How to choose a handheld vacuum cleaner at a price/quality ratio?

If you decide to buy a handheld vacuum cleaner, make sure that the model you like meets the main criteria for selection:

1. Type of appliance. There are two varieties of such devices, which are based on motor power. Most often, corded models are more powerful, but depend on the availability of an outlet or cigarette lighter. Battery models are slightly weaker, but fully autonomous, with a good level of charge they can be used at any time and in any conditions.
2. Autonomy. The criterion that applies specifically to cordless vacuum cleaners. Depends on the battery capacity and allows you to understand how much time you can spend on cleaning without recharging.
3. Size and weight. Handheld vacuum cleaners are always compact, but another important consideration is weight. To avoid fatigue during a long cleaning session and to be able to control the device with one hand, try to choose lightweight devices weighing up to 600 grams. However, there are heavier models, from 800 grams to 1.2 kg.
4. Dust collector. Most often, handheld vacuum cleaners are equipped with a dust container, the volume of 400 to 1000 ml. Before choosing a device estimate what area of cleaning will osilivate, it will help to understand what volume you need, so as not to interrupt the emptying of the container.
5. Nozzles. Significantly increase the functionality of the device, allowing you to clean different surfaces.
6. Operation from the cigarette lighter. The presence of this function is relevant for the device, which is planned to be used for cleaning car interiors and trunks.
7. Illumination. Simplifies the collection of debris in conditions of poor lighting, such as under furniture or in hard-to-reach places.

Takzhe convenient cat hair in the corners to collect and vacuum the stairs, (we live in a house), window sills. It is convenient to remove all parts and wash. Easy to attach to both wall and shelf. Fasteners are included!

One of the best among handheld vacuum cleaners for value for money is considered a device from a well-known manufacturer of home appliances, which operates on the account of the installed battery. Autonomous work duration is 18 minutes, while it will take about six hours to recharge.

	Really good suction. Even at low speed. A little bit of cleaning on the table or in the car is a good option. It's a kind of electric brush. No need to expect more. Really screwed up by the lack of any attachments. Takes 2 hours to charge. When the filter gets clogged it shuts off, which looks like a discharged battery. But it is worth cleaning the dust canister, as it starts working again. Uncomfortable to hold - although not heavy. There is no 90 degree adapter.

Compact handheld device that is designed for local dry cleaning in the kitchen, shelves and cabinets. It has good power ratings, the suction power is estimated at 120 watts. For garbage, a plastic container with a capacity of 100 ml is used, which can be considered a disadvantage, because you have to be distracted to clean the tank because of the fast filling.

It uses its own rechargeable battery as a power source, and its charge lasts for 30 minutes of autonomous work. The model has two power modes, in the high intensity mode the battery will run out after 9 minutes.

Exactly the same vacuum cleaner Xiaomi, but according to the characteristics of the battery is 2 times less and many people write that it does not last even one car interior cleaning. With 70mai such a problem not found. Excellent value for money. Let's see how long it lasts. The quality, design and usability is top notch. It is not heavy and easy to hold in my hand.

Nice and durable black plastic body, comfortable handle with a firm grip. The power source is its own 4000 mAh battery that provides up to 24 minutes of autonomous work.

	Tested it on mats with a decent amount of sand. At first it seemed like it was not picking up anything at all because visually it was like nothing was changing on the mats. And then we looked into the vacuum cleaner itself. Okay, we were wrong)). Apparently, unaccustomed to change, used to see instant results, as in a home vacuum cleaner. So the little guy knows his stuff and works to the best of his ability.

	The vacuum cleaner exceeded my expectations! Specifically neglected car (family, 2 small children, not vacuumed for more than half a year) I cleaned in an hour! This, of course, is not an industrial vacuum cleaner for 2 kW, but nevertheless - it absorbed everything, became clean! It's a pity that the stains on the chairs didn't wash out? The important point - the vacuum cleaner should be set so that the outlet holes from the side were not closed ... If the usual vacuum cleaners iron type of this problem is not particularly, then here, if you block these holes, it can overheat and burn ...

	Owner's Review
	Got what I expected - great for collecting dust, small debris, and hair from smooth surfaces. Power and charge are enough. A little worse for collecting pet hair from upholstered furniture, you often have to clean the lint on the brush. Easy to clean. Compact. Ideally, it would be better to make its "nose" thinner, so it would be more convenient to clean the dust from the books that are on the shelf. But this is generally not critical - tilt the book, went over it with the vacuum cleaner, put it back.

A compact device from a reliable company that is sold together with a charging base. Battery capacity is small, after six hours of charging autonomy enough for 9-10 minutes. The base can be mounted on the wall. The device supports two types of cleaning, dry and wet, there is a function of liquid collection.

	Easy and powerful vacuum cleaner for cleaning upholstered furniture and small dirt on carpets. Can even pick up dust from shelves. Handy for small cracks and crevices. It is easy to disassemble and shakes out the dust. It is easy to put it on the charger, but it is not so easy to take it off, maybe because I did not fix it in any way (I even did not look if there is a mount), it just stands there. Well, it looks a little flimsy. But whether this is a flaw can only be understood in the course of prolonged use. I'm very happy with the purchase so far.

	It has a very compact size. I have a handy way to hold the vacuum cleaner with one hand and to vacuum with the other and the hose stretches well. The battery is made up of several 18650 batteries so it is easy to change.
