Hang up vacuums? You like?

I don't do any woodworking but figure this is as good
of place to ask as any

I'm in need of a modest size shop vac for general home
use

I see where they make some that hang on the wall.

any opinions on these good or bad?

It's the Heppa filter for these vacs. They work great. I've sanded
drywall and no dust gets through the filter and I've also ahd the
canister completely full of saw dust and dust/dirt from the floor od my
shop and it keeps on sucking. It seems like the filter never clogs up.

here is my latest project.

Thank you for bring this to our attention.
After checking this out I found out that my Daughter was trying to help
by telling wood workers and others about our products for dust
collection. Well anyway she has promised not to do it any more she is
in the senior class. I also noticed that nobody said anything about the
comments that I gave about radiant floor heat for the basement or about
240 volt power for this guys son-in-laws house.
Well anyway after this is posted I am dropping out of groups.
Thanks again And I am very sorry that this has happened.
Ben

Wow! If he has something to do with the product and this is his idea of a
marketing plan he is a total POS.

"ben" has been shilling his stuff in a couple of newsgroups, almost
verbatim. "ben" took the opportunity to use the post from "me" to
slip in a legit sounding plug for his crap. Frank may have grabbed
your name because you started this subject. I checked some of the
posts made by "ben" before throwing his name out to the wolves. I
think "me" has been cleared on this one, Karson clipped a little too
much or not enough before the start of a reply. The quote you are
referring to as not being yours is the start of Karson's reply.

This is not a shopvac, but we bought a Miele vacuum with Hepa filter.
We were told if we ever get the smart idea of sucking up drywall dust with this
machine we'll be shit out of luck trying to claim on warranty. That was the one
and only thing, but they made a point of it.

I have a Hoover GUV and love it. It is quiet, powerful, and the filter is
easy to clean.
Had a shop-vac hanger, but it was not nearly so good; I exiled it to the
garage.

No doubt the GUV is heavier. It is made of steel and has a larger motor.
But with a 20' hose, moving it around isn't necessary.

Is the GUV light enough to take off the wall hook and
walk around with while vacuuming?

That's my concern with the heavy duty GUV

Whereas the cheaper, plastic ShopVacs would be light
enough. No?
