Bought it used off ebay, it smelled of standing water so an attempt to clean it out was made. Here's kind of an overview Video
Picked up a Quantum Upright

Nice!
Really interested in these since I saw the infomercial on a youtube ad! It's the only upright water vac I know of. I have one of the canisters quantum made (then called Thane) and I've been really happy with it!

Yeah I've seen one water filtration stick vac from Kalorik but the quantum is the only true upright I can think of.
Thane? Are you talking about the H20 vacs?

It was an interesting and informative review, thanks!it does look like it would be a bit top-heavy and prone to fall over I can only imagine with a hose attached.

The motor sounds like the same one as the canister model which I have. I think Quantum discontinued the canister model which is unfortunate, it's a very nice machine.

It's a drop in, off the shelf motor that is used by many water vacuum manufacturers. Quantum, Ritello, Robot, Big Power, Sirena, Ocean Blue, etc. all use the same motor. Water Vacuums that used separators were the theme at the 2019 Vacuum Cleaner Collectors Convention - we had them all there for anyone to see and try. The Rainbow, the Hyla, and the Delphin are the only ones I know of that use unique motors.

what?
Sirena uses the same motor? I thought they were supposed to have some Italian made motor in them

The motor is made by the Italian division of Ametek Lamb I think. The separators on all of these vacs also look really similar.

Hmm
Hopefully that is the case those Italian Ametek motors seem nice.
Airflow and suction testing is done video below but for those just seeking the numbers
Nozzle: 68.85 CFM 26"
Hose: 63.71 CFM 58"

Thanks for the video. I've seen the ads for these on YouTube and noticed there had not been much if any discussion on their uprights yet. I was wondering about them, and now I know.
