Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dirt Devil 08225 Scorpion Quick-Flip Turbo Handheld Vacuum CleanerCustomer Review: Very high powered little vacuum! Summary: 5 Stars
The turbo brush head on this vacuum is great for getting pet hair off the couch!
I bought this hand held vacuum primarily to use at sucking dirt and dust out of cracks and corners, and to get pet hair off of my furniture. I sweep the larger areas of my floors, so I no longer needed the big old carpet vacuum that I'd had for a while (and since I took out my carpets, all I'd use that one for was to use the hose attachment to suck up corner dust). All I wanted was something small that I could carry around to get at areas where my broom wouldn't reach. This fit the bill perfectly.
The first thing I noticed when I turned this vacuum on was the power! You literally feel it jump alive when you turn it on. It is pretty loud, but I think this is a fair trade off for how powerful the suction is. I ran it lightly over my keyboard, and all the dust was instantly gone. No need to buy the keyboard attachment kit! It works fine on its own!
I opted to get the spinning brush head, and I am glad I did! No more cleaning my couch over and over with a lint roller, or feebly brushing at it with the stupid brush hose attachment on my old vacuum. This little vacuum sucked most of the hair off, and the lively spinning brush made short work of anything that was left. A word of caution: if your couch has loose fabric on it like a sheet or sofa cover, the loose fabric can get sucked inside slightly and slow things down. But if you just simply pull the fabric tight and lightly run the spinning brush over it, you won't have any problems. The turbo brush attachment comes open so that you can easily untangle any long hair that might get wound around the brush.
The only downsides to this vacuum is that the bagless dust collecting cup can be a little messy to empty (I just remove the whole front part, carry it to the trash, and empty it over the trash). The suction is so powerful that hair and dust is literally stuck to the filter and needs to be picked or tapped off. But, most hand held vacuums are bagless and have the same messy emptying technique. I kept this vacuum at 5 stars because the dirt emptying issue isn't THAT much of an issue, and it's one that most vacuums have anyway. The vacuum certainly makes up for it in other areas.
A better cord wrap would have been nice, but the handle works well enough. I clip both ends of the shoulder strap to the back of the vacuum and then just hang it on a hook in my closet. Perfect!
