Stihl Introduces a Multi-Purpose and Affordable Vacuum Cleaner
Stihl now offers a new addition to its line of Ultra Deep Wet and Dry Vacuums. While they previously had a Pro model (SE 122) and a model designed for everyday use (SE 62), they have expanded their range with the Stihl SE 33 Wet Dry Vacuum. This entry-level model provides efficient performance at an excellent value.
What Sets the Stihl SE 33 Apart?
The Stihl SE 33 Wet and Dry Vacuum is not only tailored to cost-conscious consumers; it also boasts the same motor as its larger-capacity counterpart. This means you can enjoy the same powerful suction as the tried and tested SE 62, but in a compact size. Its versatility makes it perfect for a wide range of cleaning tasks, whether at home, in the office, or in a workshop.
Moreover, the Stihl SE 33 Wet and Dry Vacuum is equipped with a convenient Function Kit. It features a blower function that enhances its versatility for various applications. Additionally, its rear and front casters provide mobility on carpets, sills, and rough floors. The vacuum also incorporates a washable PET filter, ensuring easy maintenance.
The SE 33 comes with onboard storage, simplifying the organization of accessories. Stihl includes a switchable floor nozzle, crevice nozzle with a long metal crevice tool, rubber floor tool, long brush tool, universal nozzle, long brush tool, and a car cleaning kit.

A Comparison: Stihl SE 33 vs. SE 62
Let’s take a moment to compare the Stihl SE 33 to its larger companion, the SE 62, to determine which one suits you best.
Model | Stihl SE 33 | SE 62 |
---|---|---|
Voltage | 120V | 120V |
Motor Output | 8.3 amps | 8.3 amps |
Suction Power | 84″ H2O | 84″ H2O |
Air Flow | 127 cubic meters | 127 cubic meters |
Container Capacity | 3.2 gallons | 5.2 gallons |
Power Cord Length | 13.1 feet | 16.4 feet |
Straw Length | 6.6 feet | 8.2 feet |
Weight | 11.7 lbs | 16.5 lbs |
Price | $99.99 | $179.99 |
At first glance, the Stihl SE 33 closely resembles the SE 62. With both models sharing the same motor, you can expect equivalent power and performance from either option.
The main discrepancy lies in the volume capacity. The SE 62 has a larger container, as well as a longer power cord and straw. Despite weighing nearly 5 pounds more, the slight difference in weight is unlikely to impact your experience, especially considering the rear wheel/front caster design present in both models.
