Tools and Hardware Reviews of Porter-Cable 7812 10-Gallon 1-1/2-Horsepower Tool-Start Wet/Dry Vacuum
Customer Review: Excellent vacuum, poor bags
Summary: 4 Stars
We have been using the Portor Cable vacuums for about 17 years as a drywall company. We started with the previous model 7810. The new 7812 is a vast improvement over the old one, excluding the bags. The vacuum is extremely quiet, more so than any vacuum I have ever heard. It vacuums well and reliably. We abuse the vacuums a couple of days a week. They last about 5 to 7 years of rough service. It does filter out all of the dust very well and does not clog up. The automotive style filter catches any dust that gets by the bag. The vacuum does not have the air flow that shop vacs have. You will not find the cfms ratings on any web site. It will not vacuum up any large pieces with its smaller hose and attachments. Don't plan on using it for a wet vac. There is a sensor to detect moisture on the top of the vacuum bag chamber. You will get less than 5 minutes of wet use before the sensor cuts the vacuum off and you have to open it up to let it dry out before it will run again.
The bags on the other hand are a different story.
The previous model 7810 bags you could empty and reuse until they were wore out maybe 5 times. The glue to hold them together held well. The 7812 bags are glued with extremely weak glue. If you're not careful when installing them the flange will separate. The seam on the back of the bag often blows out while vacuuming. Even with extreme care dumping the bags is next to impossible without ruining the bag. I believe the new bags were engineered so you could not reuse them and they succeeded. We spend more on bags each year than the vacuum cost.
