Shop-Vac 5801611 Wet Dry Vac with SVX2 Motor, 16 Gallon, 150 CFM, 2-1/2 in x 8 ft Lock-On Hose

Meet the Shop-Vac 5801611, a 16-gallon wet/dry vacuum built to handle everyday messes with steady power. Powered by SVX2 Motor Technology, this model delivers robust suction and longer motor life, making it a reliable partner in busy spaces like garages, workshops, and basements. The combination of capacity and power gives you a flexible tool for mixed messes, big and small, without being overwhelming.

Versatility starts with a 3-in-1 design. Use it for wet spills, dry debris, or take advantage of the rear blower port to shift dust and debris from hard-to-reach corners. The 2-1/2 inch intake diameter paired with an 8-foot lock-on hose provides extended reach, so you can clean without constant repositioning.

Smart design that fits real-world use

• 3-in-1 functionality: wet cleanup, dry debris, and controlled airflow via the rear blower.
• Easy drain & secure lid: built-in tank drain lets you empty liquids without lifting the canister; dual latching keeps the lid closed during use.
• Mobility and storage: ergonomic top and side handles, smooth-rolling casters, and on-board cord/accessory storage simplify setup and transport.

What’s inside the box is ready to handle a range of tasks. The package includes a 7-foot Lock-On hose, two extension wands, a 12-inch wet/dry floor nozzle, a gulper tool, a crevice tool, a cartridge filter, a foam sleeve, and a dry filter bag. This assortment supports cleaning tasks across different messes right away, whether you’re tidying a workshop, cleaning up a spill, or refreshing a vehicle interior.

Real-life use cases illustrate how the Shop-Vac 5801611 can help you maintain a tidy space: quick spill pickup after a project, thorough dust collection in a workshop, or a post-wash rinse of car floors after a DIY job. The SVX2 motor aims to deliver consistent performance, while the 16-gallon tank provides a meaningful capacity for ongoing tasks. Individual results depend on variables like mess type and upkeep, but the overall setup offers a balance of power, capacity, and flexibility for mixed cleanup scenarios.

• Liquid spills stay contained in a sizable tank for straightforward disposal.
• Strong suction supports clean recovery of dry debris such as dust, dirt, and grit.
• The rear blower helps clear debris from tight or cluttered areas.
