- In detail
These models can be used to aspirate various liquids as well as dry dirt, and many are extremely powerful. Some also feature a blower feature which also increases versatility. Wet dry vacuums are also available in upright and other models. Some non-cylinder models of wet dry vacuum have an additional compartment that holds steam cleaning solution, enabling steam cleaning as well as dry vacuuming of carpets. In contrast to these, cylinder models operate strictly by suction.
Some cylinder models, especially industrial strength models, are large and can be heavy especially when their traps are full. Wet dry models in particular can become increasingly heavy when filled with liquids. However, other household cylinder models are small and compact and can even feature a shoulder strap for carrying the vacuum rather than pulling it on wheels. This feature increases the versatility of the model and enables its use in areas where a convenient floor space might not be available to set the cylinder on.
