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

Extremely powerful suction. Great for cleaning up dust and pet hair. 5/5. Cord is decently long but sometimes not long enough for where I need to get to, but I knew what I was getting into when I bought a corded vacuum. Cannot over-emphasize how powerful this suction is.

I love this little vacuum. I specifically wanted some thing corded so it would be stronger and last a long time. I’ve had issues with cordless vacuums dying way too soon and become unusable because it relied on the battery. I expect this vacuum to last many years, unlike numerous cordless ones I’ve had. The suction is also really strong since it is corded. Cordless vacuums are renowned for not being as strong of a suction. I’m also really impressed by the length of the cord. I can reach it across my whole room and if I needed to go further i put one of my extension cords on it that I got for cheap at Walmart. I also don’t have issues with the contents spilling out when I have it turned off like I’ve had with previous handheld vacuums. I am so excited that this vacuum works so well, especially for the price point. Very impressed. I expect this vacuum to last me many many years.

I am pleasantly surprised by the powerful suction of this little handheld vac. I have had other cordless handheld vacs before and wound up getting rid of them because of poor suction. This little Dirt Devil Scorpion does have a cord, but it is quite long, and I can honestly say that I would gladly trade the cordless function of other mini vacs for the power of this corded vac. In other words, this Dirt Devil Scorpion proves that a cordless feature is totally not worth giving up the power of this corded mini vac. This item is great for a quick pickup or touch-up if you dont want to lug out your big bulky canister or upright vac. I highly recommend this product.

I would say this was exactly what I needed it for if it didnt blow everything all over the floor if Im not careful. I bought it to vacuum up my swept piles of dirt,dust, & dog hair my house accumulates daily. I thought this would be easier than sweeping each stair as well, but my back disagreed with that short cut. The suction is great and surprisingly it sucks up way way more than I thought it would before getting full. The problem is the thing blows my piles of swept hair,dust, & dirt all over the place if Im not careful holding it... this doesnt make it useless bc I still am able to get the piles sucked up like I intended to do with it, I just have to make sure I hold the thing without the air vent blowing in same direction of pile which isnt that big of a deal. The canister empties well & the filter is washable & thats worked out fine so far. I am sure glad I read most reviews before buying this otherwise I wouldve definitely broke the extended red piece already. Be careful with that part. I barely even use it bc its so delicate.

Just used it for the first time on my carpeted stairs, which I had vacuumed a week earlier with another vacuum. The dirt cup was almost full—-so much better at picking up dirt than my old vacuum. The filter is rinsable, which is another plus. I had to use a 6 foot extension cord, but that wasn’t a big deal. Overall, this vacuum is a great product for a very reasonable price!

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

Cleaning the car & carpeted stairs

does a pretty good job on cleaning out the car

Suction power is good and filter easy to clean. Vacuum is heavier than expected, very loud, and cord was too short to reach middle of my stairs from either end.

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!!
