Verdict

The VINCO 40176 is a compact ash vacuum offered with 600 W or 800 W power, a 10 to 11-litre metal tank and at least 14 kPa suction. A washable EPA or HEPA filter, 80 cm metal hose and blower function make it useful for cold ash around fireplaces and pellet stoves. The 1 to 1.3 m power cable and short hose restrict reach, while operating noise is quoted at about 78 dB.
