Vacmaster VWM510 . . .
Original Message   Feb 3, 2011 10:24 am

Hi,

Just got a press release this morning regarding the new Vacmaster VWM510, a wall-mounted wet-and-dry vacuum, that is claimed to be moving from the garage and shop into the household proper.  And, first look, I like the idea.  This machine is said to offer high suction, quiet operation and has a 21-foot hose with remote controlled on and off.  Despite its large five-gallon capacity, it is claimed that the unit can fit inside sink cabinets or other out of the way places inside the home.  This might prove a good deal for those living in small apartments or homes

It can also be used as a blower.  For me a vacuum with a blower port serves a hundred times better -- and is a hundred times less expensive -- than "canned air" for cleaning out computers and related electronic equipment.

This morning I contacted the company (866-384-8432) to ask some questions.  The VWM510 can also be fitted with bags and the company also offers the option of a 10 or 11-foot hose extension.  Please note that the unit has standard-size attachment options.  However, I did ask if easy attachment of an electric power nozzle was possible and was told  no by the person I spoke with.  It would also seem that the company has no such thing in mind for future.  Yet, the person I spoke with actually has one at home -- she gets hers free since she works for tthe company -- and says it works wonderfully as a straight suction vacuum due to its high suction.

Liking things the simpler the better as time passes, I like the idea of the VWM510 and think it may differ from similar spins on the idea.  I also assume that emissions issues may be less as it is a vacuum you don't need to have folllow your trail through your place.  However, filtration options all the way from HEPA and disposable bags down to foam are also offered.

Good morming,

Though I am still looking for weight specs these vacs, I think it doubtful that the Vacmaster or Kobalt are all that heavy.  As well. per the maker, the mount for either machine is designed to require only one wall stud and attaches with just a couple of screws.  Five gallons is not a staggering amount for just dry dirt collection of the usual type household dust and debris.  Were I to need to regularly do a high volume of wet pick-up I'd worry.  Nonetheless, the vacuums can be quite easily removed from their wall mounts to travel through house or apartment with you.

One of my missions this year will be trying to disseminate as much info about very affordable but worthwhile vacuums -- and ideas.  Normally, I'd feel spending extra cash on vacuums with a track record is rather like buying ahead, the investment gaining worth yearly due to a machine's continued good service and durability.  That kind of spending is no longer possible for lots and lots of people here in the U.S.  It's been reported that last month, only 36,000 jobs slots got filled across the nation.  Per the NY Times, the blame for that is being laid on the weather but I'd most humbly inquire, what happened in Vegas, Miami, and great big warm states like California?  Were they out shoveling snow like New Yorkers?

Even more curious is to me is the numbers Sebo, Miele, Ricccar/Simplicity and many of our very expensive door-to-door niche brands will achieve the end of the year with even less consumers able to afford them.

Anyway, both these machines can satisfy cleaning needs and, with the optional upgrades, emission requirements of even fussy folks at a very nice price.

Best,

Venson


Hi Venson:

The uemployment rate in Nevada rivals the handful of states with the highest in the nation.  While national unemployment is running 9 plus percent, Nevada and Las Vegas particularly is holding steady at 14-15 percent unemployed.  With that has come the one of the highest foreclosure rates for homes in the nations, one of the highest number of mortgage payments in arrears, and one of the highest bankruptcy rates among individuals and businesses.
