle even the most challenging cleaning. Those parts of your apartment you usually find problematic to reach will not be an issue anymore. If an AC outlet is far or out of order, you can take advantage of the built-in 18v or 20v MAX battery to carry on your work. That's going to come in handy for car cleanups as you won't have to stretch the cord all the way out to your driveway. We do have to mention that the battery and the charger have to be bought separately.

The vacuum features a HEPA-rated wet/dry filter that catches dust with 99.97% efficiency, even particles as small as 1 micron, important for people with allergies. The filter is easily accessible and washable with a simple rinse enough to keep it clean. The DEWALT DCV581H is equipped with a fully integrated 5' hose that is heavy-duty and crush-resistant, flexible, durable, and easy to use. For your convenience, the hose is stored in the special accessory compartment. That way the vacuum takes up less space and is easier to transport. There are also several attachments for more enhanced cleaning, such as a crevice tool and a wide nozzle tool. This vacuum is a great solution for those who prefer paying a bit more to get truly durable and reliable items.

Would you be interested in a tiny but powerful vacuum that is easily stored and transported? If so, this compact 3-gallon vacuum is made for you. It's as powerful as an appliance twice its size, proving that not all vacuums have to be bulky and cumbersome. This model features a 3.5 peak horsepower motor, packed into the device's body to reduce noise.

Due to its unique built-in suction-powered dustpan, you will need less time and efforts to remove all the dust and debris from your car or nooks in the house. We recommend using the special car nozzle to really get dust and dirt out of the crevices in the seats. Even if you plug the vacuum into a socket in the house, you should have no trouble reaching the car in the driveway thanks to the 10-foot power cord and a 7-foot hose. Moreover, the car nozzle has built-in LED which lights up dark areas where dirt and dust are likely to hide.

You can rest assured that the air quality in your home will be great owing to the pleated paper filter and a dust collection bag integrated into the device. These two tools will trap dry debris and keep the internal parts of the vacuum clean. Also, they will, of course, keep dust from escaping the vacuum's filters. It is the best wet-dry vacuum for your car as it combines low weight and compactness with high capacity and excellent performance.

The Milwaukee M18 is a wonderful cordless wet-dry vacuum that offers longer than average operation time for deeper cleaning and dealing with big messes. The excellent tidying is achieved in part thanks to the high air power and suction that remove dust, dirt, and water fast and leave nothing behind. Even the filter has several advantages: first, it is washable and reusable; second, it applies the CleanStream filtration technology that picks up even the tiniest dust particles, a key feature for people with allergies; third, the filter does not require changing between dry and wet cleaning.

A built-in blower port allows the vacuum to double as a blower to keep both your home and your yard free of debris and leaves. We also can't pass up the chance to praise this vacuum's portability as the on-board hose and accessory storage makes it easy to carry. We do wish that there were a few attachments beyond the standard ones. As is, you get a crevice tool and a wide utility nozzle, pretty average. The vacuum is compatible with all Milwaukee 18-volt slide-on batteries, Li-ion or NiCd. However, neither a battery pack nor a charger is included with the purchase.

But despite these small flaws, we can clearly see that the Milwaukee M18 is a convenient, powerful, and efficient cleaning tool. It may lag behind some corded models but it is one of the undisputed leaders among the cordless vacuums.

The DCV580 18/20V MAX Cordless Wet-Dry Vacuum is a battery powered wet-dry vacuum that can suck up to 2 gallons of wet or dry dirt. Its 2-gallon tank capacity is sufficient to clear a big mess or a clogged pipe. And you don't have to worry about the device giving out in the middle of cleanup as it uses a reliable 18V or 20V MAX battery.

It also boasts a heavy-duty, crush-resistant, fully-integrated 5' hose. It also features an accessory storage and heavy-duty construction. The HEPA-rated wet/dry filter traps dust with maximum efficiency, catching particles as small as 0.3 microns. The filter is easily accessible, washable, and reusable and you can clean it out in a matter of minutes. If you prefer to spend little time on tool maintenance, this is a great choice.

The vacuum is suitable for cleaning houses, garages, and even cars as it's not restricted by any cord and thus can reach any space. We do have to admit that this vacuum is not top of the range in terms of motor capacity, but its other features are good enough to overshadow that flaw. You can certainly use it comfortably for regular and efficient wet or dry operation.

All in all, this model is worth your attention as it is guaranteed to have a long service life and offer powerful cleaning with speedy mess removal from all corners, pipes, and even your vehicle.

Initially designed for more than mere household cleaning tasks, many wet/dry vacs might eventually fail in more harsh conditions or professional use. Many but not this cordless model from Makita. Distinguished by high-quality build and thought-out design, most Makita tools are good both for DIY and for commercial use. And this cleaner is not an exception.

Powered by an 18V battery (sold separately) and driven by an advanced brushless motor, this vac boasts truly high suction force at 57CFM to pick up all sorts of wastes and debris like a charm. So, removing some minor construction waste, cleaning in the workshop and garage, performing a spring clean after home repairs, or sucking out clogged drains will be an easy task. Besides, the unit can convert to a blower in an instant to clear your yard, garden, outdoor paths, and driveways, thus, saving you the need to buy a separate appliance for that.

A specially protected battery compartment along with the branded Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) ensuring improved moist and dust resistance provides for safe and damage-free use of the vac under harsh conditions of commercial job sites. At the same time, the vac is distinguished by a lightweight construction (weighing only 10 lbs with a battery installed) that makes it fairly portable. To further enhance the portability, there are even two tethering hooks on the top of the unit for an optional shoulder strap.

Though you’ll have to buy the battery (unless you already have some Makita tool powered by the 18V LXT 5.0 Ah battery), in return you’ll get up to 60 minutes of runtime and enjoy three times faster charging.

To wrap it up, there is nothing to dislike about this wet/dry vac from Makita that will deliver impressively powerful performance and come in helpful both for home and for commercial use.
