Pretty handy little tool.

Picked up on of these 20 volt vacuums a few weeks ago, sure is a handy little thing to have around for small clean ups. If you have 20 volt Dewalt stuff, you should consider getting one.

That's a pretty cool tool I would think. Much more quick than dragging out the shop vac for a little mess.
Buddy of mine has one but made by Craftsman. Very handy. I keep a 1.5 gallon mini shop vac just for cleaning up around my lathe, and case trimmer.
We use one of those cordless hand vacs to clean up the combine and tractor cabs. Works well for those.
whoda thunk it. Well yeah,,,,handy
Another handy lil item is the push me pull you carpet sweeper from the 19th century. They work great for little clean ups and cost very little. When you empty it you will be amazed at how well it works.
I think that's about the only De Walt tool I don't have. I just looked and Ace Hardware has them in stock. On second thought I do have the bigger sucker from DeWalt, so I guess I really don't need another one.

just me but I look at the reviews from 3 stars down I consider these negative reviews. This item has 2/3 of the reviews in this range and because of such I would have to pass on it unless I was to get a next to nothing deal on it.......
and if you put the batteries in backwards it may blow also.........
I did notice that it was only at 3.6, but half of the negative reviews were about it's wet capability and that isn't my intended use, just minor clean up here and there. It's amazing how many people will give an item a negative review, when their complaint has nothing to do with the item, such as shipping damage, lost item or they just wished they had gotten a different one.
Ever since the dustbuster, those portable hand vacs have been handy.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I have one of those, it is handy.
Bought a cheaper one from Harbor F and its great for small jobs, sawdust etc
