The Rigid vacuum is a good deal. If you send in the paperwork, there is a lifetime guarantee. I got mine for 50 bucks several years ago and it's still going strong. These are good for workshops and general cleanup, cleaning your car for example, and the best part is that you can reverse the hose and use it as a blower. Put a sock or something over the end of the hose to stop little bits of stuff from getting in and use it to blow up floaties or to blow the water out of something before the winter. Noisy as heck but strong and reliable.
