Fanttik: Vacuum for Your Car

 Your Car Seat Is a Mess!

As your child enters the toddler stage, he or she is going to want to eat everywhere and all the time. Especially in your just washed, cleaned car and the car seat. 

For those of you who value your time with your precious ride, you know how painful it is to watch the cookie crumbles, pieces of bread, smushed banana, and etc. falling in every single corners your fingers can't get to. 

I love my child, but the mess she made in my car wasn't a pretty sight. I wrote to Santa Clause last Christmas wishing for a portable vacuum cleaner. And guess what, I've been nice all year! 


Fanttik Vacuum Cleaner with many parts laid out


How I found the brand:

One of my colleague brought a different model of Fanttik vacuum to the office. I have been thinking about getting a vacuum cleaner for the car for awhile. 

She said she got it from Costco. And we believe in the Costco's purchasing department deeply. She let me try it. 

My first impression: this sucks! I mean literally sucks in all the dusts from my office desk! 

I did my research.


How I chose this model:

The one I tried at the office was shaped like a pistol, where the handle is perpendicular to the hole where the suction happens. This is useful and handy if I don't intend on using it in tight spaces. The angle it creates with the handle does limit the maneuverability.

I looked for one that is straight, has both suction and blow functions, and many accessories that I might not even use, but just in case. ;)

I found this one on Amazon for the sales price of $65.99. Now it's a regular price. 

Few Important Specs:

It's called Fanttik V8 Apex Car Vacuum.

4-in-1, Portable, Cordless, 19000pa suction power, Type-C charge.

The box includes 5 different ends for the suction, 4 different sized holes for blowing. 


How I like it:

Our weekends as parents are too precious to be wasted on going to car wash and detailing. Settling for quick clean up inside the car somewhat comforts you, because at least your sitting area is clean. You get to see the car's inside more than the outside. 

It takes about 10 - 15 minutes to clean the front, rear, and trunk area for my sedan. The most time is spent on cleaning the car seat and the areas around it. You get to find treasures like banana peels that you don't even want to know how long it's been there. 

Anyhow, I always carry the vacuum cleaner in my car and clean at least once a week. Maybe when I'm at work and on lunch break. I could spare few minutes to stop by the parking lot to clean. 

When the car seat is clean and tidy, my daughter resists less to sit on it. So, all the worth.
