Dirt Devil 08225 Scorpion Quick-Flip Turbo Handheld Vacuum Cleaner Review

Dirt Devil 08225 Scorpion Quick-Flip Turbo Handheld Vacuum Cleaner
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's a powerful vacuum. It sucks dust and hair out of my carpet, crumbs too. It's small & convenient, I will probably use this more often than use a bulky vacuum.

Keep in mind that this vacuum is design for vacuuming a small area not the whole house because the sucking hole is small and it's handheld. This little machine can not last vacuuming the whole house without overheating.

I give it 4 stars because emptying the dirt cup is hell. It's bagless so you have to open it to empty. When you open it, dirt splashes everywhere. I find that all handheld vacuums are bagless. They got to think of a better way to empty it.

Product Description:
With its powerful 7 amp motor and easy-to-maneuver design, this handheld vacuum cleaner works great for on-the-go pickups and fast cleaning of every day messes and dry spills. The unit's on-board Quick Flip crevice tool cleans hard-to-reach areas like between couch cushions and along baseboards, while its removable, turbo brush nozzle effectively lifts and traps embedded dirt and stubborn pet hair from all types of surfaces. Other attachments include a 30-inch blow-molded hose, an upholstery brush, and a shoulder strap for comfortable transport. Even more, the cleaner's easy-to-empty bagless dirt cup keeps hands away from dirt, while its standard filtration helps deliver cleaner air exhaust. Other details include a 1-1/2-inch-wide nozzle, a long 16-foot power cord, and lightweight construction at just under 3-1/4 pounds. The handheld vacuum cleaner measures approximately 14 by 4-1/2 by 5 inches.

Bissell Lift-Off MultiCyclonic Pet Upright Vacuum with Detachable Canister, Bagless, 89Q9 Review

Bissell Lift-Off MultiCyclonic Pet Upright Vacuum with Detachable Canister, Bagless, 89Q9
Average Reviews:

Must-have features:
- Suction power.Great suction power.
- Lift-off feature.For use on stairs.
- Bagless.
- Dedicated on-off switch for brush.To vacuum wood floor without brush.
- Brush automatically turns off when unit is at upright position.Save brush and carpet wear-and-tear when using attachments.
- Furniture protection rubber guard.

Nice-to-have features, but not absolutely needed:
- Pet brush."Pet" model means unit come with a Turbo Pet Brush attachment.Pet brush has rubber claws, which grab hair as you rake the surface of carpet or sofa.It is somewhat useful, but not to die for.Buy the Lift-Off models only if you want the must-have features.You can buy the Turbo Pet Brush attachment separately for $29.

Useless features (just marketing):
- Head light.

I was interested in buying the Bissell Lift-Off, but there is lack of info on the web to compare the 2 Bissell Lift-off models: Multiclylonic (89Q9) and Revolution.Rather than just a generic review, I will try to describe the difference between Lift-Off Revolution and Multicyclonic.Their sucking power seems similar.The visible differences are (1) dirt container, (2) upper tank right above the dirt container, and color.

(1) Dirt Container.Multicylconic and Revolution has different design.Small advantage to Multicyclonic.Multicylonic has 2 compartments; 1 cylinder in center and 1 large outer compartment.Revolution has single main compartment, plus 2 additional small dust chambers that extend out from chamber.I don't see any special impact or effect to the various compartments.But one thing I don't like on the Revolution is the 2 additional dust chambers with removable inserts, which are a mess to handle and clean.

The dirt container is the same size on both units.These units suck up so much hair and dust that the dirt containers need to be emptied after cleaning couple rooms.I have 2 short hair cats.The hair will clump together and rotate in the dirt container.As the container fills up (maybe 1/2 to 3/4 full), some hair will remain in the upper tank and not drop down into the dirt container.

(2) Upper tank.This is where the 2 units vary the most.Overall, I give the advantage to Multicyclonic, due to ease of cleaning, particularly with less hair trapped in upper tank.Revolution does have 1 added feature: upper tank can be removed, which is less messy to clean up.

- Upper tank filter size.Multicylonic has more open space in upper tank right above the dirt container.That means less likely for hair to get trapped.Revolution has large filter component that leaves a small gap to the compartment wall.Hair is more likely to get trapped.You can read the review for Revolution.And this is a major complaint for some users.Big advantage for Multicyclonic over Revolution here.

- Filter material.The upper tank on Multicylonic uses only plastic components, whereas Revolution has foam filter in upper tank.Both can be washed and rinsed out, but plastic is just easier and faster to clean.Another advantage for Multicyclonic.

- Removable upper tank on Revolution.The upper tank on Revolution is removable, but fixed on Multicyclonic.The positive for Revolution is that I can remove both upper tank and dirt container and empty them in the garbage can.On the Multicylonic, after bottom dirt container is removed, some remaining dust can drop down from the upper tank right onto the vacuum body.

Product Description:
Equipped with a multi-cyclonic system and a powerful 12 amp motor, this bagless upright vacuum cleaner provides maximum suction power for thoroughly cleaning the home from top to bottom. The unit effectively removes pet hair, dust, dirt, and dry spills from both carpets and bare-floor surfaces, while its stretch hose and onboard attachments make above-floor cleaning a snap. Use the Pet Hair TurboBrush for upholstery and stairs, the crevice tool to access narrow spaces, and the combination upholstery/dusting brush to clean tabletops, bookshelves, furniture, and more.
In addition, the unit features a removable canister vacuum cleaner that detaches easily for convenient cleaning of stairs and hard-to-reach areas where pets like to sleep. The unit also supplies a wide 15-inch cleaning path, dual-edge cleaning, seven adjustable-height options, a rotating-brush power switch, a motor-protection system, a pre-motor filter, and a HEPA media post-motor filter. Its HEPA filter traps over 99.9 percent of pet dander, dust mites, pollens, and ragweed for cleaner, more breathable indoor air. Other highlights include a secondary cyclone chamber, an easy-empty dirt container, a soft bumper to protect furniture and baseboards from marking, a wide-beam headlight, a 30-foot power cord, and a quick-release cord wrap. The upright vacuum cleaner measures 13-1/2 by 15 by 44 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
