Advantages: Easy to use, light, inexpensive, robust
Disadvantages: The clip holding the two parts together would be better located at the side

...eventually decided to buy a Dirt Devil DDRHH3. Why did we choose this one? The main reason for our choice was the fact that it was one of the more powerful ones on offer at 13.2V. We thought that, with the amount of cat hairs about the place, the more powerful the better! Where did we get it from? Well, there's a story to that choice - you know me there would be wouldn't there? We did a search on the Internet for Dirt Devil DDRHH3 and it was ...

Advantages: small, light and lots of accessories
Disadvantages: none

if you hate vacuuming like i do then you will probably hate vacuuming stairs even more but if you get yourself one of these hand-held mains cleaners you will be volunteering for the stairs job every time. This lightweight little appliance is only small but it can do a big job. The motor is only 180 watts so you are not going to contribute much to global warming, but it is powerful enough to pick up anything that gets in its way . The dust bag is ...
...set of handy tools to go with it. Potentially this little devil can perform a vast range of tasks where a conventional vacuum cleaner wont be able to manage. I am still finding uses for it. There is a handy gadget that comes with it so that you can fix it on the wall or behind a door but the colour and appearance is so smart that you wouldn't want to hide it away. Altogether a very useful, effective and reliable tool. ... Read review

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Doesn't actually work

...little jobs like the edge dirt that the Roomba always leaves. I always see what Costco have first. They were out of the Dustbusters that I had seen there before, but they did have this Dirt Devil. In fairness, there is definite shelf appeal. The unit is nicely finished, and the red is very rich. The chrome on the catch is deep -- it looks good. There are no real surprises -- there is a charging base on which the unit sits, a "wall wart" power adaptor, ...
...to work well. The dirt has to make it's way through a long, narrow airway that runs under the unit before entering the back of the clear plastic dirt chamber through a rubber flap. This flap stops the dirt escaping once it's in. The crux of the problem is that the unit is so underpowered that it can't drag anything of any size through this airway/flap arrangement. The likes of clumps of dog hair or the paper chips that end up around the shredder ... Read review

...up the mess! The dirt is collected in the plastic removable nozzle, which clicks onto the fan section. A push button on the front released the nozzle and you tip the dirt away. - - - VACUUM POWER! - - - It can only tackle dry dirt - like dust or crumbs. The section power is not the strongest, so it cannot suck in water / liquid spills. Besides I would not recommend that! The cloth filter will soak up wet dirt and then you'll never be able to get ...

Advantages: Price
Disadvantages: Cord length, Motor strength, Dirt capacity

The Dirt Devil 136 is great value for money in my opinion. The vacuum comes with some optional add on nozels and is perfect for single people or a small family. The cord could be a little longer, and also the capacity in which dust is collected could be larger. This can be a bit time consuming because after ever clean you need to take the contents to a bin due to the size. The 600 watt motor seems to do the job ok. But as I mentioned before due to ...
...the motor could be larger. If you have a carpet this could pose a problem which it does for us sometimes. If you have wood floor then you will love this little dirt devil. The cord also retracts at the push of a button which is good. ... Read review
