What we like about Einhell TC-VC 2045 S

  • Excellent value for money with robust suction power for both wet and dry debris.
  • Durable and rust-proof stainless steel 20-litre container is easy to empty and clean.
  • Very lightweight and highly mobile, featuring four swivel castors and a practical carrying handle.
  • Convenient integrated cable and accessory holders to keep everything organised during storage and transport.

What we don't like about Einhell TC-VC 2045 S

  • Power cable is quite short (typically 3 metres), often requiring the use of an extension cord for larger areas.
  • Included suction hose (1.5 metres) is relatively short and rigid, which can limit maneuverability.
  • Can be quite loud during operation, which is standard for most budget-friendly shop vacs.
  • Filter maintenance is required frequently; fine dust can clog the filters if not managed properly.

Verdict

The Einhell TC-VC 2045 S is a corded wet-dry vacuum cleaner featuring a 900W motor that generates a suction capacity of 180 mbar and a noise level of 78 dB. Its core characteristic is a robust, rustproof 20-litre stainless steel collection container supported by a 36 mm diameter hose system and an integrated blowing connection for hard-to-reach areas. Main pros include its lightweight 3.45 kg design, smooth mobility via four swivel castors, a complete accessory kit (combi nozzle, crevice nozzle, and foam/dirt filters), and neat onboarding with integrated cable and accessory holders. On the downside, its 3-meter power cable and 1.5-meter suction hose restrict the total operating radius to a somewhat limited 4.5 meters, and the plastic 3-piece extension pipes offer less durability than metal alternatives.
