Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Cordless so it's convenient for cleaning vehicles, closet shelves, and other remote and hard-to-reach places, this sleek hand vacuum mounts on a wall in its recharging unit and then delivers 432 watts (3.6 amps) of cleaning power for up to 12 minutes without recharging. Made of gleaming hard, black plastic, it weighs just 2-1/2 pounds and measures 18 inches long. It's bagless, capturing dirt in a cup that unlatches for emptying, and the cup includes a filter that may be washed. A crevice tool for cleaning seat cushions and other narrow spaces rides along in a storage slot on the back. Slipping it out of the slot and attaching it to the vacuum's working end is literally a snap. --Fred Brack

1.0 out of 5 stars How do I say this nicely..., June 25, 2003

...DON'T!

I have been very patient with this product. I have had it for weeks, but waited to use it in different environments before 'judging' it. It makes a lot of noise like it's doing work, but when you look (even in direct contact with the rug) the dirt doesn't move. Air just blows out the sides. I feel like I really wasted my money. I'm told it can't be returned, and that just upsets me.

I bought it primarily for use in my car. Before I got around to my car, I tried it on my rug/carpet - even hard surfaces. I still have to go over with my upright vacuum, hence, it's of no use to me. I have it permanently plugged into the wall behind a chair in my dining area. I'm going to have to move it, because when I see it I get upset.

I finally tried it in my car last weekend, I ended up literally picking up after it. Yes, I cleaned my car by hand. Picked up all the little pieces by hand, which was about 90% of the dirt that was there before I vacuumed. A brush and dust pan will do MUCH MUCH more than this product does. Anybody want to guess how much a brush and dust pan will cost them as opposed to this?

At that price, I wasn't expecting a powerhouse. I just needed something decent to keep my car looking alright, and get into little corners my upright can't. But to have virtually no sucking power, be it $5 or $25 - it's a waste. I'm really, really disappointed. I'll give it one star - for turning on and coming with its own charger.

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT ALL IT'S CRACKED UP TO BE, July 9, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Eureka 77A Boss Cordless Handheld Vacuum (Kitchen)

I BOUGHT THIS VACUUM BECAUSE IT HAD GOOD REVIEWS, WELL MAYBE I JUST GOT A DUD, BUT MINE DOESN'T WORK VERY WELL. IT'S BRAND NEW AND THE BATTERY DIES DURING THE SMALLEST JOBS. IT STARTS PULSATING AND THEN DIES. I FOLLOWED ALL DIRECTIONS IN CHARGING THE VACUUM, SO IT SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, BUT UNFORTUNATLY IT DOESN'T WORK. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE.

I went through 3 Dustbusters before getting this one, and it has lasted way longer than any other hand vac I've ever owned. The long nozzle is a nice touch for under the kitchen cabinets, sand in the corners of the stroller seat, and for vaccuuming my kids' belly buttons, which they clamor for every time I turn the thing on. Easy to clean, and a good price-- you need one!
