Hence, it has driven the growth of the wet vacuum cleaner market in terms of sales value.

Therefore, corded vacuum cleaners have a higher dust collection capacity compared to cordless wet vacuums. Additionally, the corded water vacuum has a much larger storage space for collecting dust and liquid spills. So you can vacuum for a longer period without needing to empty it frequently.
