Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy the companionship of pets without having to live in a house full of pet hair thanks to this handheld vacuum cleaner from Dirt Devil. Designed specifically for pet owners, the 7 amp unit features a powerful motorized brush that removes embedded dirt and lifts stubborn pet hair better than suction alone. Use it to clean stairs, furniture, and upholstery--it even works great for cleaning up kitty litter and pet-food spills. The included five-piece tool set contains a crevice tool, an extension wand, a dusting brush, a 24-inch flexible hose, and a special pet-hair upholstery brush. The HEPA filtration traps up to 99.9% of common household allergens-- including pet dander. The user-friendly bagless dirt cup empties easily into the trash, with no need to continually purchase new bags. Other highlights include a clean-air system with motorguard, a 20-foot power cord, a comfort-grip handle, a metal nozzle guard, and lightweight construction to ensure smooth maneuverability. The vacuum cleaner measures approximately 13-2/5 by 9-1/2 by 9-3/5 inches and comes with a two-year limited warranty on the motor and parts.

All right...here's the skinny.
Two weeks ago I ordered a Dyson "Animal" handheld from Amazon after agonizing about which handheld to buy. I need something for my carpeted steps. My little Kone handheld wasn't doing the job, and my big Dyson is too bulky to maneuver up and down the steps. The Dyson handheld pulled up that cat hair like whoa.
But the Dyson has this stupid, stupid design feature, which is that there's no on/off switch. Instead it has a trigger-like thing, which you have to keep held down in order to keep the vacuum powered on. If you let go then it shuts off. Trying to maneuver that heavy handheld around the steps without letting go of the trigger was near impossible. I emailed Dyson about it (surely there must have been a trigger lock somewhere?) but when they failed to answer I sent it back to Amazon and ordered this Dirt Devil.
The Dirt Devil does just as good a job as the Dyson, AND it has a proper on/off switch. The cord is long enough that I can reach from the base of the stairs to the landing, and then I take it out, plug it in at the top of the steps, and do the part from the landing to the upstairs hallway. The Dirt Devil is really loud, but I do it when no one else is home so that hardly matters. The only place where the Dyson was better is that its nozzle was narrower. I can't turn the Dirt Devil sideways to do the stair risers, because the brush is wide and the stair above overhangs the riser part. But I can do short strokes up and down the riser instead of going across. This is a fine machine and I'm very, very happy with it.
Just for the record: Dyson finally responded to my email with a "Thanks for the suggestion of a trigger lock"! They said they have over 300 engineers and scientists evaluating customer suggestions like mine and will look into it. I can't believe that with a team of over 300 engineers and scientists nobody tested that thing to see how ridiculous it is to hold a trigger down while you vacuum.

I like the suction on this little handheld vacuum cleaner. It really picks up.
What I don't like about it, however, is the very small dirt cup. I have a large dog, and I have to empty the cup every 4th or 5th step when he's shedding heavily.
It also gets very hot, and doesn't really get into the corner of the stair. I've tried the attachments, but could not get them to work well with the lack of instructions that came with it.
All in all, it's a good handheld, but it's not perfect.

When I first looked for this on Amazon, it was not available, so I bought it somewhere else. I love it. I have 3 vacuum cleaners but nothing would really get all the pets hair off my dark carpet and sofa.The Purpose for Pets worked like magic. After taking it out of the box, my capet and sofa were clean in 10 minutes.
