Professional reviewers and editors acknowledge the DeWalt DXV06P’s solid build quality, mobility thanks to rubberized swivel casters, and the convenience of a built‑in blower port. However, they caution that the peak‑horsepower rating is a marketing metric and that the non‑standard hose size and missing drain limit its effectiveness for heavier wet‑type jobs, positioning it as a light‑duty, jobsite‑oriented vacuum rather than a full‑size industrial unit.
Everyday users generally praise the vacuum’s portability, easy maneuverability, and the versatility provided by the included hose and nozzle set. Recurring complaints focus on the need for adapters due to the unusual hose diameter and the inconvenience of having no built‑in drain for wet pickups, with some users also noting the short power‑cord length.
“Lightweight & portable... easy to carry”
“gets the job done”
Professional reviewers commend the VOM205P for its surprising power in a tiny package, emphasizing the 2 peak HP motor, wall‑mountable design and blower conversion as standout features. They note the unit excels at small‑scale wet/dry tasks and appreciates the organized accessory storage, while flagging noise level and limited tank capacity as the main trade‑offs.
Consumers generally love the vacuum’s portability, strong suction and the convenience of built‑in storage with a useful accessory set. Recurring themes include praise for easy handling in cars and garages, but repeated complaints about the noise, modest tank size and short hose length.
