Great review! I'm a big Harbor Freight fan. Pretty much all my tools have come from there. I don't use them that often so, as you said, kind of hard to justify spending the big bucks on the Milwaukee or Dewalt tools but Harbor Freight prices (especially on sale) and acceptable.
I got the Bauer and I love it. I also got the additional brush tip attachment kit for it. I wish the button was in a more convenient position. I was leaning toward the Hercules model because I like the dual power option (battery or plug in). The Bauer won the decision because I already have a Bauer drill and 3 batteries. And the Bauer line also has more tools.
The Bauer also seems a bit stronger with 5 more cfm. Tbh, the red/black of Bauer just looks so good. Also you can use a converter to use Milwaukee batteries.
I just did some research after watching this vid. There is a Milwaukee battery converter which will work on this very vac on amazon. Also, Hercules makes a version with a slightly lower cfm,40 vs 45 that can use batteries but also can be plugged in.
did you know that the batteries inside the bauers are Samsung batteries so on fairness , they are from a very good brand , they hold on very well to time and degradation, they really up their game with the bauer lineup
My take on it is if you're a professional (as in you make money doing it) get the Milwaukee, but if you're a hobbiest or like Tom just have a few jobs you need from time to time, get the Bauer.
Love my Bauer tools, I’ve been very happy with their brushless items and this vacuum 🤙🏽
Thanks for watching Mike

Thanks for Watching Tom! Agreed!
Yup. Those deals get me every time. They'll literally you a free tool with the purchase of a battery. It's all Chinese made anyways. Why pay more?
@jessepacheco6020 Agreed! Thanks for watching
If you’re not married to a particular battery tool/brand, this is an excellent option.
Thanks for Watching Ted! I agree!
I have milwaukee and bauer lol. Having a hard time choosing
@@Fakenamehere1969Im in the same boat. Just cant bring myself to ditch Bauer completely, they just bring alot of quality for the price point.
Great deal on the Bauer .. I have one I use to keep my pellet grills clean
Thanks for Watching! Perfect for that!
I bought Both Bauer and Hercules tools and like them both. Why pay triple and the batteries are way cheaper to replace. Harbor freight for the win!
Thanks for Watching! Agreed
I use M18 adapters for Bauer stuff so I don’t have to run another battery system. I already have M12 and M18.

Thanks for the info
I have the Bauer but end up buying all the Milwaukee Air Tip nozzles and I love it
Thanks for Watching! Good idea!
Yeah I have had the Bauer first day it dropped years ago and used it alot. Only problem is getting new filter....
Thanks for Watching!
Great review Tom, thank you 😃
Thanks for watching Eric!
Nice review
Thanks for Watching!
You’re not supposed to, but the Milwaukee also doubles as a step stool, haha
Thanks for watching! Wouldn’t recommend that
The bauer sounds stronger to me for some reason.
Will a Worx battery work for the Bauer? It’s 20v as welll
Thanks for Watching! No

Thanks for watching! Thanks for that information! Didn’t know that
Both made in China. Bauer it is.
Thanks for watching
I’ve used the dewalt one and it is garbage.
Thanks for watching Mike! Good to know
My take on it is if you're a professional (as in you make money doing it) get the Milwaukee, but if you're a hobbiest or like Tom just have a few jobs you need from time to time, get the Bauer.
Thanks for watching! Agreed
