Adequate for the price
After surveying them all I chose the Shop Vac Ultra over the runner up Craftsman only because of brand loyalty. i deferred from buying a similar model at a big box store because the price including delivery here was less and this model didn't have a pump sitting in the bottom of the cannister. I didn't need that.
It's quiet and the motor has a smooth all-is-well sound to it. I don't need the ear muffs in a closed shop although out of habit I'll probably wear them anyway. Lock on hose is a definite plus for pulling the unit tag-a-long style. Plenty of 2 1/2" hose. Doesn't come with a smaller 1 1/4" hose which is handy for attaching to tools. Low profile fits under many benches etc.. but tool caddy sticks out obtrusively...small annoyance. Suction on dry pick up is fine with sawdust and general pickup. Has a deflector positioned inside the canister to keep sucked up projectiles from going crazy in there and destroying the filter. My last 20 gal. shop Vac lasted...

Excellent vac, only problem is attachment storage
I bought mine from Westlake Ace hardware about 3-4 yrs ago, I had originally bought a smaller vac but it didn't have the suction power I wanted from a shopvac, so I returned it and paid the difference for the most powerful shop vac they had in stock, the 6.5 hp 18 gallon model. I am very impressed with the power mine has, plus it's made here in the USA which is a huge selling point for me, I would be willing to bet Shop Vac is the only brand made here. It's also surprisingly quiet, not much louder than a standard vacuum you use for your floors. My only complaint is the tool storage deal, it comes with several attachments/tools and they don't fit very well onboard, so you'll have to pay attention so you don't lose any of them. If I had to buy another, I wouldn't hesitate buying this same model again.
My own little Star Wars R2D2
I can't remember how many years ago I bought the 18 gal. 6.5 HP machine but it is all black and I paid less than $80 for it at the big orange store if that narrows it down.
It is the hardest working tool in my workshop/garage. I store it under my work bench and it is the last thing I use before I turn off the light. I vacuum whatever tool(s) I used and then clean up the floor around them. It then rolls back under my bench like R2D2.
I have a 2HP VERY LOUD dust collector that attach to my bigger machines like the cabinet saw and band saw but I still need some sort of above the table clean up. I hook the ShopVac directly to my routing table, sander or biscuit jointer. It should come with a 1 1/4" attachment but you can buy them at the same place where you get the disposable bags.
I abuse this thing all the time! I have put off emptying it so many times that when I do open the lid it pops up four inches because the dust and debris is compressed in the...
