The floor sweeper with the swivel head is nicely designed and really easy to use. While the Fein is not as convenient, I still use it for the heavy duty cleaning jobs. I brought these before the current generation of cordless vacuums.
I really think I got my monies worth. I was very pleased when the kit arrived in just 4 days from Mike's Tools. Excellent product just like the vacuum cleaner. Thought maybe the price of this kit was too high but not so. I have owned the vacuum cleaner for 3 years and put off buying the kit. Thank you. What was I thinking.
I have had absolutely zero problems with any of the attachments. For now I am keeping the attachments in a drawer and the metal extension wands lean in a corner. I have owned my Turbo II vacuum for a number of years now, and I will admit that I was never willing to spend the money for these attachments. But I guess this is more my problem than a criticism of this tool set. Recently, I finally coughed up the money for these attachments and I am thrilled to have so much more versatility when using a favored tool. If there is a downside, it is the lack of a convenient way to store these tools "onboard" the Turbo II machine (as some other shop vacs offer). I have cleaned our cars, sucked up sawdust, and vanquished cobwebs all to my great satisfaction.
It is true that there are many lesser vacuums out there that include the tools, but I always told myself that I would rather have an awesome shop vac and no tools versus a so-so vac with tools. It is true that there are no "positive lock" mechanisms on the mating pieces, yet I have never had the attachments come apart even after hours of continuous use. Overall I am thrilled with the performance of this product and I recommend its purchase without reservation. The adjustable "bristles" on the floor attachment make pulling stuff off of carpet (such as dust/dirt/woodchips in a car trunk) a painless task.
I have a. Final complaint - I really can't imagine that anyone who orders the Fein vacuum cleaner wouldn't want the tools - they should come with the machine. . I am disappointed in the Fein tool kit for the following reasons: the devices are lacking a basic positive-lock connection feature (often incorporated in the form of that classic little round-topped chrome button that springs up into a hole on the mating piece), and they generally are (aside from the floor attachment and chrome tubes) very light gauge material. little Eureka "Mighty Mite" compact vacuum, and its tools are actually more substantial than the supposedly "industrial grade" Fein products. Separating them out seems to be a way of keeping the machine's cost down - ultimately an artificial savings. Ultimately I imagine these accessories will work fine, but I am actually amazed at the high price relative to what is provided.
The Wet/Dry kit works great and was produced with a higher quality material than I imagined. All in all, shopping at Amazon couldn't be easier and the Fein Wet/Dry kit is worth every penny. I was also leary about buying from Amazon and using the free shipping but, the kit shipped within two days and arrived within five days.
