Did you try the vacuum by having the switch on then plugging it in to the inverter while the inverter is off then turning on the inverter? I can run my vacuum if I turn it on in that procedure. If the inverter is on and I try to switch on the vacuum it throws an over current fault. I got it for $110 on sale knowing it's only a 700-1000w usually and I can't really complain about it at that price.

Did not try it that way, this was a review of what it can do using standard procedures. I have other inverters which can easily power the vacuum cleaner, but I may include this kind of procedure in the future as a curiosity for inverters which can't outright power it. I think if this unit had the soft start feature it would work out of the box. But as it is, it's a standard test, since it's the same vacuum cleaner for all tests ;)

A toy inverter.

It's not bad for what it is, if you stay within 1000W it's super solid.. on 12V you need to really beef everything up once you break 1000W.
