The video is a review of the DeWalt Stealth Sonic Shop Vacuum, a 12-gallon vacuum designed for quiet operation. The reviewer provides a detailed walkthrough of the vacuum's features and specifications, demonstrating its performance in various tasks, including picking up dust and wood chips, and its water lift capacity. The vacuum's noise level is measured using a sound level meter, revealing that it operates at approximately 67-68 decibels, far below the typical 83-85 decibels for a shop vacuum.
The video also highlights the vacuum's wet capacity, which was found to be around 9 gallons, and its water lift, which was measured using a manometer and recorded at 76-80 inches. The reviewer notes that the vacuum can pick up liquids quickly, but it may not fully utilize its rated 12-gallon capacity due to limitations in suction and potential tripping mechanisms.
The vacuum is praised for its quiet operation, efficiency in picking up dust and wood chips, and its demonstrated water lift. It is also noted that the vacuum's filter can become clogged quickly, potentially shortening its lifespan. However, the use of a dust bag and a HEPA filter can prolong the life of the filter and keep the canister clean.
The video concludes with pricing information for the vacuum, which is available at Lowe's for $139 with a three-year warranty. The video ends with a call to action for viewers to like, subscribe, and provide feedback on the video.
