From that point forward, I’ve never believed any marketing claim until it was confirmed by project farm. 100% honest, unbiased, and above industry standard testing.

      I'm on my second Milwaukee vac. I like the square shape as it stores easily in my van. It's even tough enough to serve as an occasional step stool to reach a bit higher though I wouldn't recommend doing so often or if you're a 'fuller figured gentleman'. However I find the suction is barely adequate. I cannot run a filter or it simply doesn't have enough lift to pull much stuff up. I work on yachts, so the compact size is nice for maneuvering around delicate woodwork and the like and it's not so heavy that it's unwieldy when full of water, but I sure do wish it performed closer to a full size corded vac. I think Milwaukee has the tech to do it based on their bigger M18 batteries, but this hasn't been a priority. I also wasn't surprised to see Ridgid do well given their track record with corded vacs.

You twist the hose off and plug the side that usually takes the attachments into the blower port (referred to as the exhaust in this video). I frequently use the blower option for helping dry the mats in my truck after washing them and getting the water out of the crevices after a car wash.

Plus, I have started to get some 40V yard tools to supplement my gas powered tools. My point isn't about all of my tools, just that I am, in a way, stuck with a certain line that I have come to really like and appreciate. However, that doesn't stop me from being completely enthralled with these tests. I guess I am rooting for Ryobi but it is just generally cool to see the level of effort put into the test... the prep work, attention to detail and total scope is always top notch.

    Very much appears that the Bosch, Dewalt, and Makita sacrificed some air speed and suction for a more restrictive air filter. Does a better job filtering, but slows them down.

    One thing of note: when plugging the end of the vacuum, it doesn't actually increase the load on the motor it decreases! Counter intuitive for sure but you notice the RPM actually increases when the end is plugged, how is this possible? I thought the same thing. Turns out that when no air can enter, none can really leave either, so the vacuum gets a nice happy air pocket that begins to rotate with the motor and cause less drag thus the RPM increase, really irrelevant factoid for the experiment due to the fact that all vacuums were treated equally so the results are still good, but just had to throw that out there because when I learned that I was a bit surprised.

      We got a shark cordless from my gf's parents for Christmas and I definitely love being able to just grab and go for little things and I can vacuum the whole house on a charge... But I don't think it's quite as strong as a corded vacuum in sucking power... which makes sense

      I purchased the Ridgid a few months ago and it's got a dustpan feature. I don't know if this version does or not but it's actually very helpful. Just leave the hose attached to the vacuum it plugs in on the opposite end and there's a port at the bottom and you can sweep up debris right to the bottom of the vacuum, it's very handy

    I've had the Ryobi for a few months now and use it as a dedicated "inside the house" Shopvac for dusting and doing baseboards and such. For what it cost, I'm not at all displeased with it. One thing I will say is that if you're planning on using one of these the way I do (walking around with it the entire time, hence why cordless is awesome), give plenty of consideration to the weight of the one you select. I was surprised to see the Ryobi is on the lighter end of the options because it doesn't feel like it after about 15 minutes. I wish it came with, and I may add, some sort of sling mounts so you can put a shoulder strap on it. I have a regular corded 2 gallon shopvac and I swear the cordless "feels" like weighs about twice as much. Never even noticed the weight of the corded one until I bought the cordless.
    Also... Gotta love the PF sand table getting progressively messier with each passing test. ;)

    • @somejoe7777
      @somejoe7777 3 года назад +8

      It's true, you can't remove all of the sand during the shaking, but the test is still valid because all of the carpet is the same, and he spent the same amount of time shaking each carpet to remove the sand. So you can assume that of the sand that's left in each carpet after vacuuming, the shaking results in a portion of the sand that's shaken out and a portion that's retained in the carpet, and this ratio is equal for all tested vacuums. Thus, the measured portion of sand is still representative of how much the vacuum left behind and can still be used to rate the vacuums against each other.
      A better way to conduct this test, however, would be to weigh the sand applied to the carpet, make sure each vacuum is empty before starting the test, vacuum for 1 minute, then empty the contents of the vacuum's dirt container and weigh it. Subtraction will then tell you exactly how much sand is left in the carpet.

    • @cranbers
      @cranbers 3 года назад

      I agree also with the removal test for sand from the rubber matt with the gaps maybe use the same end attachment.. Since of course the huge open ones are going to be less effective then the small attachment, suction would be more concentrated.. but it wouldnt test the vacuum and would rely more on attachment type ( maybe its relevant since it came with that ?) I dont know. ( 3 inch wide one vs a 5 inch?) Also the water test, some cleaned out the water jar, others had inch or two water left before he stopped it, maybe test one at a time and empty jar so no water was left.
