 Good suction but very tiny openingNov 18, 2009
1. Suction on this is very good. It had no problem pickin up pet hair from our microfiber couches. These usually hold the hair like velcro and this was able to get it off no problem.
2. Although the suction was good, the width of the opening is ridiculously small for this type of job. It is a great nook and cranny dustbuster but for stairs or furniture you are going to be doing a LOT of back and forth.
3. After the first charge of 21 hours the suction lasted for about 10 minutes before dropping off noticeably. I cleaned the filter after that and re-gained a small amount of suction for about 60 seconds before it dropped off again. I am familiar with rechargeable batteries and understand that they need to cycle a few times before they reach their peak but I'm doubting this will ever go more than 20 minutes before loosing significant suction. That wouldn't be bad if the aforementioned width of the intake wasn't an issue.
4. It is a bit heavier than some of the older dustbusters I've used but that is probably a result of the increase in battery/motor size.
5. Filter cleaning isn't really THAT easy. Unless you are sucking up hard plastic items or jellybeans you are going to have to remove the paper filter and clear it of dust and debris by hand.
Overall a good product but not suited well to my particular task of cleaning up pet hair daily.
 noise = sharp and high soundNov 18, 2009
Before my purchasing this item I got a bit concerned about the noise, some of the reviewers were complaining about.
So that I was expecting to have a cordless hand held bulldozer.
I guess, I understand why people complain.
The noise of the machine is not thaaaat loud, but it is sharp and high frequency sound.
So that, if you feel uncomfortable for these kind of noise, then, it might disturb you.
I really don't care, as it is very powerful as many people have said.
Also, the nose is thin, so it is very easy to reach small and narrow areas.
Overall, it is a great vacuum cleaner.
I recommend it, if you don't care about these kind of noise.
This does what all hand vacs should doNov 18, 2009
Strong suction, properly directed exhaust, useful battery life, simple to clean, compact storage - that's pretty good for a handheld vac. The only potential improvement would be the use of lighter weight lithium batteries, but I probably would not be willing to pay the premium.
 great little sucker!Nov 17, 2009
This was purchased to replace an old hand vac that died.
The suction is great! Just need to clean the filter and it's good to go.
Very SatisfiedNov 15, 2009
Bought this maybe about 2 years ago. My concern in buying another hand vac was the reliability (battery life) of the old "Dust Busters". This one is supposed to have a replaceable battery but I have never had that need since it still works through any job I have for it.
