With less and less time on my hands, I wanted to find a vacuum I could use while being away from home, for times when I`m waiting in the car for someone else. Instead of surfing the forums, I can do a bit of cleanup. I wanted something cheap enough and small enough to leave in a car. It needed to have some basic attachments and enough power for everyday dirt. I looked around and most of the products in this segment have pretty poor reviews, in most cases due to unreasonable expectations (lots of reviews comparing power to the vacuums are a coin op car wash!)
I found the Armor All 12V Car Vacuum, the reviews online were beter than most of the other options. I like that it had a built in crevice too and a brush attachment. The coiled cord and carry bag were a nice touch. I picked it up for just a hair under $20. While availabe online at Amazon for slightly less, I wanted to grab it locally in case it was a dud.
In my initial use, it appears to be everything I needed. Power is good, its not amazing, but seems to have similar power to a cordless brushless vaccum we have that cost many times more than this. Small pebbles and sand seem to be no issue. I really like the crevice too, it integrates into the vacuum and won`t easily get misplaced. This won`t replace anyone`s shopvac, but it seems perfect for those quick cleanups when you have 5 or 10 minutes while you are waiting for someone. It also does wet cleanup, though I will only use that in an emergency, but it is nice to know if an accidental spill occurs, I can do some quick cleanup.
