I have the 3 gallon vacuum, and I purchased one gallon a few months ago. The absence of the floor attachment on the 1 Gala model is just yet another example of how Ryobi is going cheap on the accessories. Realistically, on a shop-vac, a floor attachment shouldn't even be considered an accessory. I just noticed that over the last few years Ryobi has stopped putting features on to later generations of a model, and stopped including accessories included in previous generations, and they're not big buck items, either. Just smacks of cheapness on the part of the bean counters.
I've had the 3-gallon since the day it came out but I wanted a smaller battery-powered vacuum as well so I bought the Worx cube vacuum which I really like but it lacks suction, and as long as you are okay with it, it is meant for really small jobs as the filter is not much bigger than a K-cup. Having said that I really wish the Ryobi would have been a 1/2-gallon capacity because I feel that the one gallon tank is too close to in physical size to the three gallon tank. The Worx cube vac is _much_ smaller which for me justified the expensive price but I would _never_ pay $80 for the Ryobi 1-gallon however I did get it on sale for $50, which I still think is too much, but I use my vacuums a lot so I picked it up. Fun fact, Ryobi banned me from their UA-cam channel for saying that their car jump pack was way too expensive. 😆
The crevice tool is a major disappointment?? Really? Also, in almost 40 years in construction i've never had a two speed shop vac, or ever even heard of one.... Now on to the rest of this, what else next?????
2:40, there's a spot for extra attachments right on the top
