I have to say I’m really liking the Dewalt 20v DCV581H Vacuum

I had the Ryobi canister wet dry vacuum I can’t really complain about it too much really the battery life and suction was great. The down side was no corded option the attachments didn’t store on the vacuum and the filter was just a cheesy filter paper help on with a rubber band. The Ryobi was a work horse though. I will say the Dewalt is defiantly moving into a luxury car it just feels better and is just a way better design! It’s my second yellow tool I have bought recently. I got an awesome deal on this and the nailer recently so it made the choice obvious. I don’t know If the vacuum will stay with me long term if Milwaukee puts out some crazy Fuel vac, but as it stands I think its one of the best cordless vacuums on the market personally.

Yellow is a slippery slope Jason 😉

I agree Jason really nice unit I like how everything stores and doesn’t get in the way or fall off easy the power is pretty nice and having the choice to either use the battery and cord is really nice!

No I do you just usually only hear stories about how good red is, nice to hear some pro yellow stories

My mistake. Ofcourse you do [emoji106]

We may be outnumbered by team red, but there’s lots of positive comments about yellow.

At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter. They all get the job done!

I got the non-corded version and I love it. It works well and is very good for small jobs. Used it to clean out the car the other day.

The non-corded version is now $79 at Home Depot as the new everyday price.

It have been mine if they ever had it as a bare tool give away item, or a better price. I cant say that $99 bucks is bad, but I like a good sale!! I got the Dewalt  $85 on an Amazon Lightning deal. Plus I know if I bought the Milwaukee they would release a new one just as mine was out of the return window 🙂

Jason, do you notice any difference in suction when it is running on battery? Or is it the same as when you have it plugged into and outlet??

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Is it wrong that my Festool Midi looks like R2D2?

I have personally only ran it with a battery pack so far, so I can’t really say either way.

Might want to lay off the wood glue Chris 🙂

I have a question about using the corded version of this, how do y’all think it would work hooked up to the dws580 for dust extraction? Would it be a waste of money or would it be vastly better than just using the bag. I don’t really have the cash to buy the big brother dewalt dwv012.

i have the milwaukee and its great, i want the makita x2 tho, it looks bostin.

mr.fletcherMember since Jan 2016

I too have this item and I absolutely love it! My boss has his Milwaukee and I have my Dewalt and Id have to say they both perform close to the same. Mine however has a cord and I do not think his does.
