Default Garage Vacuum

Do you have any experience with the Hoover wall-mounted GUV (Garage Utility Vacuum) L2310? At less than $150 delivered, it looks good on paper, but I'd like to know if it works well.
Any other suggestions for a wall-mounted vac?

I have a Craftsman 5hp and 5 gallon wall mounted vac. Comes with 17ft of hose and several attachments. Can be taken off the wall and carried also...very light and sucks great. At well under $100 ($80 I think) it is a great buy.

Do you have a central vac? If so - It's easy top plumb into...then get the garage kit.

No, Unfortunately I don't.
I considered putting one in, but with no basement and minimal space above the finished ceilings, it's a very tough installation.
