Decent suction and a great concept.
I bought this because it was getting difficult to connect the Dyson to multiple extension cords and drag it out in the rain and this had a really good design and a better alternative to the hand held cordless option. Though it's suction isn't as strong as the Dyson, it does a pretty good job and reaches all the hard to reach areas. Also when I went in store to collect it, the person who gave it to me also had one and was very helpful and advised me to be careful with the hoover head. I'm glad he did because I was a lot more gentle with it and it does feel more on the delicate side.

12v Car Vacuum
There are 2 models of this product. They look the same, but one is plugged in to the cigar socket (which I bought from Argos) and the other, not sold by Argos, is operated by a rechargeable battery. That one may have more power but is nearly double the price. This has very poor instructions - done by photos alone - so it took me a while to work out what the buttons are for and how to unclip the hode - it just pulls out. It does have a long power cable, so will stretch to anywhere in the car. It has two attachments. The brush type one has a flip over brush, which can be easily unflipped! The other is a nozzle. Although the power doesn't seem to be great, it is effective and managed to clean up most grass and soil . I don't know how much it flattened my car battery, but the instructions do suggest not to use it whilst the engine is running. My car started fine afterwards and the battery doesn't seem to have suffered. The cleaner isn't bulky but doesn't seem to be a great shape like a more normal car vac, but I guess this hose type is better at getting onto crevices. It's not as good as a domestic mains model, but is probably more convenient to use.

Worth the money 10/10
A good vacuum cleaner. For your car. Had 2 now. Lifts all sort mock out your car. Plus all ways keep filter cleaned. Think one best on market.

Mains leads a bit too long
I have had a few vacuum cleaners bought from Amazon that stopped working after a short time. This one is very good although the mains lead is quite a bit too long.

Great car vacuum
Very good car vacuum, the reach to get in the back is the best. It is the most powerful one I have used so far. It can vacuum the whole car very easily and sucks up dirt very well. I can highly recommend this item.

Hi Tina,
Black + Decker 12V Auto Flexi Car Vacuum
The Black + Decker 12V Auto Flexi Car Vacuum is a corded device and cannot be used independently; it needs to be attached to another device for power.
This vacuum is designed specifically for in-car use and operates by plugging directly into your car's 12V DC outlet (cigarette lighter socket) using a 5-meter cable. It does not have a built-in rechargeable battery, which means it will only work while connected to a power source in a vehicle (or a separate 240V to 12V converter if you wish to use it at home)
Thank you for using Q and A

Hi Carl.
