Recently, my mother-in-law gave us a wall mountable car vacuum which I hung up in the garage. When I mounted it, I really didn't pay that much attention to the location - I was basically just trying to hang it where there was a space and a stud. After mounting it, I realized that the long hose on it allowed me to vacuum my car, the boat and the doorsteps without even taking the vac off the wall. Cool! With the vacuum being in the garage and not having to lug the house vac outside, we vacuum everything more often than we used to. Now if I can just get my son to use it on his car...
