Hand held portable vacuum recommendations?
5/18/2018 at 1:55 PM

Have had a couple different brands now and neither one was really worth it. Looking for a good one if you have any recommendations ? Will use mostly to clean out the car and remove dog hair from the couch. .

I just physically lift my upright vacuum onto the couch, and use it to remove the dog hair. Works much better than my handheld (we have small hoover that came with our upright vacuum).

Same goes for the vehicle. I just lift out the mats and vacuum them on the driveway, lift the vacuum in to do the back of my SUV. Have a shop vac that use for the rest of the vehicle.

They all suck.

Seriously, you'll probably have to spend big money on something like a Dyson to get a decent hand vacuum.

the Dyson stic - yes, expensive, but you can take it apart to just use the hand and attachments and to do all quick clean up jobs. Great to take out to the vehicle.

Would not be without it.

No I bought a dyson over a year ago and used only 4 times then isn't functioning I am guessing it is the battery not lasting long as a review I read so Dyson cheap .

I use mine daily and sometimes more than once - cat hair. Picks up great.

Phone Dyson! They stand behind their product. If they can't fix it they will replace it.

have you taken it back, called Dyson?

I had an issue with my big Dyson and they sent me a brand new one. Great customer service.

Sorry OP we are off topic.
