Dirt Devil Simpli Stik 3-in-1 Vacuum Cleaner, Lightweight, Bagless, Ideal for Dorms, Apartments and Other Small Spaces, Corded Vacuum Cleaners for Home Use

This vacuum does all I intended it to. I'm VERY pleased with it. I purchased my first one a few weeks ago. It was for my daughter who was going off to college and would be sharing an apartment with 3 other girls. I did not want to purchase an expensive vacuum. I saw this Dirt Devil for under $20 and decided to give it a try. I tested the vacuum out at home and ended up loving it for little jobs around the house. So I bought myself one. First of all, this will NOT do the job of a full size and full powered vacuum but then again, I don't think that is it's purpose. I purchased this mainly to use in my laundry room and kitchen in place of a broom and dustpan. I keep my cat's litterbox in the laundry room and she manages to track litter from that room and in to the hallway. I would constantly sweep up but it seemed I never got ALL the litter up and was always stepping on some leftover piece. The kitchen was also a room with lots of "stuff" on it's floor. Leaves from outside, crumbs, etc. I also felt I missed things. Most likely, the broom just didn't catch everything and debris would be left on the floor. This vacuum works great for those areas. The vacuum is very lightweight (about 1-2 lbs.) and easy to carry around. It's a lot better than pulling out the Dyson vacuum which is big and heavy. I use the Dirt Devil every day in the laundry room and kitchen. One added bonus (for me anyhow) is that I can clean my floor mats and rugs with this thing too. The Dyson sucked those rugs right up and I'd end up unraveling rug strings from the beater bar! So to sum it up, this Dirt Devil vacuums my throw rugs, it cleans the tile floors great (it gets up all those annoying bits of litter) and it even works well on our carpet. Admittedly, the Dyson does a much better job on carpet and is a lot more powerful, but for little jobs when you don't want to lug out a heavy, bulky, full sized vacuum, this really does the job well. For costing less than $20 and for using it every day, I love this little vacuum. It is also very easy to clean. When I take out the filter cup I just wipe it with a used dryer sheet and it takes all the lint off. Bigger things that get picked up like the litter pieces just get dumped from the container. I have not tried it as a hand held dust buster type vacuum but I'm sure it would work just as well since it works great as an upright. And lastly, my daughter also loves the vacuum. Cleans up her bathroom floor and even picks up stuff from the shag carpet that is in her bedroom.

Es una aspiradora de batalla. Es muy sencilla de operar. Tiene muy buena potencia y el filtro es fácil de limpiar y remplazar.

Floor cleaner part had kink. Kink and discolouration. Still using it however dissatisfied.

This is my go to vacuum and has been for many years. I got my first one about 20 years ago to clean up dry spills my kids made. The vacuum has been upgraded some over the years, better technology and all that, but is still in essence the same great product at the same great price. The suction has gotten much better over the years and the addition of the removable stick is a very welcome one! The edge tool provided is so helpful. This vacuum is light and easy to assemble. It works great on low and no pile flooring but not so great on high pile carpeting. You can use it to quickly get crumbs off your table or counter but moisture is its nemesis so be wary of that. The fully enclosed cannister is perfect for sucking up beads, sequens and glitter that you can then reuse if the canister and filter are kept clean. (For this price, I've always had one dedicated specifically to crafts for this exact reason.) Cobwebs are no match for this tiny beast and the stick makes it easy to reach those high corners. The lightweight body and long cord of this vacuum makes it the perfect tool for cleaning your stairs and baseboards. The filters are inexpensive and often come in multipacks. I can generally get 6 months of daily use out of a single filter. The filters *can* be rinsed in a pinch but must be air dried completely before using again. The cannister and edge tool can absolutely go through the dishwasher, the wide head and motor cannot (obviously.) I wouldn't recommend this as a primary pet hair control tool, the suction is not strong enough to remove the hair thats embedded deeply into fabric and the plastic used to make it attracts the pet hair to the wrong area of the vacuum. (You end up with more pet hair on the outside of the vacuum than in the cannister in my experience.) I would suggest making sure you empty the cannister and brush off the filter every time you use it for optimal longevity and operation. This vacuum stands on its own using the wide head, is light enough to be hung on a command hook and the stick is just the right size to fit into a pressure clamp broom holder, making it easy to store even in a small dorm. This is all around a great vacuum and I recommend it to everyone.
