Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Rikon vacuum has great suction and is quiet compared to a canister vac.

The hose and funnel aren't anything fancy but it's nice to have regardless. Works great for lathe work. Used it ripping baltic birch plywood on a 10 contractor saw today.



Cons

The supplied hose is so stiff that it is unusable. Low suction. Clumsy to move about even with casters.

I find it very quiet a low hum rather than the ear plugs mandatory scream of a shopvac

    I’m not sure if that’s manufacturer’s fault or amazon’s delivery

    As other reviews pointed out the motor cover arrived bent preventing the motor from spinning


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Damage on the box corresponded to damage on the protective shroud but the shroud did its job and protected the blades of the fan underneath


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Movement was impeded by the dent so i had to remove the shroud and beat it back into shape


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There was also rustylooking dust inside the box that looks like it blew in through the damage on the box
