Car Care
Fanttik Slim V10 APEX Cordless Car Vacuum
If you are a car owner who likes to keep their vehicle in excellent condition, you understand the value of having a compact, easy-to-use vacuum for when your car needs a quick spot clean. Fanttik’s Slim V10 APEX comes in right handy with its cordless, handheld design. With a 3000mAh battery that has a runtime of 30 minutes on the low setting, and 15 minutes for some more high-powered suction, it has enough to get quick jobs done for quick touch-ups. It comes with a 4-in-1 adapter, so you can get into any nook in the car, and easily empty the contents when it’s time. And my favorite: it charges with USB-C (as all devices in 2026, going into 2027, should!)
Price: $129.99
Fanttik Polar G10 Max Ice Scraper
Winter’s coming, and one thing we know everyone hates is having to scrape ice off your car. Fanttik has thought of this and gives us the cordless ice scraper. One push to break through thick frost. Dual brushes, for both ice scraping and just snow. And again, love them for the USB-C charging port!
