Picked this Ridgid 1250 up for [...] bucks, not on sale, at the local Home store. At first, everything seemed fantastic with this product. Large hose, nice attachments that store on the unit, powerful suction, rolls smoothly. Great.
However, after vacuuming up about 1 ounce of dirt, when the machine was switched off, there was dirt pouring out of the sides of the unit (where the top meets the base). Fail. The base has a 1/2 inch flat area where it meets the top, and that 1/2 inch lip was covered with dirt, which then proceeded to drop onto the just-vacuumed floor. I removed the top to investigate, and POOF, a giant amount of dirt dropped onto the just-vacuumed floor. Double fail.
I'm always amazed when products get past so many designers and engineers, yet immediately fail in the hands of consumers while performing the most basic of expected functions. Perhaps Ridgid focused on testing only suction performance, and forgot to actually vacuum some dirt.
This one is going back, will try the Ridgid 1450 instead.
