There’s no doubt about it. Rolling out 14 miles of extension lead just to plug in your vacuum cleaner is soooo last Tuesday.

That said, unfortunately for us, most cordless items simply don’t have the grunt needed for giving your car interior a good going over.

That’s not the case with the new Vax Blade though, because these monsters (available in 24 and 32V versions) have all the power of a corded vacuum but the portability of a, er, cordless vacuum.

With a lithium battery serving up 35 minutes of hardcore sucking action on a single charge, and a boost button for the ultimate happy ending, this one could be the perfect cleaning companion.

Oh, and there’s also this weird long brush attachment thingy, just in case you want to use it on the floor in your house too. OK, maybe not.

Price £160
