Re: Hand Held Vacuum?
I had written a more detailed follow up....it seems to have gotten lost in the edit shuffle.

I LIKE IT !!
I will still likely go to the car wash machine or drag out my big can vac every now and then, but this is a great tool. It will run for about 10 mins before a noticiceable slight drop in rpm or suction. I use it as a daily or 2nd day "grab it tool" and just run it over the seats and mats. It does well on the carpet also. It will handle my X-Cab Colorado easily, but wouldnt want to do front, back AND cargo area on my Equinox.
It really comes into play with the brush attachment on A/C vent louvres and with the plain nozzle will fit right into your average cup holder.....a twist of the wrist...PRESTO ! those stubborn particles that live in the bottom of that hole are gone. The crevice attachment works really well on leather seat pleats and backs.
The bowl is easy to remove and empty and replace. One slight design quirk though, it doesnt have a positive "SNAP" when you place it in the charger. That, and the contact points dont give a solid sense of connecting. It does however have an indicator light to let you know its placed correctly. I thnk the "headlight" is a bit needless, but maybe some will like it. (Im not one for vacuuming in the dark all that often.) Im impressed with the suction on this hand held vaccum, much much better than the old Dirt Devils.
Regarding wet vacuuming in the car.....maybe on a day or two old coffee spill using a shampoo.....but forget doing any major stain removal over large areas. This is a great small tool for daily "brush-outs". That was my original need......this product fills it superbly.
Im very pleased with the purchase.
