I was in Lowes last week and they had the little Shop Vacs marked down from $44 to $19.97. Not being one to pass up a deal, I just couldn't resist. Even tho I had no idea what role it would come to play. I'm somewhat Vacuum poor and really didn't need another one.
Miss Ellie tend to scatter her poo in little pieces and it's a real pain to pick them up with a paper towel. Enter the Shop Vac. What an amazing job it does picing up the poo. I keep it handy and use the long tube assembly without an attachment on the end. Until she's properly pad trained (whenever that will be) the Shop Vac will make my life so much easier. Highly recommended.
It's the 6 gallon model. not the smallest but just the right size as far as i'm concerned.
