How well does this work if it was used exclusively as a car vac?

It is powerful enough for that purpose, with power to spare.It needs the normal cleaning as in the instructions.

I've used it in both my car and my elderly RV. Picks up the basic dust and dirt just fine. I use mine in the house as well and have been very happy with it.

It's main use is for floors. I used it on my couch once, but I dont think it cleaned it really well. I wouldn't buy this for car cleaning.

It works equally well on all surfaces. It does not get closer walls than an traditional vaccum.

I have not actually tried it in my car - but I will give you my opinions. It has better than average suction. Definitely better than those dustbusters. Not as good as your vacuum (if you have a decent one) and if you are used to the powerful suction of a shopvac or the vacuums at the car washes, you will be disappointed. Otherwise - I think it would be a passing second to hauling your inside vacuum out of the house to the garage outlets. If you are talking about sucking up tons of things from cars used by kids - I would go use a car wash vacuum. If you are just talking about general dirt, something that's spilled and vacuuming upholstery - then yes - I think it would be fine. Hope that helps.

Mine works fine in the garage for light stuff, and spots around the house. Of course we use a regular house vac on the 1st & 2nd floor. I am pleased for what it is. Greg T.

I would say yes. It is compact yet powerful enough to do a job like blowing dust and debrisfrom a car.

I have not used it as one, but only around the living room and the kitchen to pick up all the stuff that falls on the floor and the rug. Frankly, I think that it would do well as a car vacuum, as it seems to hold its charge well.

The lithium battery seems to have more than an hour of juice to run the vacuum. I have not run it to exhaustion, but my problem is that it lacks the real power cleaning an automobile would require. It also charges rather rapidly and is reported to have no problem with "memory" so that continuous charging between uses is not a problem.

Dust pick up works well. It will some what depend on the vac. My commercial vacuum works well. With my small 5 gal. shop vac it picks up about 75%. It will not get all of the dust but easily enough to cut in the room you are working. For the price this is a nice saw.

I only use it to vacuum the stairs and car and it has been perfect so far. I love it!

You've have to be pretty stout but I don't see a reason why not. The vac decreases the suction of a vacuum down to a pretty manageable amount though so you could have some problems dealing with that.

I got the vacuum just for that purpose! the battery holds 20-30 min charge, and it works well for me in the car. not great at removing pet hair, of course, but otherwise fantastic.

Yes, it is not only for car, but also for all purpose vacuum! I use it in the kitchen, living room, bedroom, stairs

Sorry it was horrible. It could not even pick up a hair! Don't think the car vacumns are worth the money. B & Decker do make a wonderful rechargeable in home vac with a nice built in narrow nozzle which I am using in my car. Hope this helps!

It's a vacuum...sure it will. just don't expect to vaccum the whole house with it.

Absolutely can blow dust off of a car. It's pretty powerful for being small. You will need an extension cord for it though. Cord is only about 6" long. I use it to blow off my sidewalks, front porch and deck. Works great.
