My big reason for getting 12gal ($119 as of posting) vs 9gal, besides the obvious capacity:
20ft cord vs 10ft cord
2 1/2" hose vs 1 7/8" (I already have a bunch of 2 1/2" accessories)
slightly more "horsepower"
105 CFM vs 90 CFM
I keep this in my garage and it was actually slightly smaller footprint than my old shop-vac, so I didn't have the space issue...
16gal didn't seem to have as many advantages, quite a bit more $ ($199 vs $120 for 12 & $99 for 9), but does have actual wheels instead of casters and would be much better if moving large-ish distances like a potential jobsite.
6gal actually looks to be pretty decent if needing something smaller as well. Not on sale, but $79. 4HP stated (same 8amp rating as 9gal), but using 1 7/8" hose & 10ft cord like 9gal, and 85CFM claimed.

What's more important to you, the noise level or performance level?

That 14 gallon is one short little fatty. I bought the 12 at the same price because of the footprint. I returned it and bought this DeWalt because of decibel difference. No complaints
My only complaint is the accessory hose/tube pouch and not molded into the casters like other brands.
It would be nice if the accessories stored on the feet. At least it's a decent storage bag because the one that comes with the stainless steel model is a net and it's a pile of garbage.
I bought it for $89 not too long ago and it'd been that price for a while. It's more quiet than my household vaccum, and it takes up good space, not much smaller than 12gal. The suction is great, only thing that would get all the cat litter out of my thick carpet. Also was able to use it to unclog bathtub drain. Not to mention, the long flexible hose and attachments are great for sucking bugs in ceiling
So wife-approved, got it.
Which attachment do you use for the litter?

The hose is a little annoying but it does move freely at the end so if you hold it there you can avoid the hose getting too twisted.
