Got the same one and hate it, doesn't hold much water at all and sprays water everywhere!

Prefer the Titan ones.

 

[newcastle phill]

I have the identical one

Love it..sucks very hard. Capacity is sufficient for what i have used it for so far.
Also has a power supply that switches when you use a tool such as a core drill.
Just remember to remove the cartridge filter when doing wet work otherwise it will rot.
(New one a fiver on ebay)

I had this and it definitely sprays water

 

[Jay The Plumber]

[Halesowen1]

Wickes one is better and they are also on a special for £29.99

 

[newcastle phill]

Rubbish deal wicked quite often chuck theirs out at £50 and holds twice as much

 

[newcastle phill]

Bought a draper wet vac from Plumbase on offer at £54 way better than the wickes one i had which blew dust everywhere when vacuuming:mad2:

 

[Jay The Plumber]

got around to using it yesterday when draining a system which didnt have any drain off's.

really good, great suction.. no spraying water etc etc.. I was impressed cos to be frank I thought it was going to be crap when i saw how plastiky it was out of the box.
glad i bought it..

 

[1Steven]

Ok Frank, pleased it worked well for you. :smile5:

[newcastle phill]

Never had a prob with mine used often.
Cant see how its possible to spray water unless youve connected it to the blow instead of suck lol

As we all know sucking and blowing arent the same. Ask my wife - shes an expert with a vacuum and she says so

Also the 22mm pipe connection is handy just to connect vac straight up...

the karcher ones have the horrible tendency to let you down..... horribly

 

[Jay The Plumber]

I was getting the water out of an old rad, horrible dirty water, looked behind me and saw the vac blowing it all over the room... its rubbish.
