Best Shop Vac? Ridgid vs Shop Vac, DeWalt, Stanley, Hart, Craftsman
SHOP VACS TESTED: Ridgid, Craftsman, Shop Vac, Bauer, DeWalt, Hart, and Stanley tested for horsepower, air speed, suction and noise level. Testing also included speed of vacuuming 5 gallons of water and 50 pounds of sand. Total water holding capacity also measured for each brand. Finally, each brand participated in a "grudge" match when the suction hoses were joined together. Hope you enjoy the video and thank you for supporting the channel. Best regards, Todd

I had a lot of fun with testing the shop vacs, especially the grudge match near the end of the video! A huge "thank you" for the video suggestions! Trust me, the shopping cart is rolling faster and faster with some more tool videos on the way. Hope everyone has a great week and looking forward to reading your comments!! Best regards, Todd
Thanks for all that you do!
You bless the world with invaluable information in every video you post thank you for the dedication to giving a live consumer review of products that are important to me.
By any chance can you caption the gallons and weight to liters and kilos ? Its very hard to understand for us folks in the world. Other than that, thank you for all ghe information and help with your videos!
Wish you had used the Kubota one.
@ProjectFarm - would love to see a video on the best Paint Strippers. Either Toxic, Non-toxic, All Natural or whatever. Would really love to know what the best in those divisions are. Love your videos, keep up the great work. #ProjectFarmTestedandApproved
"Assembled in the USA" "*By the purchaser" 😂😂
yeah my thought exactly . Between that and Bauer boxing matches I couldn't stop laughing ,
lol Thanks for watching.
@@uuuultra zzz
😂😂😂
True they know where it was intended to be sold! Lol
Before I buy anything I always check to see if you've done a comparison.
Nice! Thanks for watching.
You’re damn right, as you should haha!
It's all made in the same chïnese factory They just slap a different logo on it
Definitely agree ,can't beat his unbiased testing!
uuuultra ✔️ wrong, you forgot about the Mexican factories
You should test the warranties on companies and see who really backs their product up.
I’ve had good results with dewalt. I have a problem with one of their flashlights I contacted them and they shipped a new one.
Yep yep
Serious question: Companies deciding length of warranty....does that apply to more stuff? Like appliances, home electronics, tools, etc.?
THAT would be cool
I know from experience shop vac won't honor their warranty unless you have the original receipt. Which if it's a couple years down the road is unlikely.
Just a reminder....even your 2 year old videos are STILL extremely helpful! Lookin for a compact but between your cordless & corded shop vac reviews, I'll be going with a RIGID compact. This channel rules. I love how methodical your tests are, no specs, just real world testing which is far more important imo. Even for tools i have absolutely no need for, I can't stop watching. It's like watching Olympics for tools...soo addicting gj
Thanks and you are welcome!
and he even still replies to new comments 2 years later. PF will always be one of my favorites.
4:38 “Assembled in USA” because it’s assembled by the consumer hahaha
made with ''global'' products China :)
lol Thanks for watching.
"Assembled in USA" means they put the finished parts in a box...no kidding.
Corporate America and China both use the consumers for quality control testing, some of the American corporations will generally make up for the problem if you will just call customer service which I do quite often. Forty years ago we had no need of QC as many of the workers were responsible for good quality, Corporate America and China sure took care of that !
My exact thought
I'll never be able to read another Consumers Reports "test" again. They look amateur compared to PF
Haven't trusted them after what they did to the Suzuki Samurai
Project Farm is like a hands-on version of Consumer Reports. It really helps when you can see the items being tested and the methodology.
@@therealtimmyjimmy1306 that's a fat mood
So many, especially nowadays, are just spec sheets side by side, where a simple program could (and definitely does in some cases) just write the comparisons. PF actually shows everything and doesn't pick a clear winner most of the time, it actually gives you real world info and compares them in a useful manner. And any company is going to just focus on making the box specs look good, as evidenced by some of these vacuums having higher PHP, but drawing much less power, meaning they're doing less actual work.
@@fireyblackdragon like, where else am I going to find the 'time to succ 50 lbs of sand' and 'actually holds X gallons of water' on a lame spec sheet
Interesting that the DeWalt was the quietest, then won every performance test except airflow, and didn’t even get a mention in the closing comments.
Other vacs must have done better then I guess
@@Jsfletch02 literally they all performed worse in all but one test.
I have a real Sears Craftsman I paid $99.87 for about 22 years ago. It still runs great and zero problems. But if I bought a shop vac today; I would go with a Rigid. How can you beat a lifetime warranty on their tools. I love their 18volt power tools as well; also backed by lifetime warranty including the lithium batteries. But I am glad to see an impressive comparison test. Wow!
Thanks!
I remember when Consumer Reports was the go-to for product comparison. Now it's Project Farm.
Wow! Thanks.
Consumer Reports is garbage. They take "donations" from numerous manufacturers, therefore biased.
@Big Crunch ditto to what Tyler said. This is my go-to resource. Keep up the good work Project Farm!!!!
Now we going to send you to engineering school so you can make even better testing lol
@Big Crunch Mahk
"assembled in the USA" - makes you assemble it, only sold in the USA. Brilliant legal team behind that marketing.
Thanks for the feedback.
Drive it to Canada and assemble it, then sue for false advertising. It's foolproof.
I was thinking the same thing.
Assembled in [INSERT YOUR COUNTRY HERE]
That is not what this means... It means they actually build all the separate components overseas (China, Mexico, whatever) and then they assemble the various components here in USA so that they can get around certain taxes, customs and of course so they can say "assembled in the USA" to make you feel better.
I needed a more compact shop vac, so I bought the 8-gallon version of the Craftsman based on this video. It rocks! Thanks for helping us all spend our money confidently!
You are welcome! Glad to hear!

I'd really love to see a section at the end of the video with all the charts from the tests on one screen. I find I need to takes notes of each tests chart to compare all the results. It would be way easier and better to have them all in one place. Thank you very much for all of your time, money, and effort that you put into these videos.
You are welcome! Thanks for the constructive feedback.
4:46 Well… you definitely assembled it in the USA!
lol. Great point!
But. What if a Canadian buy is it
@@keatonmiller7883 Huey helicopters will fly over the horizon and claim your property as part of the USA.
Lol ya beat me to it!
Dam thought I was the only person to say it
To be fair: That Shop Vac was assembled in the U.S. because you did all the assembly.
lol That I did!
Unfortunately there maybe no more shop vac brand anymore they just shut down a plant in my area.
Shit, this guy beat me to writing this comment.
The parts are made in Williamsport p.a and for shipping you do have some assembly. And they have the best customer service.
@@staggdegraaff1531 Not anymore the factory shut down a few weeks ago
Bought a Bauer from HF a few months ago and have been very impressed. It will suck up anything. We have 100+ year hardwood floors in parts of our house and the Bauer makes quick work of all the crumbs, hair, dirt, etc. that end up between the gaps.
Thanks for sharing.
I’m likely to pick up the 9 gallon Bauer based of this video
I work for a large construction company, We use Rigid brand, the lids are not loose like showing on this video! Its an Amazing Shop Vac!
"Assembled in USA" is technically correct when you have to assemble the entire thing at home after purchasing Lol
Thanks for the feedback.
so you are saying the Avengers were imported and assemble in USA too? Mind-blow!!!
That's what I was thinking 😂😂😂
Assembled By You, Ese
😂
Anyone watches his videos when stressed out? Something about his presentation and tone is very calming while also being educational.
Haha yup, I'm here taking a break from studying for a forest ecology/tree ecophysiology exam lol
Yeah man, I'm taking a rejection super rough rn. Just trying to not think about it
I think KZhead in general is a great way to escape the general stress in life. Finding awesome content like this helps us all out!
Yes. I enjoy re-watching the second of his lubricating/penetrant spray videos for some reason. I switched from WD-40 to Seafoam Deep Creep because of him and I have been very pleased with it.
Yes
Thanks for the comparison video! I was excited to buy our first wet dry vacuum after using someone else's the cleaner garage, and using your comparison video, I went with the 14 gallon Bauer vacuum from Harbor Freight. It's on its way right now, and I can't wait to put it together!
An important test would be to pull the vacuum around by the hose over various surfaces to see which ones are the most stable. My pet peeve is “tippy” shop vacuums. Thanks for posting so much great content. Love your channel!
indeed
I've got a Ridgid HD1200 12 gallon and it has a wide base for the 4 casters. Sometimes it's too big to roll into some places. It's much better than my old shop vac.
Just add some weight to the bottom and maybe better wheels.
Yes! Huge pet peeve of mine too. It's such a hassle to reset the vac after a topple
"The shop vac brand is assembled in the USA." Yeah, assembled by the end user 🤣
lol. Great point!
What if I’m in Canada? lol
I thought the same thing🤣🤣🤣
Shopvac was a total letdown. I have their mini version I bought Black Friday for $10 almost 11 years and and does the job though. I was rooting for it though..
LOLLLL
This guy has to be the most honest and respectable KZheadr on this platform, he spends hundreds of dollars on every video on equipment, goes above and beyond with the tests for each piece of equipment, throughly testing of what piece of equipment is capable of and how they compare to their counterparts, the presenting of the videos is also appealing and also addicting to watch especially tests being very unique, he listens to his audience while being very open minded to what they suggest and even makes comments on about every comment I see and has done so for years! Outstanding job, keep up the great work.
Thanks so much!
I agree. I commented on how he stores his hay bales outside, with a reason why could be better. He replied, with a thanks and I'll try it. (something like that) Good comment Stacksofslaps
I wonder what @Project Farm 's wife thinks of his KZhead job. At least her man is home all day, when he's not out buying stuff, even if there is tons of noise coming from the garage. Heh
@@ProjectFarm Great video. The only thing I would have added would have been to show the ammeter during at least one of the load conditions. I don't think I've seen the Bauer or Hart brands before. Who sells those?
Amen. Best reviews ever. I watch every single one.
Best comparison video on KZhead. I didn’t have to fast forward to any part. Your editing style brings me all the information I need without any fluff. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
wow what an excellent review. I love the objective tests that show clear metrics. Much better than some of the subjective reviewers out there! I very much appreciate the time taken to conduct the test, as they were factors when deciding to purchase my first shop vac.
Tomorrow: 9 vacuums for sale, light use very good condition
lol Thanks for watching.

Aw, hoping for battery operated vacs
I can do those too if there's enough interest. I'll check back for "likes" as well as suggestions for brands

Project Farm i second this and think the dyson v10 should be one tested, I own one I think it’s pretty great but I don’t know if it’s really worth the £350 it costs.
If you test these, definetly include xiaomi!
I’m interested to see Milwaukee’s new brushless m18 and m12 battery powered vacuums that are soon to come out
Can not thank you enough for all your videos. You have become my go-to for research even over consumer reports. 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome comparison. I was about to buy the rigid but I guess I’m going for the craftsman now! Thank you so much for taking the time and the resources to create an in-depth and unbiased comparison!

To be fair, the "Assembled in USA" seems pretty true since YOU assembled nearly all of it.

I don't think I would have been bright enough to think of that type of test
Thank you so much for all that you do to test so many products and tools. You are definitely appreciated. Blessing upon blessings.
I had to check if you did a video on shop vacs before I purchase one for my husband for Christmas. The effort you put in is far superior than anyone else. Thanks for all your video comparisons!

I can't believe you resisted the title "Which Shop Vac Sucks the Most?"
Thanks for watching.
😂🤣
@EFormance Engineering Yep, PF would be on the cusp of YT legends.
Would the winner be the one that sucks the least or the one that sucks the most?
@@greeceuranusputin LOL yea. Sad that the current owners of YT have no sense of humor, they'd probably give PF a demerit for doing so.
Excellent as usual, thank you for inspecting the different aspect/ features of the shop vacs, makes it easier to choose one for the purpose that you are buying it for (water suction, dirt, suction power etc)
I really enjoy you helping me pick some of my stuff out. Somehow I always get stuck with mostly craftsman stuff but for not more than I use it. It does the job. Thanks for your testing stuff
You are welcome!
Who else liked the video at the start of the video.....because....it Project Farm!
Thank you very much!
I agreed.
Me 👋🏽👍🏽
@@ProjectFarm man, thank you for all you do. Hopefully soon product manufacturers will start putting "project farm approved" or something similar on their packaging. That'd be awesome!
You said that a company standing behind their product is important and I couldn't agree more. But a warranty on paper doesn't mean anything if it isn't backed up in the real world. So, here is another video idea. Test the warranties from the big brands. Can you go in store, or do you have to ship off to a service center? Who pays for shipping? What kind of wait to have the tool repaired or replaced? You could even test the big stores extended warranties and see if they are worth anything. ie. Does Harbor Freight really stand behind their "Extended Service Plan"?
This.
Would love to see this too
I second this. Definitely compare warranties, both with the tool manufacturers and the stores that sell them.
Important info yes but nobody is going to watch a video of being on the phone or at the store trying to get warranty. The best case is still going to be boring.
I agree, I have bought products from big-name "high end" brands that have claimed lifetime warranties, only to be slighted by their warranty refusal after normal wear and tear. I typically try to buy a product that I think is a good balance of value and quality out of the box, and I imagine how long it may last me for the money spent, regardless of warranty promises.
Thanks for listing the noise (dB) levels. After decades my old, but quite, shop vac had to be replaced by one I purchased at Home Depot. It also is LOUD like the Shop Vac brand. I contacted the company who affirmed that dB level.
Awesome testing! Loved the engineering thinking in crafting the tests and the spots of humor throughout.
Thanks so much!
"what did you do today honey?" "nothing, just some vacuum suction fights in the garage"

I don't even live in the USA, so I'll probably never see any of these products available at any store near my home. anyway, i keep watching each video, simply because they are so freaking good, very informative, and fun to watch .
Thanks for watching!
Wallmart owns Asda.
@@pqrstzxerty1296 All Asdas are Wallmart but not all Wallmarts are Asdas... Point I'm trying to make is Asda =/= Wallmart. Asda is pretty much food & grocery only, whereas Wallmart is everything and even sometimes contains _other_ shops! Where else can you get a sandwich, a TV, a bite from KFC, a really powerful vacuum, and *still* be able to go a few isles over and buy a *gun AND ammo* for said gun. And if Covid hadn't happened when it did, Wallmart likely wouldn't own a _majority_ share in Asda. They don't fully own Asda, they just own _more_ of it than anyone else right now.
same here. but since most products are made in china ... what's the difference ?! ;-)
That's awesome dude! Where are you? Brasil? I bet there are many of the same vacs there, just rebranded...
I've had my Craftsman 16 gallon for 25 years and it is still going strong!! Great video!
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for another excellent review. I'm in the market for a new shop vac, so this was very helpful. I appreciate everything you do for us. Keep up the solid work.
Thanks, will do.
Personally I'll be buying a dewalt after this. The sand sucking simply sold me👍👍
Thanks for sharing.
See the simply sucking sand ceremony; superb, silly, SOLD!
@@kevin9c1 all always appreciate awesome alliteration!
Instead of using the old saying and tell people to go pound sand, we can now tell them to go suck sand. LMAO 😂
I bet you could get that bauer on sale with a 2 year guaranteed warranty for less than the Dewalt. If it breaks for any reason in 2 years, you go back to the store and get a new one. That dewalt warranty is basically worthless.
I never thought I would be exited to watch shopvac races😂
Thanks for watching.
another great video ,I love the testing methods .this is a product many people need for clean up after storms and flooding
I always watch your videos before I buy any tool. Thank you for always providing us with these exceptional tests…think I’ll be grabbing the Bauer thanks to you! God bless and keep up the great work

Much needed video! Ive been in the market for a shop vac and could never decide.
Awesome! I gave them all a tough test! Hope the video helps you decide.
Just don't get too big of a capacity, as they are heavy when full. A 5gal is about right if you have to pick it up and dump it into something...Trust me, I know.
@@MrDLRu very sound advice. Much appreciated. Brand performance I would assume is consistant across sizes?
The rigid is a very well built vacuum i abused mine left it in the rain many times dropped it. Really just beat on that poor thing but it has lasted me over four years of very abusive construction clean up and many thousands of gallons of dirty water sucked up
@@connorhoffman6702 If they're using the same motor, I would assume yes...But really can't say for sure. Craftsman (Lowe's) is making some good stuff these days. I would check reviews for a good indication, though not absolute like with the PF reviews.

I work at a shipyard and we build navy boats such as LCS and MMSC. We use craftsman, we have molten metal fall on them, they fall off of ladders they get chucked across confined areas and we use them to vacuum metal shavings, pieces of welding wire and small pieces of steel. Craftsman works.

So ShopVac was technically correct: despite needing quite a bit of assembly, it was assembled in the US 😂
lol. Great point!
unless it was sold in Canada
Going to assemble mine in Mexico and claim false advertisement.
I really enjoy and appreciate the work you put into testing products, simply awesome and keep it up. One thing I thought about when you were doing the pull-down suction/weight test with the rubber ball would be to change the diameter of the ball so each hose size has the same 'mating ratio'. So that the mating surfaces between the hose and ball are as identical as possible (ie, if one hose was only 0.500" it wouldn't have nearly the suction-area as a hose that was barely-smaller than the diameter of the ball). Definitely loving the vids :)
Thanks, will do. Thanks for the suggestion.
I was in the market for a shop vac and was so glad that you made this video. made me confident about my choice.
Thanks! Glad to hear!
I feel like I shouldn’t even buy socks without your INTENSE testing
Thanks for watching.
LMoLOLAO BEST COMMENT RIGHT THERE lololol
Yes ...perfect, socks!!! Test socks !!!
I love your videos! You should do one on the best shop lift, or engine lift. Many folks need to move or lift very heavy objects, 1-2 tons, and it is hard to know which product is the best. Thanks again!!
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
Honestly? I'm here for the creative ways you find to test those products and the rigs you build to achieve that. I LOOOOVE your creativity.

Maybe you can do a video on shop vac cyclone separators. Like the Dust Deputy and the Dustopper and others. It would be interesting to see what filters the best, has the least air restrictions, among other parameters. it would be a valuable addition to this video.
My first comment on PF, sorry for that, but i rly appreciate all the time and effort You put into this. It really helps us end consumers! Thanks from Sweden
Greetings and thank you very much!
These “horsepower” numbers vacuum companies use are a total crock of poop
If one lies the rest have to aswell., to avoid unfair competition...
It’s basically it’s rated start up or peak HP. But once the motor gets up to speed it takes very little HP to maintain motor RPM.
for real, what about the capacity!? 16/14 gal what a load of BS
Most amount of crap is either shop-vac HP, or air compressor CFM output. Compressor companies rate their compressor’s air flow at 1atm, while tool companies rate tool air usage at 90psi.
Yea, reminds me of amp hours on batteries. They basically just write random numbers
I have to say this is my go to source for product performance. I've made several buys from the information from this channel.
Thanks for sharing.

Seriously, this guy is a Legend!
Apologies for a double comment but something needs addressed right now. Far too many of us have not taken the time to appreciate the work which actually goes into each video. The time spent editing and arranging all of the footage into the final product alone is more than note worthy. The narration itself is an entire additional step which I am pretty sure is not a one take effort. Here is where I lose a lot of people. lol If you were to go to a "pay to view" format, I would not hesitate to pay. Because in the end, all videos are WELL produced. And all data is as accurate as humanly possible at all times. Never is there a hidden string holding something together making it work. What you see IS how it is. And at the end of the day, I respect honesty and intellect. Seriously, very well done. I honestly feel you are going to obtain undeniable fame the nation over which spreads way beyond youtube. How far you go is up to you. But many of us will be right there supporting you the entire trip. All we ask is make at least one attempt to avoid selling out to netflix. lol They take WAY TOO MUCH of the star's money.

@@theduder2617 Then, as you wrote almost a book when you comment anyway, you should have used some of your writing to actually say what you meant. Also, if he goes "pay to view ", many of us wouldn't be able to watch because, you know, so much unemployment and a very unstable economy. Even without the pandemic some of us may not be able to justify paying for things like this. At the end, they are doing it for their own reasons and helping all of us by doing it, so you, mr reach, don't kill it for all of us.
Getting my dad a shop vac for Christmas and this video really helped. Thank you!
You are welcome! Glad I could help.
Thank you for this and your other great testing videos! A really fun test would be a modern craftsman shop vac vs one from 20 years ago 😂
Thanks for the suggestion.
This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodprix designs.
Thanks for the feedback.
I have done very similar with Woodprix designs. Thanks for tip
Honestly. Nothing warms my cold heart like buying a Craftsman vacuum a year a go and then coming here to find that it tested one of the best overall with a good warranty. 😂Thank you for these fantastic videos!
You are welcome!
As I mentioned in another comment, I've had my craftsman for over 15 years and have used it super hard all along. Still rocks!
Im thinking the craftsman shop vac is a rebranded ridgid, ridgid is the best shop vac in my opinion they might not roll after 5 years of hard use but they last forever
@@jontheguy595 not the Craftsman I have, which is over 15 years old and still kicking.
Jonathan K good thing it’s your opinion because factually that’s not true. Craftsman beat Ridgid. No company would rebrand a product and have it perform better than their own name.
You sir are a genius!! I love all the comparisons and assembly instructions. Brilliant!!
Thanks so much!
Great work, really enjoy these videos! How about doing a vac bag comparison? I find some rip apart when full, so you could check durability as well as filtering quality of the different grades and brands.
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for the video idea.
Your self-created test methods are brilliant, effective and entertaining! Be careful, someone's gonna steal you for their R&D department!! Thanks so much👍
You are welcome!
“3 year warranty. We’re going to test that!”
Thanks for watching.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for that video. I have a rigid vacuum with a lifetime warranty and watching your video. You reminded me that they do have a lifetime warranty without this video. I would not have been able to bring the vacuum back to Home Depot and get a brand new one. This next vacuum is on Home Depot, thank you so much for the video
You are welcome!
Hey Todd, could you please think about doing a refresher on this subject? After 3 years, it'd be advantageous to create a new review video, considering wet/dry vacuums' new and improved models.
