    Definitely recommend it. That's the vacuum I use. Thing is a beast. It's also pretty quiet, alot quieter than most smaller vacs. Think about getting the car detailing kit that Rigid sells as those 2 little triangle looking brush attachments [mainly the 1 for carpet & upholstery] is worth it's weight in gold. The crevice tool is grade A as well. IMO you're going to need those 2 attachments at least to get the best results/experience out of it.

    Holy cow I was looking at reviews on the 4-gal Ridgid I've been eyeing up for a while, and one guy measured it at 106 dB, 105 with the muffler

    I have that rigid you posted. It is awesome but I wish I had gotten the smaller one. It takes up too much space

    Does anyone have the Metro Vac? I'm looking to upgrade as well and kind of want that to wall mount next to my master blaster.
