Summary
A cordless car vacuum sold by Fanttik under its “Slim V8 Mate” line, listed at $23.99 against a $79.99 original price. There is no independent test or owner discussion for this exact model, so check the brand’s own spec page before you buy.
Strengths
- Sold by the brand as a current model under its own “Slim V8 Mate” line, so it is a real product rather than a placeholder listing.
- The brand sells a dedicated 2-pack of replacement HEPA filters, so a spare-parts channel exists for this model.
- It sits at the entry end of Fanttik’s car-vacuum range, below the Slim V8 Apex and the Slim V10 family.
- Available in Black, Blue and Clear.
- The brand keeps the product page live and updating on its primary domain.
Weaknesses
- No independent instrumented test of this exact model was found, so its suction, runtime, noise and charge time are unmeasured.
- No owner discussion of the V8 Mate surfaced, so there is no real-world reliability record to compare against.
- The headline figures — 13 kPa suction, 90 W brushless motor, 17 min high and 30 min low runtime, 2600 mAh battery — come from the original product brief, not from a page that could be read.
- The storefront listing carries no spec table, no dimensions, no weight and no packing list.
- The same product is duplicated across five near-identical storefront listings with empty descriptions.
- Warranty length and terms are unknown.

Full research notes and sources
What it is and how it sits in the range
The Fanttik V8 Mate is a cordless car vacuum sold on the brand’s own US storefront as the “Fanttik V8 Mate Upgraded Cordless Car Vacuum”. Fanttik files it under the “Slim V8 Mate” line, alongside the separately branded Slim V8 Apex and the Slim V10 family, and it is the cheap end of that range: the storefront lists it at $23.99 against a $79.99 original price (fanttikstore.com, 2026-10), well below the higher-spec models. The “upgraded” in the title is not explained by any source that could be read, so treat it as marketing wording rather than a confirmed hardware revision.
What the evidence does and does not show
Here is the honest position: there is no independent measurement of this vacuum and no owner discussion. RTINGS’ own search returns no Fanttik product, and broader searches for the model name and its spec numbers returned only brand-level pages, no review and no owner thread. A negative search result is a flag on the search, not a verdict on the product, so do not read it as proof the model is bad. What it does mean is that none of the numbers floating around for this unit can be trusted yet.
The figures that circulate — 13 kPa of suction, a 90 W brushless motor, 17 minutes on high and 30 on low, a 2600 mAh battery, 1.07 lb and nine attachments — come from the original product brief. The brand’s own product page, which is where the manufacturer spec sheet and manual live, returned HTTP 429 on every attempt during research, so none of those numbers was confirmed against a first-party page.
Filters, spares and running costs
The one ownership fact that is established: the brand sells a 2-pack of replacement HEPA filters for the V8 Mate, so the vacuum is not a sealed unit and filters are a real ongoing cost. The filter page itself could not be read, so its price and replacement interval are unknown. The brand keeps separate warranty and returns pages, but their contents were not read either, so treat warranty as unknown.
Is it worth it?
At $23.99 against a $79.99 original price, the V8 Mate is positioned as an entry-level cordless car vacuum, and at that price the asking figure is coherent for the class of machine. What you cannot do is judge quality per dollar, because there is no independent test, no editor verdict and no owner history. If the brand’s own spec page loads for you and the numbers match, it is a plausible cheap car vacuum; if you need measured suction and runtime, look at a model with a published test.
