Advantages: no dirty bags to fumble with
Disadvantages: none so far.

...I just recently bought a large red devil. A bagless dirt devil vacume cleaner to be precice. It is bagless, dustless, not so much noisless. The bagless dirt devil is 1500 wat powerfull devil. It speeds through your carpets and leves them clean and well brushed. The dirt box is as easy to remove as lifting your kettle. It has a nifty dust box which has a pop open filter for ewasy cleanning. It comes with free set of filters and is a jazzy bright red. The only problem I found is it needs more froquent emptying as it lifts dirt from deep down in your carpets. It supports on board tools and has a tough easy stretch hose for stairs. a slim crivice tool for all theose hard to reach places. A six filter system which means you get virtually no fine dust blowing around. at a cheep price of £69.99 a fraction of the cost of a dyson, but with all... Read review

Advantages: Works well and handy
Disadvantages: Noisy and abttery doesn't last long

...Dirt Devil are a well known brand for manfacturing all types of hoovers and cleaning utilities. This was bought as i wanted something that would save the hassle of having to take out the main hoover when there was a spillage or some mess like crumbs falling onto the carpet. When you buy this you get: One Dirt Devil hand held vacuum cleaner, Rechargable Battery, AC mains adapter, instructions pamphlet To use it is easy,you simply switch it on using the power button and then it comes on and you simply point it whatever you need to vacum up. Like most of these handheld hoovers,they lose charge quite quickly so it is better to use the main hoover if you have a lot of stuff to hoover. I would also advise against overcharging it as that damages the battery life further and new batteries are a nightmare to get a hold of. After use... Read review

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Poor pick up/bad cleaning

...When we decided to invest in a new vacuum, we forgot a very important adage. "You only get what you pay for". While there are exceptions to the rule, they did not apply to the Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaner that we purchased last year. On perusing the many makes, models and styles available at Comet, we decided to opt for a cheap replacement for our upright hoover. The model we opted for matched our old style. An upright. Dirt devil make several versions of upright be we went with the Featherlite. Sheerly for the price as they were on special offer. The Featherlite is a good description for this hoover. It is extremely lightweight, making it easy to carry up the stairs. We all know how heavy they can be and when it is full of dirt and dust, it increases further.However, it is a very noisy hoover which negates any advantage made... Read review

Advantages: It's light and easy to handle.
Disadvantages: Larger vacuums do work better.

...When we moved from Edmonton to Victoria we sold our Hoover and bought a Dirt Devil because it was much smaller and easier to use. We bought it from London Drug Store where we always buy our electrical things. We did not look at any other Vacuum Cleaners because I had my heart set on a Dirty Devil. The Model we bought was the "Ultra Model 8230". Our Dirt Devil is red and made of a high impact plastic. This Model is a small hand held one. It comes with a 4-amp motor, the cord is about twenty inches long, a place to store the cord inside the Vacuum, a long nozzle, ( that is at least 6 inches long) and it has a dual cleaning edge that can become a blower when you reverse the switch. There is a built in an adapter, one revolving brush, (for place that are hard to clean), a hose that stretches out, a cloth bag that can we shake out... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, lightweight, good suction
Disadvantages: Hair/ string buildup on underside

...Who really enjoys cleaning? I personally hate cleaning, although it has to be done, if you have the right tools cleaning can be quick and painless. With The Dirt Devil 85500 Upright Vacuum I can easily clean all the carpet in my home in a fair amount of time, which leaves more time for me to do what I really love, write Reviews. Not only is this vacuum light weight, it is rather small compared to other model vacuums and stores well in my closet. This is my second Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner, the other one I shall not name specifically, however I will say I wasn't impressed. The Dirt Devil 85500 Upright Vacuum has many neat features that allow you to not only clean carpets, but gives you the power to clean blinds, curtains, rugs, cars, and ceiling fans. This vacuum is so easy to use, my five year old daughter loves to help me... Read review

Advantages: light to carry
Disadvantages: smoking

...I was in need of a small, lightweight cleaner to use upstairs so when I saw the Dirt Devil in a local store I bought one because I knew the name and thought it would be reliable. I was initially very impressed with the appearance and suction. It was only used in the bedrooms & bathroom but very soon seemed to lose its suction power. I told my husband who tried to pull it round the room while cleaning (he's more energetic than I) and the wheel fell off. When the wheel was replaced I resumed cleaning as usual until Christmas Eve when I was a little worried to hear a strange noise followed by the whole casing glowing red. I turned it off at the wall socket and watched the smoke rise into the air as I said goodbye. It was a bit of a problem to use because the head needed to be used at a certain angle but considering I hadn't even filled... Read review

Advantages: 12 amps of power for super suction!
Disadvantages: The size is the only downfall here

...How many vacuums can a person go through before they find the one that works just right? Well, for me I went through one to many. I wanted a bag less vacuum with a lot of power and for a fairly good price. I shopped around and compared prices and finally I chose the Dirt Devil Vision Model 086925. Having an ever shedding Dalmatian and a long haired cat, I needed something to get up all that hair and with the 12 amps of power I get from the Dirt Devil; I have finally won the pet hair war. For $149.00 I definitely got my moneys worth. The Swivel Glide is loaded with extras like a non-slip handle because you never know when you may lose your grip and your vacuum and a headlight for when you get the desire to clean in the dark and of course places not well lighted in your home. The dirt container is large enough for whole house cleaning... Read review

Advantages: compact and effective
Disadvantages: noisy

...For less than £30 the Dirt Devil hand held mains vacuum cleaner and Tools comes in very useful. When there are stairs to be cleaned then you could do worse than to buy this little machine. A handy little vacuum cleaner that even a small child can use to clean up after themselves. I bought this to help with the cleaning of stairs, it has been an excellent investment. To clean the stairs this can be plugged in at the bottom and then reach the top and even clean the landing. The tools come in very useful when there is an awkward corner. My stairs have never looked as clean before and it is a lot easier than using a standard vacuum cleaner and balancing it on the stairs. The children, with this easily clean up small spills in the house as it is not to big and easy for them to direct. If the car needs a valet this is the tool to use... Read review

Advantages: Excellant suction power
Disadvantages: None

...We live in a flat and recently got a kitten who makes a lot of mess on a daily basis with her cat litter by flicking out the litter onto the carpet. It was becoming a work-up getting the vacuum cleaner out of the cupboard every day to hoover up her mess so I decided to look into a getting a hand held vacuum cleaner. I discovered there were many hand held cleaners which you charge up on a unit which you plug into the mains but which loose suction power as you are hoovering. I was a little sceptical anyway with hand held cleaners as I had heard their suction power wasn't very stong. Eventually I came across the dirt devil handy zip which cost £28 and plugs straight into the mains so you don't have to worry about power loss. I was extremally pleased with it's suction - it picked up all the litter stones from the carpet... Read review
