This Shark MessMaster Portable Wet Dry Vacuum is perfect for what I want to use it for. During real heavy downpours my screened in back porch has gotten at least an inch and a half of water on it and I had to sweep it out with a broom so now with this wet/dry vacuum it will save me so much time and no more worries. It's also great for small cleanups too. It has several accessories included such as a squeegee, a carpet tool, a crevice tool and extension wands. I trust the name Shark because I have several other Shark products and I love them all.
