Metro Vacuum HRS83BA Garage Wall Mount Vacuum/Blower Review

by Mike Duncan

I’m a huge fanatic when it comes to keeping my garage and cars clean, and that means I need a very powerful yet versatile vacuum system. Unfortunately, over the past few years I’ve been through tons of different makes and models from the major players and none of them really lived up to the marketing hype. That all changed though when I ran across the Metro Vacuum HRS83BA Garage Wall Mount Vacuum/Blower. Today I’m going to share my review with you, but first let’s see what it has to offer.

The Metro Vacuum HRS83BA features all steel construction and runs on a powerful 4 HP, twin fan industrial motor that’s capable of producing over 95 inches of water lifting power. It comes with a 24 foot hose (broken down into six foot segments), giving it incredible reach, even while mounted on the wall (this mount is included). It also comes with a handy set of 4 car detailing tools, a swivel wall and floor brush, two 20” extensions, a Magic-Air inflator nozzle (for tires, blow-up beds, sports equipment, etc.), a powerizer air maximizer, dust brush, crevice tool and upholstery tool.

My Experience with the Metro Vacuum HRS83BA

Alright, enough with the specs. Any company can put together an impressive feature list for their product but what matters at the end of the day is whether or not the product actually lives up to the hype. After several months of use, I can honestly say that the Metro Vacuum HRS83BA does just that and more. I’ve been completely blown away by just how powerful and how useful this thing is. In fact, I’m constantly finding new uses for it.

I keep mine mounted on the wall in the garage 99% of the time, and even while mounted, I can still reach and clean both cars in the garage including the trunks (I have mine mounted on the far wall closest to the front of the vehicles). And thanks to all of the included attachments, I can get down into every little nook and cranny in each vehicle like under the seats and in the little crevices on the consoles. I can even clean the air vents and suck out all the dirt, leaves and other debris that falls down into the gap between the windshield and the hood. I love this thing!

Pros

  • Tons of power for such a compact vacuum
  • Includes a 24 foot hose, and even with the full length attached, it doesn’t lose any suction
  • Wall mountable, so it stays out of the way and off the floor
  • Tons of included attachments for a variety of jobs
  • Durable all steel construction
  • Made right here in the USA

Cons

  • For this price I think they could have thrown in the optional wheel casters, which come in handy when you do take the vacuum down off the wall
  • Dry use only (it’s not a wet/dry vac)

The Bottom Line

Overall I couldn’t be more pleased with the Metro Vacuum HRS83BA. Unless you plan on vacuuming liquids, this is the perfect all around shop/garage/vehicle vacuum. It has tons of different uses and thanks to the incredibly long hose (included!) you never feel tied down like you do with other vacs. Best of all, it’s made right here in the good old USA. Because of that and all the other benefits this vac has to offer, I wouldn’t have any reservations about recommending it to anyone that needs an excellent all around vacuum.
