      Can you elaborate? What was wrong with it, and what would you look for in another wet/dry vac?

      • +1

        I can't tell you if this is better or worse than other wet dry vacuums. All I can say is that it's just easier to sweep and pick up things. The suction is poor and the attachments are flimsy.

        It's probably most useful for sucking up liquids. But I wouldn't spend $50 just to do that.

        • I've got this

          Don't buy it with power pass. It's pretty decent.

          But expect to warranty it.

          Mine last about a year with heavy use in my garage.

        • Hit the filter bag with an air compressor.

          Last weekend I was asking myself "why did I think this was pretty good when I first purchased it, it's not".

          Cleaned the filter bag with air compressor and I'm back to being impressed (price vs performance), again.

          Short cable and suction is poor.
          I do not recommend anyone.
          Ryobi is a bit better.

    • Surprised to hear that this Ozito is bad, as I assumed this would be similar-ish to the excellent $120 Ryobi Wet/Dry vac
      https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-20l-stainless-steel-wet-dr…

      My Ryobi has gone through demos, renovations, and attached to table saws etc and never skipped a beat.

    • I have the battery version and it's great. Chews batteries, but we all have a few by now.

    • Neither does this guy.

  • I had one a while ago, stopped working after 2 uses.

    • +2

      Save it for the bedroom, buddy

      • It's a cylinder

  • +11

    Bought this one to be a toss out after a heavy use project sucking up plaster dust and sawdust like 2 years ago, still have it and been using it every day basically to dust and clean up everywhere. My only annoyances are is its really loud, and doesn't seem to use a nozzle size that matches anything easily

      I have the 10 litre and it is pretty much the same.. Which as I recall is usually $59. It’s easier to find the 20 litre bags, or that may have fixed itself.
      It is built for a price and tbh more than worth the money, and you most certainly do not want to use the Miele for the stuff I use it for. Nor would I use this to clean the house.
      Really good for sucking up okumes of light industrial dust (eg after removing tiles from concrete, but you definitely should only use it with NC headphones. I had some old nozzles from dead vacuums that give me a variety of options.
      My only real complaint is you tip it over it breaks the lid seal and you have to lift the lid off and put it on again to be sweet.

    I have one and its too fiddly to use. I had to keep re-adjusting it every 5 minutes.

    You have to say yourself "do I need to vaccuum up water". If the answer is NO then get a normal vacuum.

    I now have a Makita DCL286FZB vacuum that suck in 25 litres air/second and runs on 18V.

  • I had this also and not very good

  • +1

    Quite possibly the worst product I have used.

  • Would this be OK for artificial lawn? Place we purchase has a fair bit of leaves an fake lawn. Not a fan of the fake lawn but would like to keep it clean while deciding and saving for some new landscaping.

  • +1

    Works well for me

  • +3

    As found on every second hard rubbish pile in the country

    Tbh though I use one daily, it keeps tipping over instead of wheeling, and I've lost the handle, and the floor head it comes with is crap, and I can't seem to find a new filter bag for sale in Bunnings.. but it keeps working and I don't really want to use my Dyson cleaning up plaster and can hook this straight up to the sander and mitre saw

  • Note that this does not take ozito batteries :D

    And it kind looks like those evil robot from Doctor Who

    Does this suck or does it suck?

    • +1

      Yes

  • Damn reading all the comments here, this product seems like a no go. What vacuums do people recommend? Looking to use for small house renovations stuff but also car vacuuming as well.

  • +2

    Have only had this for a few months but love using it especially in the garage, much stronger than spot cleaners.

  • +4

    Why the hate for this machine? It'll take any abuse you throw at it and keep going for more.

    Mine is 18monthe old - hasn't missed a beat. Great to clean out a sand filter for a pool, works well to vacuum up artificial grass patch of small, fine leaves and plenty of construction dust/debris from renos.

    Yeah it's loud AF, but meh. It's not my everyday vac, but it does a damn good job imho.

  • +1

    I've got the 10l version of this and it was wonderful for picking up plaster dust and muck during my kitchen reno two years ago… Was using it nearly every day especially during the demo stage.

    Still sits in the shed and gets occasional use for the car and other outdoor messes.

  • +2

    I can't believe all negative the comments, i love my Ozito Wet and Dry Vacuum. We've been renovating and i use it all the time, well worth the $

  • Anyone got suggestions for cheap vacuum bags for this?

  • How's this for indoor use?

    Like on carpet

    • This sort usually have a crappy head which wont slide nice over the carpet. And the wheels are intended for a concrete floor so will drag and tip over on carpet.
      And they usually dont have good filters, so you get some dust in the air.

      They are workshop vacs for abusing with plaster dust and sucking up spills.

  • I have used this for years. If you keep the filter clean it works fine. I further use a dust separator which helps filter out damaging particles further. It is cumbersome with the separator though.

  • This thing saved us when the Mrs flooded the hallway by mistake. The Bissell was taking forever to suck the water out and wasn't strong enough. Used a 3d printed adapter to connect our Bissell head to this and it was a breeze. Litres of water soaked through got out.

    • So could you use this as a carpet shampooer?

      • +1

        Yea basically. If you spray your own soapy massage water onto the carpet then use this to suck it out

        Basically the only difference is that the carped cleaners have clear handles and containers so you can see the water going in and out.

        • +2

          I just bought a clear nozzle for $5 and the adapter for $3 from aliexpress

    • Mrs flooded the hallway by mistake.

      Where was she planning to flood? ;)

  • I kinda want a backpack vacuum or a vacuum like in this post, is there a recommendation? I've been told that its generally better to get commercial ones for easier repair, spare parts, etc but not sure about where and how to get one, and this ozito one doesn't seem to be exactly well recommended from the looks of it
