Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Dirt Devil M083414 Extreme Power Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Customer Review: Very happy with Power Stick Vacuum
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this vacuum. It sweeps carpets much better than I thought it would and is great on hard floors. It doesn't dig deep into carpets like a plug in vacuum does, but it picks up pet hairs and surface dirt really well. I highly recommend this product.Customer Review: GOOD VALUE FOR THE MONEY
Summary: 4 Stars
THE DIRT DEVIL EXTREME POWER STICK VACUUM IS AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT FOR IN- BETWEEN CLEANINGS AND PICK-UPS. IT IS LIGHTWEIGHT, MANEUVERABLE AND HAS SUITABLE SUCTION FOR HARDWOOD FLOORS. THE POWER BRUSH FEATURE IS GREAT FOR CARPETS. THE BATTERY LIFE IS SUFFICIENT FOR 10 TO 15 MINUTES OF CLEANING AND THE VISABLE DIRT STORAGE ALLOWS ONE TO SEE WHEN THE VAC REQUIRES EMPTYING. THE RECHARGE UNIT IS COMPACT ENOUGH FOR OUT OF THE WAY STORAGE. A GOOD VALUE FOR THE MONEY FOR SUPPLEMENTAL CLEANING. Customer Review: Handy
Summary: 3 Stars
It has kind of a high pitched squeal (still scares the dog like the 12 amphoover windtunnel i have lugging around) when its running and the engine sounds like its going to die when I use it. It was charged when I got it & hasnt gone dead yet. Picks up pet hair well. A lot handier to pick up & use in a hurry without tripping over cords. The thing I hate....is that to empty the cup (which it seems like you have to clean after every use or it sounds weak) you have to stick your fingers in the dirty filter to lift it out to empty the cup. Stupid design. It looks nasty after less than 10 uses. I almost returned it the first time I used it because I couldnt open it.Customer Review: Great little Vacuum
Summary: 5 Stars
I have mostly hardwood or tile floors in my home. This vacuum not only picks up dirt that my bigger vacuum left behind, but it's very light and easier to handle. The charge seems to last every time I use it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.Customer Review: Nice product but not so much for kitty fluff...
Summary: 4 Stars
I was looking for an inexpensive, cordless sweeper so I didn't have to drag out the big vacuum or try to chase the fluff bunnies around with a broom. Our house is almost completely hard flooring and we have seven cats so the latter scenario has been commonplace.
Unfortunately, I don't think this vac is the best for what I was wanting for several reasons. One, it doesn't get right up along the wall nor does it have attachments to help it do so. Since this is where the fluff tends to collect, it means I have to get my broom out anyhow to sweep these things to the middle of the floor. On the other hand, at least I don't have to try to catch it in a dustpan. Second, the dust reservoir is incredibly small. Hand vac small. It looks bigger because of the design of the filter but it is really only the bottom quarter of the "tank". Not a problem if you're just using it for spot cleaning the dirt just tracked in but the kitty fluff takes up a little more space and means emptying it at least once during a run. Last, the kitty fluff wreaks havoc on the beater bar. This is going to be true on pretty much any model but seems to be more so in this case. I spend what seems like a third of my cleaning time removing things from the roller.
This all said, I still give it four stars because it does work somewhat for my uses and very well for more conventional uses. If you're looking for something just to pick up the little spills and such, especially for carpet, it should serve you well. When I cut my son's hair, I let it all fall onto the rug and this sucker (pun intended) picked up every strand without a problem. On the hard flooring, it easily gets the dust and dirt but is less effective on small items as it tends to try to push things around before picking them up. Turning it on the carpet setting so the roller bar could help push things in the right direction seemed to help.
