This DeWalt 8 gallon wet dry vacuum stands out for being much quieter than a typical shop vac while still handling garage and dust collection work well. The stainless steel build and metal base add appeal, and it can be a solid fit for car cleaning or a bucket and cyclone setup. The main drawbacks are the 4 HP suction, which feels light for tougher wet or dry debris, and the hose and attachments, which can be stiff, awkward, and lacking onboard tool storage. It looks best suited to lighter, quieter shop use rather than heavy construction cleanup.

  • Car detailers working indoors, because the quieter motor is easier to live with than a standard shop vac while still handling cleanup tasks.

  • Shoppers replacing a louder shop vac for general garage cleanup, because it is noticeably quieter than typical wet-dry vacs.

  • Garage woodworkers using a cyclone separator, because it is quiet enough for evening work and can serve as a primary dust-collection vacuum.

  • Users who want a compact wet-dry vac for cars and light debris, because the lower noise comes with some power tradeoff that suits lighter use.

  • Shoppers who rely on onboard tool storage, because this vacuum has no built-in storage and only a mesh bag.

  • Contractors needing maximum suction for drywall debris or heavy shop use, because the 4 HP motor underperforms compared with larger vacs.

  • People who need a hose and attachments that feel flexible and secure, because the hose can be stiff, the clip weak, and the crevice tool can block full suction.

  • Users expecting durable hose hardware, because the hose strap can break quickly and the attachment point may fail within a year.

How is this for dust collection via a shop vac? I know it's not a true "dust collector". I'm looking for a dedicated but adaptable/slightly portable shop vac for dust collection.
I'm an amateur woodworker working from my garage with a few power tools. I got the 5 gallon version of this vacuum to use as my primary "dust collection" system and it has been simply amazing. It is so much quieter than the 12-gal Rigid vacuum I replaced. I don't need to wear ear protection when using it and I also don't have to worry about waking up the family if I want to work in the garage later in the evenings. I got the 5 gallon version because I use it with a bucket+cyclone so I didn't have a need for a larger capacity. It definitely does the job!

You've described my exact plan. What bucket/cyclone setup so you use, if you don't mind my asking?

I have the 10 Gallon 6 HP DeWALT version of this vac, sold by Home Depot, and like it a lot. I wanted a second vac for my garage and saw this vac at Costco. While I wasn't crazy about stepping down to an 8 gallon version, that was the least of my disappointment. The real problem is that its 4 HP suction is not sufficient. Initially I thought perhaps its small size justified the low HP rating, but nope. It looks like its big brother, but underperforms as a shop vac for wet or dry use. After 2 weeks of using it for various tasks, I had enough and ended up returning it.

It's powerful and somewhat quieter than a regular shop-vac, but I had to return it. The hose is very stiff, and doesn't rotate well, along with being an odd size and have a weird/weak attachment clip. There is no onboard tool storage, just a mesh bag you have to figure out what to do with, and the extension tubes don't fit inside of. The crevice tool has a stupid design so you cannot get full suction while using it. The nail in the coffin for me was the hose storage rubber strap broke on the second use.
RE: Rotation issues—when the 12 gal. Stealthsonic went on sale a few weeks back another commenter posted an Etsy store called SuctionEqualsSafety that sells shop-vac attachments & tool adapters. I picked up one of the rotating adapters (around ~$15) & it made using the vac about 100% easier. These have a rotating cuff on the vacuum end of the hose but the attachment end doesn't rotate at all. Very annoying.

PROTIP — For anyone who actually gets one of the adapters, be aware the stock cuff is reverse threaded and they also glue it a bit. After cranking on it for a bit (first the wrong way lol then the "right" way) I wound up taking a long screwdriver & slowly working it between the cuff & hose until I got it out the other side (exiting inside the cuff). Then I held both sides of the screwdriver & worked it around the cuff, i.e., parallel to the hose, like a prybar to loosen the glue.

If you don't mind losing a couple inches you can also just cut the damn hose to avoid the headache but... who can afford to lose a couple inches off their hose?? ∠( ᐛ」 ∠)_

I'm using the Dust Deputy 2.5 and it works well, but I kind of hate it. It's just too tall compared to all the other bucket-top ones out there and the "anti-static" claim is total bs. One annoying thing about it is how easy it is to tip over if you move the hose just a little. I recently built a cart for my table saw with a compartment for a bucket and a shorter dust cyclone and the DD 2.5 doesn't come close to fitting.

Thanks for that! You just convinced me to buy something with a metal base. Considering this DeWalt for $100 instead of a makeshift option with a 5 gallon bucket
