What we like about Armor All VO405P 0901

  • Strong suction power for efficient wet and dry cleanup
  • Compact, lightweight, and highly portable design
  • Comes with practical and versatile nozzle attachments
  • Operates at a relatively low noise level compared to similar models
  • Easy to assemble, use, and maintain out of the box
  • Includes a functional blower mode for clearing debris
  • Long 15-foot power cord provides a good cleaning reach

What we don't like about Armor All VO405P 0901

  • The hose diameter is somewhat narrow, causing larger debris to occasionally get stuck
  • Plastic clips used to secure the top powerhead to the base can feel flimsy and lack sturdiness
  • Switching between the wet and dry filters can be cumbersome for some users
  • Minor quality control issues, such as handles requiring reinforcement or glue

Verdict

The Armor All VO405P 0901 is a portable 4-gallon wet-dry shop vacuum equipped with a 2.0 peak HP motor that delivers 660W of suction power and a dual-function blowing mode. Weighing 8.4 lbs, this compact unit features a durable polypropylene tank, a 15-foot power cord, and a 6-foot flexible hose paired with versatile nozzle and brush attachments, making it ideal for home, garage, and vehicle cleaning. Main advantages include its powerful suction, easy assembly, and extended reach, though it lacks an extra replacement filter and a dedicated carrying case for more convenient storage.
