Shop Vac 4.5 HP Models Review

The Shop Vac 4.5 HP Models review is a review of the top six rated products by the owners of the vacuums. These vacuums have horsepower that is on the borderline between medium and heavy use. This means that over an extended period of time, the motor may burn out with continued and constant heavy use.

The vacuum is perfect for removing debris from the yard, sidewalk and driveway. Also, with the extension wands, you can clean out gutters too.

The models in this review have been rated between good and very good by their owners.
