10) Hoover Platinum LINX Pet BH50030 Cordless Average User Rating: 4.

It's powered by a removable 18V Lithium Ion battery that provides fade free power.
Included are 3 attachments - A Power Head Brushroll that can be pivoted 25 degrees, a Pet Upholstery Tool which features three rubber blades for easy pet hair removal and a Deluxe Dusting Brush for cleaning delicate surfaces.
9) Dyson DC44 Animal MK2 Digital Slim Cordless Average User Rating: 4.
2 / 5 The Dyson DC44 Animal is perhaps the most feature packed and technological handheld vacuum cleaners designed for cleaning pet hair, as well as various types of surfaces.
It's the most power efficient cordless handheld vacuums due to its use of a digital motor that functions 3 times faster than conventional motors.
Dyson's patented Root Cyclone Technologyprovides no loss of suction and it also allows fora bagless and filter free device, saving you money on replacements.
Though a tad bit expensive, it does more than the rest and will last longer than most.
8) BISSELL Cleanview Deluxe 47R51 Corded Average User Rating: 4.
4 / 5 Simple yet effective, the BISSELL Cleanview Deluxe provides a hassle free cleaning experience.
It's powered by an 18 foot cord that is long enough to clean several rooms without unplugging, and it also provides consistent suction power.
The HEPA Media filter also plays a great role in trapping tiny harmful particles such as tobacco smoke, dust mite feces and pollen.
This handheld vacuum cleaner is lightweight, small and easy to use.
What is there not to like? 7) Dirt Devil Scorpion Corded Average User Rating: 4.
3 / 5 One of the most innovatively simple handheld vacuum cleaners I've seen is the Dirt Devil Scorpion.
It's trademark is its Quick-Flip crevice tool which allows you to quickly and easily clean corners, edges and confined areas.
It's also very powerful running with a 7 amp motor.
Its quick and easy use makes it ideal for cleaning vehicle interiors and small messes.
Also priced very reasonably, which makes it extremely popular among consumers.
6) Black & Decker DustBuster CHV1410L Cordless Average User Rating: 4.
4 / 5 The CHV1410L is one of Black & Decker's bestsellers from their popular range of DustBusters.
The reason being is that it provides great value for money by having a long run time of around 15-30 minutes, thanks to the use of a Lithium Ion battery.
It also incorporates Smart Charge Technology which means the device only charges when necessary, and as a result, it uses up to 50% less energy.
Its rotating nozzle and extending built-in crevice tool ensures any hard-to-reach area can be easily cleaned.
5) Carrand 94005AS AutoSpa Bagless Corded Auto-Vac Average User Rating: 4.
2 / 5 In my opinion, and many other users will agree, the Carrand 94005AS Auto-Vac is the best handheld vacuum cleaner for cleaning car interiors.
It has so many dedicated tools including a 40 inch flexible hose which rotates 360 degrees at the elbow, a squeegee, dash and console brush and a carpet / upholstery tool.
All attachments can be neatly stored at the back of the base.
Another excellent feature is its ability to blow debris or liquid away, a feature that I've not seen in any other handheld vacuum cleaner.
And with 550 watts of cleaning power, it is powerful to say the least.
4) Dirt Devil The Hand Vac 2.
0 SD12000 Corded Average User Rating: 4.
6 / 5 One of Dirt Devil's most recent handheld vacuum cleaners is simply named The Hand Vac 2.
0.
It looks stylish, but performs like a little beast.
Fortunately, it doesn't sound like one, as it performs quietly but powerfully.
It's most effective on carpets and upholstery with an impressive ability for removing pet hair and tough dirt, and all this is due to its motor driven wide brushroll.
Surprisingly, it's actually reasonably low priced for what it is.
3) Black & Decker Platinum BDH2000L Cordless Average User Rating: 4.
2 / 5 The Black & Decker Platinum BDH2000L is similar to B&D's DustBuster series in terms of looks, but there's a stark contract in terms of performance.
Its Cyclonic Action Technology ensures a strong and lasting suction and it incorporates a 20V Max Lithium Ion battery.
The special battery is responsible for holding a charge for up to 18 months, a run time of up to 60 minutes, and combined with Smart Charge Technology, it only charges when necessary.
2) Black & Decker Platinum Flex BDH2000FL Cordless Average User Rating: 4.
4 / 5 In my opinion, the best performer in the Platinum range by Black & Decker is the Flex BDH2000FL.
It incorporates the same 20V Max Lithium Ion battery as the BDH2000L (number 3 on my list) which provides it with the same benefits.
However, it's more versatile at cleaning because of its flexible stretch hose and multiple attachments.
It also has a neat Filter Refresh Knob that when pushed, flicks dirt and debris off the filter and as a result, it improves suction power.
1) Eureka EasyClean 71B Corded Average User Rating: 4.
4 / 5 My favourite handheld vacuum cleaner has to be the Eureka EasyClean 71B, simply because pound-for-pound, it provides more use than others.
It features a stretch hose with an on-board crevice tool for reaching tight spaces and has a 20 foot long cord so you can easily get around without unplugging.
But the feature that takes it is its ability to clean stairs and carpets so effectively.
Its Riser Visor is a clear plastic cover that remains down when cleaning horizontal surfaces and flips up on verticals, revealing the revolving brush that has its own separate motor (other motor is for the suction).
This makes it ideal for cleaning stairs and the backs of furniture.
