Black & Decker PAD1200 Flexi Auto

We have moved outside the house for this test of the Black & Decker PAD1200 Dustbuster Flexi Auto car vacuum cleaner. Ideal if you can't get mains power to your car, this compact bagless cleaner is powered from the car's 12V accessory socket with a...

While it struggles with stubborn dirt and pet hair this is otherwise a well designed vac with good accessories for keeping your motor looking its best.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Nifty, but not what I needed

I was not expecting a professional vacuum, but I expected one notch better than this. Overall, not satisfied. If hindsight is 20/20, I would've passed on this.

Plugs into your car. It is rather organized with the cables and hose

Not strong enough. definitely not what I was looking for. It will only pick up 50% of the debris. Expecting more performance, but it flopped. Gets the job half done, with a lot of effort

OK, but not what I expected

Makes use of the sig lighter in the car... where you plug in cell phone car chargers (or other chargers for other accessories.)

Not strong enough, does not pick up with any power. Leaves scattered mess for only a half decent clean

The iron I had forever recently sent itself to "iron heaven". Knowing nothing about newer irons, I went to the store and looked over the myriad of choices. Not knowing which one was better than the other, I just picked one up at a reasonable price. The...

Very powerful

Very pleased with this. It is a replacement for my old Dustbuster which I had had for many years. This model is much more powerful than my old one.

Excellent light weight vacuum cleaner

I bought this vacuum cleaner as wanted something to do the insides of cars and the stairs in the house. It fulfils these needs perfectly, and is easy to use. The battery lasts long enough to do 2 cars and a bit more. Overall, simple to use and effective.
