Try and go for a plastic tank.  They used to do one for about £50 on E Bay.  Made by Draper.

Don't know if they are still on there!

At the end of the day you get what you pay for quality and longevity cost money but doesn't let you down.  We have sold hundreds of wet vacs but we only sell heavy duty ones for dealing with slurry and they are a bit more than you want to pay.  What do you want for £40?  Go for it if it last 6 months you can't really complain IMO.

its a short term contract and as i said only for two lavs once a week, so aslong as they suck up water then that will do.

not sure which one to go with tho - both really cheap and basic but thats all thats needed really
