My 16 gallon unit broke a couple of years ago, and I bought the cheapest
one that I could. I almost never use my vac for wet pickup...mostly for
vacuuming out the cars. I think the 1.5 gal unit with 1' cord can be
had for about $20. I still have all of the attachments from the old vac,
so I wasn't worried about accessories. The thing isn't nearly as much
of a storage problem either. The really nice ones have a detachable
blower which would be nice once in a while I guess. Regarding the noise:
I wear ear plugs when I clean the car or anytime that I have the thing
on for more than a minute or two. My ears ring for over a day afterwards
if I don't.
