I live in a apartment complex and I do not have a option for use my floor vac for my car and with a 2 yr old my car get messy almost every week . I clean my car atleast once in 2 week . I try many different vacuum -lrb- cordless , cord , cheapone and expensive once -lrb- $ 50 + -rrb- but I end up return each one of they for many different reason . but B&D; PAV1200W be the best auto vacuum you can have , it just take about 5 min for I to vacuum my car . I most use it with brush attachment as I get carpet mat and it work really good . only thing that I do not like very much be clean the filter take some effort but I be just fine with that too .
