  • This Steve's Garage video is something a little different - a product review! I purchased a DeWalt Wet Dry Vacuum, model DXV12P-QT. This vacuum uses DeWalt Stealthsonic technology, and DeWalt claims it's 50% quieter than a standard shop vac.
    I start this video by unboxing and assembling the shop vac. Then I do some quick vacuuming, and finally test it against my older Ridgid Shop Vac, model WD12701.
    This DeWalt Wet Dry Vacuum is the 12 gallon, 5.5hp model, but you can get various sized models with the Stealth Sonic technology. Besides the quiet technology advertised by DeWalt, the other big change over many other shop vacs is the bag hanging off the side for attachment storage. It's definitely a love it or hate it item, let me know what your feelings are about it. Would you buy this vacuum for it's quiet operation and deal with the other features it comes with, or is there a better vacuum out there for your needs? Let me know in the comments!

    How mine is setup (left to right): big floor brush on its side, crevice tool, dusting brush sitting on top to avoid ruining the bristles, wand #1, wand #2 with the small floor head attached

      Because I know I don't use the floor or dusting brush I just have those sitting on a shelf in the basement. Good to know that others have figured out a way to arrange all the attachments in the bag!

    I got mine yesterday and I’m happy it picks up just about anything. It’s quieter than regular vacuums, but it does not have the option to blow leaves so if you’re looking for one to blow leaves, this is not the one to buy.

    • @StevesGarage
      @StevesGarage  3 місяці тому +1

      I assume whatever they do to make the vacuum quiet is the reason it doesn't have the blow function. That's definitely a consideration when buying this vacuum, but I know I've never used that feature so I wasn't too worried about it.
      Glad you like it! The quiet operation is amazing.

    Our old "Kärcher" is really much louder than this. We should keep this model in mind if the old vac is broken!

    • @StevesGarage
      @StevesGarage  Рік тому +1

      Absolutely! It's really the main reason behind me picking this vacuum up. Nothing was wrong with my Rigid vac, but when I heard about this one being so much quieter I had to try it out.

    Man, I just bought the new version of the RIDGID last week. I haven't unboxed it yet, tho. Worth returning for the noise reduction? I appreciated the RIDGID's inclusion of a bunch of car attachments. Videos are lookin crisp, dude.

    • @StevesGarage
      @StevesGarage  Рік тому +1

      The car attachments are definitely a cool part about the Rigid. I would say it all comes down to how you use your vacuum. If how loud the rigid is really isn't a concern, I say stick with it. If you'd appreciate a quieter vacuum because you're using it inside, the Dewalt is the pick.
      I tried some new lighting and different lenses on the old camera for this one, thanks for noticing! I appreciate the comments!

      I have a Ridgid vac, about a year old, and that damn thing is loud as hell. So if it were me, I'd be returning it tomorrow and buying this one.
      I'm looking around to see who carries this one in my area so I can get it, the quietness of it says it all.

    no one on YT has the same dewalt as mine from Costco and nowhere in the manual does it say wtf do to with the dust bag

    • @StevesGarage
      @StevesGarage  8 місяців тому

      On any shop vac I've ever used you just attach the bag to the inside of the port where the hose connects to. The idea is it cuts down on dust and the mess is contained in that bag. Make sure to not suck up anything wet as that will make a giant mess of the bag and whatever is in it.

    Hi. Do you know, if this noise is ok or not? I was doing brakes and by rotating wheel hub noticed that weird noise. I can literally hear sound (which you can hear as well, especually at 0:10) similar to like a lot of metalic balls playing inside. I susprect that it shouldn't be like that. But I don't know, if my assumtion is correct or not

      Did you comment on the wrong video? In any event, are you having any symptoms of a bad axle? The boot looks good, I don't see any grease. That sounds like normal driveline noise to me, but diag over video is always tough. Are you getting any noise or vibration while driving that might point to a bad axle?

      Yes it does. I mention the dust/filter bag when I'm taking all the parts out of the tank. It's the brown paper style.

      @@jiinsescapemusic Nope! That's just a filter bag that you can use to contain a dusty mess. Something like sheetrock dust. But you don't need to have one to use any shop vac.

    How does it make it quieter though

    • @StevesGarage
      @StevesGarage  5 місяців тому

      I believe it's the 2 stage motor that it uses. When I searched it seems that DeWalt is pretty quiet about it. Understandably so since they're the only ones that have this type of quiet vacuum out right now.

      Top one is the vacuum inlet, the bottom is the drain for when you suck up anything wet.
