Dyson Car+Boat

Name: Dyson Car+Boat
Brand: Dyson
Price: 229 USD
Availability: InStock

Car+Boat is Dyson's entry-level handheld and the cheapest machine in their current lineup — built specifically for vehicle interiors and other tight, upholstered spaces rather than whole-home cleaning. It includes a mini motorized tool for pet hair on seats, a combination tool, and a narrow crevice tool that reaches into door pockets and center console gaps. Runtime is a genuinely useful 50 minutes, longer than either the Humdinger or the fluffy-head sticks, because there's no full-size cleaner head drawing extra power. The honest caveat: the filter here is a washable standard filter rather than Dyson's usual whole-machine HEPA seal, so allergy-sensitive buyers should look at the Humdinger or a stick instead.
