Summary: Must buy 2008-11-30
Comment: I bought this vacuum for my car. I have used other cordless vacuums, but this is the best by far. Great suction. For the price it can't be beat.

Summary: Great suction! 2008-11-23
Comment: Although I have not used this product often, it has the best suction of any similar type of vacuum. The attachments are great for getting into small crevices and for vacuuming upholstery.

Summary: NOT an ultra-portable 2008-11-22
Comment: I've used this Dustbuster a few times now, and I can say that it's pros far outweigh the cons. First and foremost, this is NOT an ultra-portable Dustbuster. It is on the heavy and large size, and it uses a cord rather than battery. Depending on what you need/want, this might be a deal breaker. This review assumes you want a corded (therefore more powerful) machine.
This little guy has lots of power. The power of suction, from best to worst, is as follows: flip tool, regular, brush attachment. The brush attachment has nowhere near the power of the other two options, but since it has the brush at the end, you can use it to scrub at the surface and kick up the dust.
Yes, it's loud and generates a lot of "wind" coming out of the sides, but i am not bothered by these things.
The cord is very long and affords maximum portability.
The filter and dust container is pretty small, but since this is only a dust buster used in short burrsts, I haven't had any trouble with it. I haven't noticed any loss of power/suction that others have noted, but maybe I need to use it longer to see a difference.
overall, it's a great purchase for a great price. But if you need something smaller and lighter, I'd look at the lower powered battery operated alternatives.
