This little vacuum is great for around the house small pick-ups and I also use it in my car. It works as promissed and has great suction. I would buy this again. Great price from Amazon also.Customer Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this as a replacement for a Dust Buster I had for ten years. At 7.2v it has twice the power and it performs much better. I am very happy with it. My only complaint is that it has recharging cord that must be disconnected before using, whereas the old "Buster" had a charging station from which I only had to lift it to use. Minor issue. I have not used it for picking up any liquid so I am not sure how well that works. I doubt that I will ever use it very much for that feature. For the price and with the free shipping this was a great purchase.Customer Review: Had A Short Life

Summary: 5 Stars
We have had this about a month. This is great for cleaning up small messes. We have it in with our cat litter boxes and it works great for picking up the cat litter! It has lots of suction for the size. We also have wood floors, and it is great for going around and sucking up dust bunnies without having to get out the big vac. The bunnies seem to collect in corners anyway (one thing about wood floors and kids/pets - you can vacuum daily and the dust bunnies will still be there).
For the car, it has plenty of power, but not quite enough battery time. The box says that it will last about 8-12 minutes on a charge, and it is right. We have a minivan, so it takes longer than a sedan.
We have not tried it on wet spills. I usually just go get a wash cloth for those. It really doesnt hold that much anyway.
No bags to replace is also great. It has a sponge that works as the filter, and you can just rinse it out in the sink after emptying the vacuum. You DO need to let it dry out before you use it again though.
I imagine that the batteries will only last about a year, maybe two, just like our coordless phones. But the vac comes with instructions to replace the batteries, and it looks easy. At under $20 for the vac, it probably isn't worth it though. Just buy a new vac!
Other reviews I have read say you need more volts, and I wasn't sure this would work good. After trying it, I think it is more than enough for what I use it for. For a bigger job, I get out the big vac.
