Dirt Devil Scorpion Handheld Vacuum Cleaner, Corded, Small, Dry Hand Held Vac With Cord, SD20005RED, Red

What a great purchase! I am a 67 year old, retired apartment dweller that likes to keep my place clean and I just wasnt happy with the way my regular vacuum cleaned using the accessories, so I purchased the Scorpion. The first day I went crazy around my apartment. I pulled all the furniture to the center of the room and went to sweeping around the baseboards. I had to clean out the dust filter three times just in the living room! This little vacuum has tons of suction and picked up stuff I never knew was there. Then I did all the furniture. I usually drag the shop vac out to sweep the car, but no more. The Scorpion did a great job except the flip down nozzle is a little fat to reach down into some tight spots. That wasnt a big deal though. It sucked up gravel easily. I couldnt find anything wrong with this little vacuum. There were some comments about the odor and smelling hot. Not to worry. I used mine for a total of three hours the first weekend and that smell went away after a short time. I would guess it was just an over abundance of lube on the motor bearings or something. Others complained of the noise. Noise equals power. It isnt THAT bad. The cord is long enough for any job around the house, but not handy for storage. I coil it up and stick it through the handle. What hasnt been stated is that it has a place on the back of the handle so the unit can be hung on a hook. That is pretty handy. I am going to purchase extra filters because I had to dust the first one out several times and rinsed it twice. Snapping in a clean one would save some time when you are into the cleaning mood as I seldom am!! I highly recommend the Scorpion. It came very close to 5 stars!!

Best little vacuum you can buy Gets all the cat hair off of the sofa I absolutely love this Hand Vac

Picked the one with a cord intentionally to last longer than cordless. Bought this to vac up the loose litter by the litter box. Works great, sucks it right up. Dont have a problem with it blowing debris from the side vents like some commented. Do wish it had a wider opening to cover more than an inch wide space at a time. I reached out on the dirt devil website and chatted with a representative who told me there is no other attachment that will work with the scorpion model. Wonder if the scorpion+ with the carpet attachment would work on hard floor to suck up loose litter? Will continue to use near litter box, and in car seats and floorboard, and to suck up inside furniture cushions.

This works great for grandma as she struggles to push a heavier vacuum around. She is able to clean up debris including most of the down feathers shed by her birds.

Powerful little device. We are in the midwest, invaded by Asian lady bugs Suck them up is major part of fight. I have 6-8 vacuum apparatus up until this one, I compared their performance by body count. This one leaves only porridge.

One thing I have discovered is it has much more suction power then a cordless one

I really like the suction power of this little vacuum. It is kind of mediocre to use it without the extension or the hose adapter because of the distance from a surface to the opening. I dont know why it was built this way but as long as you know that its best to use it with the attachments you will be happy. Since it is small is easy to get to tight places especially inside cars. My wife cleaned her big suv with it and really liked the suction and cleaning ability of this vacuum. I cleaned my small car and really like the maneuverability with the hose attachment. It did not get extremely hot even though I used it for about an hour. This is my first small vacuum so I dont have any other experience to compare it with, but I was hesitant to buy it because I believe my big shop vac would be better but this is easier to maneuver, take out, and clean. I dont know how long the filters will last but they do get dirty fast. In the hour that I used it it got very dirty and I had to clean it before also since my wife had finished using it. The suction power however I believe did not change.

I like everything about this vacuum. I clean inside my car and everywhere in my home!

Although I have a Dirt Devil, I was looking for a vacuum that would maneuver more easily in my automobile. This portable vacuum was the perfect solution for my needs. I am able to reach the tighter spaces in my vehicle that I was not able to vacuum with my Dirt Devil. Lightweight and portable make this vacuum a must for keeping my vehicle clean.

I bought this for my fireplace and the woodstove, to clean up as I go... Works perfectly for the dust and bits of bark & wood that used to be everywhere. Zoom! It WORKS! I am especially stoked about this fireplace vacuum because I purchased a different one from a store - and it had ZERO power. well, not exactly zero, but very close. This one has POWER. I love it!
