I need a compact wet and dry vacuum cleaner.

I need a compact wet and dry vacuum cleaner. Now it doesn’t have to be really small but I just don’t want the ones that look like they’re cousins of R2D2. I’ve seen a handheld AEG AG6106WD at under £60 and it’s rated pretty high but I don’t think it’s big enough to handle the work I need to do around the house. I tried looking but nothing interests me, really.

A 6-galllon capacity should work for me, I guess. I just clean after 2 kids – 2 and 4 and they mess up the house a lot. I need my vacuum to be wet and dry because you know kids. So do you have any suggestions? My budget should be somewhere around the £60 to £80 range. Thanks!

Re: I need a compact wet and dry vacuum cleaner.

this post flags up a few problems for me

1 a wet and dry cleaner cannot do both at the same time. if you set it up dry the unit uses filters or bags to catch the dust. if you set it up wet you remove the filters as the water stops the dust and the filters would get wet and water would get into the motor

2 from reading your post it seem you want it to handle wet just in case you children spill something so no that wont work

also you state 6 gallons, that’s a lot so it would be a big unit
