Wet/Dry Vacuums

Wet Dry Vacuums

Don’t let a simple thing like dirt get in the way of your day. Clean it up with the right wet/dry vacuum. Loved by millions across the world, vacuum cleaners are suitable for tackling everything from wet spills to debris. Sam’s Club® offers a wide selection of vacuum cleaners suitable for a variety of tasks.

How Do I Choose the Right Vacuum Cleaner?

Start by analyzing your cleaning needs. The right vacuum cleaner should complement the type of cleaning you’ll be doing. For instance, pick a portable or vacuum cordless cleaner if you’re going to be doing a lot of moving around, while an industrial vacuum cleaner is better suited to heavy duty clean-up jobs. It’s also important to consider the size and capacity of the cleaner as well as the features that come with it.

What are the Different Types of Wet and Dry Cleaners?

Most of the vacuum cleaners on Sam’s Club can be grouped into four major categories based on their size: mini-sized, small, medium and large. Mini-sized and small vacuum cleaners typically hold between two and six gallons with 1 to 5HP. They’re suitable for light cleaning tasks. Medium vacuum cleaners range from 7 to 14 gallons with 5 to 6 HP. They offer stronger suction, making them a good pick for tackling larger debris and dirt around the house, workshop or garage. Large vacuum cleaners boast a minimum of 6HP and a capacity of more than 14 gallons. They’re the best choice for factory cleaning needs or professional jobs. Large vacuum cleaners may come on carts or feature wheels for easier movement.

Are Vacuum Cleaners Safe for Hardwood Floors?

Brooms are largely effective, but nothing gets rid of dirt better than a vacuum cleaner. The best vacuum cleaners are able to suck up fine debris and dust from the cracks in wood—cracks that a broom or mop would be unable to reach. The best options for hardwood floors are backpack or canister vacuum cleaners. You’ll get even better results if you choose models that come with good filters.

Popular Wet and Dry Vacuum Features

Wet/Dry vacs come with different features that help enhance your cleaning experience. For instance, some vacuum cleaners included a blower port and detachable blower, which comes in handy if you’re dealing with hard-to-reach areas or have a lot of leaves to clean. You’ll also find vacuums with built-in or on-board storage, which allow for easy organization—especially if you’re short of space.

Vacuum cleaners may also feature quiet motors or convenient vacuum accessories like advanced HEPA filters, capable of trapping even pollens and dust mites, so your home is a lot cleaner. You’ll also find air vacuums that come with antimicrobial treatments to prevent the growth of bacteria and steam vacuums capable of cleaning a wide variety of surfaces.

In the end, the best vacuum cleaner is one that offers a rich balance between functionality and price. Whether you’re looking for a handheld cleaner to add to your housekeeping supplies or an industrial unit for janitorial supplies, Sam’s Club has you covered.
