Red Devil Cleaner

Advantages: Cost and efficiency
Disadvantages: A little lumbering, filters a pain to clean

...I have had this cleaner now over 9 months and now having just had to empty it yet again, it has moved me to comment!! The cleaner itself works fine, it has a business like head and apparent flexibility. However the size of the head prevents getting into awkward corners and tight spaces, it could easily be more compact. That said the suction power and head configuration is effective in picking up household dust and dirt. It is a little lumbering to trail behind you, preferring straight lines to the reality of dodging around furniture. However its the bagless aspect which is most frustrating. Whilst a dirt trap and a filter may seem appealing (and even spare filters are supplied with the cleaner), the removal and clean up of same is a work up in itself. The pictures show just rinsing said filter under the tap. In your dreams...

Review of Dirt Devil DDCYL2 Bagless Cylinder

Dirt Devil MVP Swivel Glide Vacuum

Advantages: Brought up dirt I didn't know I had.
Disadvantages: Harder to push than I thought.

...We moved to America around 15 years ago with only 2 suitcases, and shipped 3 tea chests. These were personal items, and arrived 3 months later. We bought a Eureka upright vacuum and it was still going strong 9 months ago. We had seen on television and in the newspapers, bagless vacuum cleaners with hepa filters. We decided that when they came below $200 (£130) we would purchase one. We love to go to "Sams Club", part of the Wal-mart chain, and they had a great offer on. Dirt Devil MVP swivel glide Vacuum M086420 for $179 (£115). The best part of this deal included a free Dirt Devil corded hand vac worth $39 (£25). We jumped with delight and purchased it immediately. My husband loves to hoover. My friends laugh when I say this, as it is a brand name, they say vacuuming. He tried it out. We have 1,700 square feet of area. He...

Review of Dirt Devil DDCYL6

Dirt Devil Pet Patrol...what a (fallen?) angel!

Advantages: Makes quick work of the stairs
Disadvantages: Only seems to be avail at Argos. See updates.

...get those pesky pet hairs and give your carpet a 'deep clean'). These are easy to use and you can see how good the whole system is by the amount of dust and other unsavoury stuff that accumulates in the see through, bagless dust container. The dust container is also easy to empty and clean. For the technical amongst you, you will be pleased to learn that the Dirt Devil Pet Patrol hand held rechargeable vacuum cleaner has a batter voltage of 10.8 volts and the charger input voltage is 220 to 240 V. It also has a high efficiency cyclonic system. I would like to tell you how much it weighs but as my scales (both kitchen and bathroom) are packed for the move, I can't! However, I can tell you that when boxed it weighs 3 kgs. All in all, it is great! I must say, based on my first use of it this afternoon when it took less than five...

Review of Dirt Devil DD109

It's a devil alright

Advantages: Looks nice
Disadvantages: Useless

...Dirt Devil is a brand many of us have heard about and simply put to the back of our minds. Unlike Remington, Dyson, Sony they somehow just don't stay prominent when one is considering purchasing. This could be due to the fact that they are for the most part at least largely unseen. Yet if you google Dirt Devil you'll get loads of results. I was looking for a small handheld vacuum primarily for the car, and after doing little research stumbled upon a really good deal. £16.99 for this little rechargeable Dirt Devil. The unit comes complete with a charger which easily plugs into the socket on the Devil. The packaging is adequate, but on reflection it did give a little hint as to the contents. It comes with a few basic tools including that thing with the thin end. It is bagless but does have a little cloth filter...

Review of Dirt Devil DD 039

Better The Devil You Know

Advantages: Excellent suction, cheap
Disadvantages: Heavy, noisy

...and buy a more expensive machine. Again purse strings prevailed and the machine I ended up with was a Dirt Devil DD9002. Opinion on Dirt Devil vacuum cleaners seems to vary dramatically, it would seem people either love them or hate them (a bit like Marmite but with more suction power!) Dirt Devil ?Rascal? hand vacuuming units are well known and I?ve always found them really reliable, but I hadn?t realised that Dirt Devil make full sized machines. Of course the old adage ?You get what you pay for? certainly comes into play here ? this machine is no Dyson but for £78 you shouldn?t be expecting Dyson quality and personally I love it. The two things I was looking for in a vacuum cleaner were that it was bagless and upright?oh and not made by Sanyo after my last vacuum cleaner experience. This little baby fits the bill on those counts but...

Review of Dirt devil

A Devil of a Hoover!

Advantages: see op
Disadvantages: see op

...Like all the people who seem to write vacuum cleaner reviews on Ciao, I had a Dyson, but with excessive cleaning and general wear and tear, my Dyson began to fall to pieces and I decided to treat myself to a new cleaner. I say treat but as I have very little funds for nice new hoovers I had to settle with what I could afford. I went along to my local Comet, where prices are said to be low all the year round. I looked at their aisle full of fancy and dare I say, quite sexy little numbers!! All colours. I could have coordinated my hoover with my whole house if Id wished!! Unfortunately sex appeal costs and I was left with the choice of one hoover - The Dirt Devil DD6114 Upright Vacuum Cleaner. DD6114 is classic Dirt Devil colour, bright red with black attachments. It is a pretty basic cleaner with hose attachment and upholstery brushes...

Review of Dirt devil

Dirt Devil Vision M086925 Vacuum

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...

Little Dirt Devil Does A Great Job

Advantages: easy to use and easy to clean up and store
Disadvantages: none

...Recently with all the home cleaning we have been doing I rediscovered one of my most valuable cleaning tools. Now you may ask how I rediscovered it? Really there is a simple answer to that question. I was cleaning and I found it! Lol!!! At any rate I am glad that I found this little household tool because I had forgotten all of its uses. And making our cleaning jobs easier is a good thing! Dirt Devil® Ultra This is a very handy little vacuum because you can take it wherever you go inside the home or in your vehicle. In fact we have two of them. (I really did some cleaning to have found both of them!) One will stay in my Blazer so that when I am visiting somewhere and need something to do I can always clean it out! Or, if one of the children makes a mess I can use it for that purpose as well. I would suppose that it is great...

Review of Dirt devil

What an awkward little devil

Advantages: Not too expensive, looks nice
Disadvantages: awful at picking up, quite heavy

...When my husband left me and he took the Dyson, I had to come to terms with my loss. The vacuum cleaner!! Well, I hadn't got enough money to buy another Dyson- they are very pricey - so I did a bit of asking around and some research and decided to go for a Dirt Devil. Besides it looked nice. Hmmm.Bad move. WHAT IS IT LIKE Lovely red colour, quite tall with a circular see- through canister on the front that you take off to empty when it gets full. Quite wide flat front. The expanding hose comes up from a socket at the bottom and winds over a little handle at the back, and then plugs in at the other side. When you want to use the hose and attachments to reach things or places to clean, it comes out and you attach extensions and fittings to it. Sounds funny but as soon as you see it you know how it works. It's not particularly...
