Makita LXT DCL180

Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Price: £32.99 (battery £60.85; charger £74.25) | Battery: 18V

Perfect for users of Makita cordless tools as each element is sold separately – so if you already have a charger and battery, this smooth-running cleaner is a bargain. Its cleaning was only topped by our winner and the Dyson, but the 3Ah battery ensured more than 35 minutes’ running time. It’s light and easy to use in the car, plus it comes with an extension tube, making it useful in the home and workshop, too.
