One of the most time consuming and tedious jobs in life is, first of all, work, followed very quickly by cleaning and tidying the car.Up until now, my only option for vacuuming the car was to drag the upright vacuum cleaner out of the house, trail an extension lead across the driveway and try not to get the brushes on vacuum cleaner too dirty in the process. Fortunately, this mini car vacuum cleaner has put an end to this and made the task slightly less tedious in the process.The vacuum cleaner is very easy to set up and as there are virtually no instructions to read, even a man can use it! Simply plug it into the 12 Volt socket in your car,press the power button and you're in action.The nozzle on the cleaner rotates so that you can reach into all of the difficult areas (i.e. the never never land, where the dropped money and sweets etc don't ever return from). However, one slight drawback is that the nozzle itself is quite wide and even if you use the hose, all of the attachments are also quite wide and accordingly, there are still some very narrow parts of the car which it doesn't quite fit into.When using a normal household vacuum cleaner, this generally isn't a problem as there is plenty of suction to make up for not being able to quite reach down into the crevices however as this mini vacuum cleaner is only 12 volts, there obviously isn't anywhere near as much suction and so there are some parts which it just isn't effective on. Having said that, it does do a good job on any open spaces and leaves the vehicle looking respectable.The car vacuum cleaner is also easy to empty, as it uses the same bagless technology found on many vacuum cleaners, so you simply need to open the storage container and empty into the bin.On the whole, this vacuum cleaner does a very reasonable job at cleaner up the worst of the dust and dirt which manages to collect in a car, is very easy to operate and given that it is so compact, very easy to store as well. However, if you are wanting to give your car a deep clean and full valet, you may need to stick with the more powerful household vacuum.

This is a pretty convenient way to give your car interior a quick spruce up. I find that it’s powerful enough to suck grit and muck out of the stitched seams of car seats and leave carpets looking largely clean. It’s also pretty good at sucking up dog hairs.Obviously, being quite small (though a bit heavy) it can’t suck like a household vacuum. But being small, it’s easier to manoeuvre inside a car thanks to the pivoting ‘nose’. But the wide, flat nose, and rather chunky proportions, means it’s sometimes awkward to get to tricky bits behind or in-between seats. A more ‘pointed’ attachment would help.The extension hose with a brush on the end helps a lot with this but even this could do with a more slender or pointed end.You might end up leaving the hose on all the time even though it adds to the bulk.Emptying and cleaning is really easy – just like a miniature Dyson thanks to the cyclonic dust container. It holds enough dust to do the whole car.The machine looks really good, seems well made and is pretty foolproof. The whole unit folds in half and goes in a mesh bag for easier storage, but you have to wrap the long power cable around it somehow, and stuff the hose in the bag. You could keep it in the boot of the car, but I think it’s just a bit big for that so would keep it in the garage for more occasional use.So, not perfect, just scrapes four stars, but quite a good halfway house between a small but useless battery vacuum and dragging your main cleaner out of the house and down to the garage or across the pavement.

Oh how I hate vacuuming the car out. Having a toddler in the car basically means it's constantly attacked by crushed crisps, randomly thrown chunks of food and anything else she can get her hands on. So really its a mess despite my best efforts.Now I have a small portable vacuum which I'd wireless and does a decent job but it has a single attachment which is useless on anything other than a large surface. So enter this little fella.I have my reservations with car powered vacuums, more often than not they feel underpowered and really fail to deliver anything other than a battery drain.This black and decker vacuum features a cyclone suction which enhances performance and means to kinda actually works.Power wise it uses the car's 12v socket and doesn't feel under powered.The extensions and add ons are useful, especially the hose which adds a great dimension to what you can do with this as it's so much more easier to reach under the seats now instead of trying to angle the whole vacuum as far as possible.The vacuum itself can change angles using a pivot motion . It can be useful but to be honest I've kinda kept it in the same position since getting it.It's definitely the best car vacuum I've had so far, it's priced well and feels well built.

When this product arrived I was slightly surprised by its size. In the pictures it appears relatively sleek, however in reality it's actually quite a chunky product even folded in half. That's not a problem in terms of usage but creates a slight storage issue. Clearly the ideal place for this is the boot of a car, however in my small boot it actually takes up a little more space than I would like and as such I've decided to store in the shed instead.Onto the positives, the vacuum is extremely effective at removing dirt from your car and the fact it charges through the cigarette lighter makes it extremely convenient.The vacuum is flexible enough to clean all the nooks and crannies and there are several different adapting heads which enable effective cleaning whatever the surface.Overall this product is effective and comes recommended!

Black and Decker Auto Dustbuster is a handy tool for the car,the whole car vac is compact and has tools to use as well,the whole front section folds underneath so the hoover becomes smaller to store,the front section pulls out and has a handy brush that pulls up from under the lip of the extended front,i found that it is very good at getting into different places as you can alter the front into different positions,there is also a hose to connect onto the vac and a tool to use to clean up the carpets and mats,the whole Dustbuster is really good at what it does and it is nice not to trail wires across the drive to clean the car out,the vac is also cleanable with soap and water so you can keepit in tip top condition,very pleased with the whole vac.

This is a great looking, small, and not too heavy device that you can fit in the car and hoover things up quickly. Unless you are a car maniac, you probably won't clean up the car till the wife screams that she is not stepping foot into that hovel. This device can save you that type of argument. The problem is that it does not run on battery, but needs to be plugged in. In my car I have power points front. middle and boot, so this is not an issue, but I can see how it can make things challenging. Also, in most cars you need to have the key in the ignition to get the power sockets working, again an inconvenience. Overall a good solution that you can keep in the car,but I still prefer the little dyson.

I really dont like vacuuming my car as i have a heavy shedding dog but when this product advertised it could handle pet hair Ihad to give it a go. In short yes it does but it does struggle with the dog hair. I kept having to stop to clean the brush and the container. For general cleaning it is ideal.When I had finished I found it easy to clean and fold away into a neat package. The net bag it is stored in is easy to carry and stow away in my boot.Overall I like this product and all its attachments but will have to use it on a really regular basis but it does make it easier to keep my car clean.

Overall I've ben fairly impressed with this unit. It's compact (though a bit weighty for it's size), which makes it a much better option for light duty cleaning in the car than a full sized hoover. It can still be a bit awkward getting into some of the tighter crevices but for the most part it gets where it needs to. For such a small unit it has some power to it, but is still far from a true powerhouse. That said, it should have enough to it to take care of most of the day to day dirt you track into your car.

Quite a powerful little machine for it's size, although a bit heavier than one might think, I'd rather have this than a lighter machine that doesn't have the power. It's easy to empty, folds in half for easy storage and nice and comfortable to use. The pivot head is a great idea, as you can get into awkward areas with great ease. It would have been helpful to have an nozzle ccessory to slot onto the end, as it is quite wide. All in all, though, a nice, powerful little machine.

Reasonable car vacuum for the price. Ideal size and weight for regular use. Moveable head which lets you get into most areas. I chose '12 amp plug in' as I'd read somewhere that sucking power of a plug-in is better than cordless. I can't comment on that, as the sucking power is really only good for light crumbs. Not suitable for a good vacuum of mats after a week or two, if that's what you're after. Easy to empty. Comes with attachments but I haven't needed to use them.

Very impressed with this little vacuum for the car.It plugs into your cigarette lighter point and works very efficiently. It has a small hose for getting in to nooks and crannies and made short work of dried mud on the front mats.It's invaluable for cleaning up after our dog and small children....especially those crisps and biscuit crumbs!We store ours in the boot spare wheel compartment so it is handy wherever you are.Great!

This car vacuum is a neat and relatively effective way to clean your car without using extension leads along with a household vacuum.It folds relatively small, and there is a mesh bag in which the whole thing fits along with attachments.In terms of how well it works - it's good with general dirt and dust. For your average user it is probably excellent. It does however slightly struggle with dog hairs!

I love this little vacuum. As someone who does not like cleaning cars, and who often has a very dirty car, I was really glad to try out this product, and I'm happy to say it's made life a lot easier and I am now cleaning my car more often. It's a great little machine that can reach those hard to reach places too. My car is happier. 4/5

Living in a caravan, I wouldn't be without this. It's easy to empty, compact, and it's strong enough to pick up grit.It takes a bit of scrubbing to get the coarse dog hair out of the upholstry, but for a 12v vacuum it's a very good piece of kit.

Really great vacuum, small and powerful enough to do a great job. Read a great write up on comparison site for a top 10, and this is number 1.
