Question Recommendations for vacuum

I was wondering if anyone had recommendations on a good interior vacuum? I am talking something powerful that plugs into an outlet and can both shampoo the fabrics as well as suck dirt away. I play a lot of beach volleyball and sand/dirt get EVERYwhere on the car especially in the seat cushions.

On a serious note: I love my Rigid shop vac with the car cleaning attachment kit (sold separately) offers a great amount of suction and flexibility. Really not to bad of a price. You can then use the shop vac to clean up big messes around the house.

I bought my top half from Lowes. They sell the motor and hoses ffor under 20 dollars and all you use for the catcher is a 5gallon bucket that is usually 3 dollars.
It works great but if you were going to do a business, I would look into Dayton vacs.

Metrovacs seem nice... I'm still not sure if I should get plug in or battery operated. The metrovac hand vac + some of the battery operated ones have great reviews. Since I don't have a garage and live on the third floor of a condo complex I do not have easy access to an outlet. May have to go to a friend's place or a self carwash to get one.

Sears makes a nice little mini shop vac with lots of attachments you can get for it. Its handy and super portable.

I highly recommend the DEWALT DC515k cordless vacuum cleaner.
