Verdict

The Armor All AA155 is a compact, corded canister wet-dry utility vacuum powered by a 5-amp, 120-volt motor delivering 2 peak horsepower, 42 CFM of airflow, and 55 air watts of suction. Its main characteristics include a 1.5-gallon durable polypropylene tank, a 4-foot hose with a 1.25-inch diameter, a 6-foot power cord providing a 10-foot total cleaning reach, and dual functionality to quickly convert from a vacuum into a blower. Key pros include its lightweight design at just 4.6 pounds, an integrated powerhead storage system for its 6 included accessories, and a wall-mount bracket for convenient space-saving storage. However, notable cons include its relatively loud 80 dB noise level, a short power cord that may limit movement without an extension, and a somewhat cumbersome process when swapping between the reusable cloth dry filter and the foam wet filter.
