Hi, does anyone have one? Saw them at the C&C show last month. Having now purchased a caravan I was considering buying a vacuum not only to keep the mats clean but also to use on the vacuum seal bags. As it weighs less than 2kg I thought it would be ideal. However I have since seen YouTube videos saying they do not pick up off carpets. At £50 it's expensive if it can't pick up off the carpets.
I need something with a long handle so I can use like a normal vacuum due to arthritis so a hand held is not suitable Any suggestions?
Thanks
Helen

Hi,

I got one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dihl-3-in-1-Vacuum-Cleaner-Blue-600W-Hand-Held-Upright-........ and it seems to be quite good, lightweight too but I have not had it long and it hasn't been tested to the limit so time will tell but it's half the price of the Merlin product you have seen.

WE have a Merlin. Ideal for the caravan. We don't use the long handle, but it is a powerful handheld bit of kit.

We have one and its fantastic. I have used it for a few years and you can buy replacement filters on ebay also.

I don't think you would be disappointed.

Thanks for the replies. Need to keep looking before I make a purchase though I think.
