Hi

Any recommendations for a small but powerful 12v vacuum cleaner? It’s only for a campervan and mainly for sand and dog hairs!! 

Many thanks

    12 volt vacuum cleaners are normally pretty ineffective. Though some are costly, I reckon you'd be better off with one of the cordless Dysons or Gtec cleaners.

    I have a lot of Makita cordless tools and even have drill in van for steadies, so son for my birthday got me a bare ( without battery ) Makita cordless vacuum and use the same batteries that's in the van. It's good enough for us but we don't have pets to say it's any good for hairs.

    I have a good old fashioned Black and Decker plug in dust buster. We have a dog and sand. It copes quite well. Cheap and works for me.

    We have a Dyson Animal, it operates at a higher voltage but we do have a 12volt charger for it. Using it daily in our caravan, a charge lasts several weeks, and it is very effective in removing our dog's hairs from the carpets. We bought it from the Dyson refurbish centre at a considerable discount off the new price.

    Yep, got one of those 😉, at least once a day in my van. Works fine in the heparin floor but not so well on the carpet.
