    Review: Metro Commercial Series Full Size Vac N' Blo 4.0 HP Vacuum

    Review: Metro Commercial Series Full Size Vac N' Blo 4.0 HP Vacuum

    The Metro Commercial Series Full Size Vac N' Blo 4.0 HP Vacuum is a powerful lightweight vacuum from one of the most innovative vacuum companies in the United States. After several weeks of use tackling all types of dirt from sand to pet hair I've learned why all vacuums are not created equal. From the various attachments and adapters to its superior suction and design it's hard to find a more versatile detailing tool.



    Features:

    • Quiet
    • Powerful suction
    • 30ft High quality commercial grade hose
    • Easy to operate and maneuver
    • Large selection of attachments
    • Easy to empty and switch between vac and Blo functions.


    The first thing I noticed about the Vac N' Blo right out of the box is how light and high quality the vacuum itself and its accessories are. It has a solid feel and design, along with a sturdy stainless steal power switch. After flipping the switch and firing the Vac N' Blo up I was surprised at how quiet it was, much quieter than any shop vac I've ever used but was not as quiet as a higher priced European vacuum I used in my home. Perfect for being used outside and in the garage without being obnoxious.

    The 30ft hose and tons of accessories and attachments really help to set this vacuum apart from the rest. Having various attachments and the ability to suck and blow has really sped up my time vacuuming and really improved overall efficiency. The blow feature can also be used for touch-less drying after washing. One of my favorite features is the ability to mount the Vac N' Blo to the wall and due to its compact and aesthetically pleasing design it looks great while saving floor space.

    If you're looking to upgrade or just start out with an excellent vacuum the Metro Commercial Series Full Size Vac N' Blo 4.0 HP Vacuum won't steer you wrong.



    Powerful suction.



    Easily pulls the fibers up and the dirt out.



    Maybe too much suction?



    Many different attachments.



    Easily vacuum and clean up tight spaces.





    Soft brush for vacuuming scratch sensitive surfaces like leather.





    Make sure to check all the attachments and sand down any rough edges prior to using the vacuum.



    Looks great hanging on the shop wall.

    Great review.

    Did you really have to sand down attachments? That's a little worrisome.

    Yup. I sand down EVERY attachment regardless of manufacturer. It's better to be safe than sorry. The laser cut pieces have some very sharp edges.

    I was seriously thinking about getting one. From the info i gathered from here was it was a great vacuum but havent herd much on the blowing aspect of it. What is your opinion on it? Can u blow dry a car as good as a leaf blower?

    I have one and yes. It works as good or better than a 160 mph leaf blower.
