Lets talk ash vacuums

[DoWnAqT]

I've been watching for deals on vacuums for cleaning the pellet stove. and I came across this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0060EUA32/ref=ox_ya_os_product

It's made by PowerSmith, and very reasonably priced. I like that it has a washable filter and metal can. I would assume that would make a great addition to helping me clean the stove. Anyone have one of these?

Yep, works well. Good value for the price, perfect size.

That is a really great vac. I'm trying to be a dealer for them. Love them.

40$ Lowes Shop-Vac with Bag filter / Hepa.

Would be nice to be able to vacuum the stove hot though -_-

I have the Powersmith - great ash vac, especially for the price!

I've had mine for the past season and like it. Make sure you get one of these small hose adapters for the tight spaces.

Benny's had them for $69 last fall

I think I'm going to give the Powersmith a try based on research and reviews plus it's small size so it can leave near the stove. Anyone done any shopping around and found a good price? Does Benny's have them on the cheap this season?
Amazon Prime is $94 and Home Depot is $90 shipped. Best price I've found so far from a retailer. There are a few on ebay for $81 but for me $9 is not worth the hassle if I need to return it or have a problem with the machine. Amazon and HD are easy for returns.

Thanks!

I know Mills Fleet & Farm had the Powersmith for $69 last year, that's where I was going to pick mine up. I ended up finding mine at my local Ace Hardware for $79 and figured I'd save on shipping and easier for returns if needed. So glad I got it, it makes the cleaning much easier!

Just put a call into Benny's and our local Cape Cod store has them for $69

I also use a shop vac with a drywall bag. Vacuum when cold.

I just bought mine through Mills Fleet Farm. $69 and a coupon code for free UPS shipping. Should be here Tuesday.

Just received my Powersmith from Blain's yesterday. Nice little vac. I tried it out last night and it works well. No more trashing expensive Shop Vac filters.

Bought one last year from Blain's Farm and Fleet for $69. Works great although I also use a shop vac crevice tool with it sometimes, since the one that comes with it is too short.

Just received my Powersmith from Blaine's yesterday. Nice little vac. I tried it out last night and it works well. No more trashing expensive Shop Vac filters.

It's a great little vac. Wish the attachments fit on the metal part rather than the extension tubes though.

Great little vac, but I got mine for a lot less than that! Think I paid around $70 from Mills Fleet
