Very weak suction power

This is supposed to be a workshop vac and yet it has so little power it takes a long time to clean up. I measured the suction power with a vacuum gauge and compared it to a Henry and the Henry was 5 x more powerful with a much larger airflow. I expected a mains powered vac to be stronger but as a Henry is not the strongest I didn’t expect such a difference. Even cleaning the carpets in a car was slow. The unit is a nice compact size and looks well made it’s a pity the fan design is so poor.Read full review...

Great portability

As I already had batteries for my cordless tools its ok, but having battery cost on top would make for an expensive purchase, however this is great for collecting swarms of bee in conjunction with other necessary beekeeping boxes, also good for blowing remaining bees from honey boxes after removal from hives. Not what it was designed for I'm sure, but fits my requirements.Read full review...

Powerful and versatile.

I finally purchased this vac to work as a wet vac and to act as a dust extractor for my other 18v tools.

I use it far more than I imagined in only a few weeks. Emptying toilet Systens, emptying radiator drain trays, drilling clean up, masonry with SDS and metal at pillar drill. All around the workshop in fact.
Henry and my go to air vacuum haven't moved since Makita arrived. Same bat charge.
I ordered the wet filter as I want to keep the HEPA one for dust extraction.

The tool storage and retractable hose are just great.
Removal of the tank is fast.

When wet vacuuming the cut off valve works well before the tank is full, about half, so you can easy carry and empty with a dry floor and boots.

Extremely light, so easy to go to for those quick jobs. I haven't used the blow function as I have shop air, but I can think of uses on the road or at home.

I wish I had brought this last year at the lower price.

Good tool

Very useful hand tool, it does all I expected. No more tripping over power cables! I also use it on my chop saw and sander. Buy big batteries.

Makita battery vacuum cleaner.

Works well for small clear ups. Wish strap and wet filter came with it or were easier to get.

Best of 3

This is the best of 2 previous Makita cordless vac cleaners. If you have lots of 18v Makita tools(and batterys) then this is the vac to go for.Otherwise buy the Milwarkee version as it is much better
