I have this Shop Vac by Ridgid & like it a lot. Only problems are it doesn't use disposable tank 'liners' (bags) & the blower wheel fell apart (when using vac in Blower mode) If anyone has this vac, U should either use the hose instead of swinging the motor side/side OR put a paper towel on intake so sand doesn't get into the fan.
