FLEX24V Brushless 1.6 Gallon Wet/Dry Tool Only Vacuum Cleaner, Grey

Flex is good. This vacuum is great for cleaning little messes after cutting into Sheetrock. I wished the oscillating saw had universal blades like DeWalt and Milwaukee but great tools. I have the Flex impact, oscillating tool, grinder, band saw, and vacuum.

I have to say I normally use Ryobi tools but I found the lack of power of the circular saw a good reason to make a change. I bought the Flex circular worm saw and was blown away. Then came the sawzall, spare batteries and now the vacuum. I am a pest control guy by trade and I end up using a vacuum a ton to get problems under control. I know this isn't the average user job but I can say it has a ton of power. I also used it on my truck and it was able to do the same job as my 5 gal corded Ridged vac. I love the hepa filter and the bags are a must for me, I throw them away after every job. The bags are a little high priced but honestly with the thickness and quality the offer they are worth it. They keep the inside of the vacuum very clean. If they let anything past I would know, the smell would be pretty bad. With a 5 AH battery the vacuum lasted for a 40 door apartment complex using it in most of the apartments. The entire time it never failed to get everything. The shoulder strap made all the difference in the world too. I was able to carry it the entire time and it kept it tight to me so it wasn't hitting everything. None of the tools fell off either. I know that sounds dumb but it gets frustrating to have stuff fall off and I have to grab them. I need the different tools with me so I have to have them. Everything is tight so if you are snatching up bugs, cleaning cars, or sucking up wood chips the entire vacuum can handle it. I am very pleased with it. I always keep an extra box of bags on hand and I haven't really got anything in the hepa filter so I haven't had to worry about changing it or even cleaning it, I included pictures of before I took it for a test drive just because the after pictures are pretty gross. It is nice to get a well made tool that doesn't break the bank. I am going to buy everything Flex from now on!

Great suction power! Built to last!

Horrible suction, only vac like this that uses bags. None of other brands do

Great product. Easy to get up and working. Fantastic suction, light to carry, easy to use, and good value for the money since FLEX has a unique lifetime warranty when you register their tools.

Just what I wanted except I was surprised it did not come with a extension.

No, really, it sucks really well! I’ve used it a lot lately and so far I like it. My only complaint is that when you hook it to the flex sander, it ends up being extremely awkward. Maybe I’m missing something. Anyway, that’s my only gripe, yet.

It has very good suction and works great. My first not complaint is the battery dies fast but I bought the 3.5 stacked battery. I’m going to venture out there and say this needs at least a 5AMP battery. 10 would probably be best if you want long run time. But I am guessing cuz this is first and only flex tool I’ve owned
