Been meaning to write this up.

I recieved a Coleman portable vacuum for Christmas. I figured it would be perfect to have around the garage for quick cleanups, and to take to car/truck shows to spiff up on the go.



I've charged it up a couple of times now, and used it fairly extensively around the garage and vehicles.

I've used other porti-vacs in the past, and have always found them to be pretty lame. Poor suction, not much battery life. The Coleman has very good suction, plenty of accessories all in a neat package. I had my wife sew up some fabric scrap into a bag that I then attached to the vacuum to hold all the extras.

Anyways, I've looked online and found them at about the $25-$35 range. My wife bought this for me at "Big Lots" for $19.99.. If you have one near you, and are in need of such an animal, I don't hesitate to recommend this little unit.

Edit: The model # is Coleman Powermate PMV 6992, and has a yellow top/black bottom.
