Looking for a non-bulky wet/dry vacuum for interiors, specifically for pulling out fluid when steaming/folexing.

I came up with:
Fein Turbo (98" lift and 151 CFM @ 67 dBA)
Powr-Flite PF51 (100" lift and 114 CFM @ jet roar)
IPC Eagle EVO (103" lift and 120 CFM @ 57dBa)

Fein is $300, Powr-Flite is $125, IPC is $270


Thoughts? Any others?
 
I have one of these and lie it for the size and the fact that it is wet or dry.

Any particular reason for not considering RIGID?

RIDGID - Wet/Dry Vacuums - Vacuum Cleaners & Floor Care - The Home Depot

Lifetime warranty and Home Depot generally doesn't ask any questions when doing a return.
 
What size Rigid vac did you have? I have a bunch of their 6hp W/D vacs and absolutely love them both at home and at the shop. They also make a muffler that quiets them down a touch. I have noticed that their car nozzle isn't designed all that great. I usually grind down the spiky edges so they move across the surface smoother.
 
I had something about this size. I did not like the hose or hand tool. And when I used the wants to pick up a small flood, they needed to be duct taped together.

Perhaps your model is newer or better built.

If memory serves me right, I think my tank was white and top (motor) area orange plastic.

Mine also came with a crevice tool not pictured.

The IPC eagle is a great tool. It has a cleanable filter, it's quiet and powerful. I've had mine for about three years now and it's a good today is it was the first time I plugged it in.

Sweet-- I couldn't find any info on it elsewhere. Have any other wet/dry vacs that you can compare it to?
