DEWALT
DEWALT 12 Gallon STEALTHSONIC Ultra Quiet Poly Wet Dry Vacuum, DXV12P-QTA Powerful Suction Noise Reduction Vac, 5.5 Peak HP Shop Vacuum for Jobsite/Workshop, Reduce Motor Noise
Best for
Ideal for workshop owners and contractors who prioritize low noise over nimble hose handling; skip if you need to snake the hose around tight corners or frequently carry the unit up and down stairs.
What buyers say
Most owners agree this vacuum delivers powerful suction at a notably quiet volume, making it a genuine standout for noise-sensitive worksites. The trade-off: the included hose is stiff with no swiveling ends, so you may end up replacing it to improve maneuverability.
Loved by buyers

Buyer concerns
- •The included hose is stiff and lacks swiveling cuffs, making it frustrating to maneuver around obstacles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the filter washable and does it hold up over time?+
Yes, the cartridge filter is washable. One owner confirms it withstands brushing without tearing, so it should last through many cleanings.
