#9: ArmorAll AA255 Utility Wet/Dry Vacuum

I got it for dealing with a leaky AC unit drip pan. I picked this one because of the longer power cord and longer hose. That was important in my selection. The power seemed to be fine... I did have a few design flaw issues to address:

1) When using the Blow mode - the hose does not stay in the hole. The power pushes it out... so you have to keep pushing it back in. That is a Big pain. No idea how to resolve this issue other than just holding it in place.

2) The big headed angled nozzle... well.. this does NOT fit into any of the storage slot on the top... those are just for the smaller parts.

3) The unit does not hold a lot of water. this is not really a design flaw other than be aware. The bucket CAN hold more... but the filter and motor sit down into the bucket... so it takes up space.

Overall - it does the job. Has longer hose/power cord than most. Small portable unit.
