15 best cordless stick vacuum cleaners to buy now, tried and tested
4 days ago - It scored full marks when it came to lifting dust and crumbs from all floor surfaces but was a bit bulky for cleaning the car, even when using the crevice tool. Cleaning round the skirting boards proved a challenge too – the vacuum left a thin border of dust. Swapping to handheld mode should help here though, especially as the suction power stayed consistent across the board.

I like the black & decker dustbuster. Its only around $40 and gets the job done well enough. You can find some good options in this thread More on reddit.com
Consumer Reports Reviews of Vacuum Cleaners
No one likes Shark for several reasons. One being that bagless vacuums are just inferior to bagged vacuums. Another is that a lot of their vacuums are cordless which is inferior to corded. The biggest issue with Shark is that they are poor quality, unrepairable, and have next to no parts availability. Plenty of us around here appreciate Kenmore. They make a solid budget vacuum.

Looking for a quality hand vacuum
What your post is lacking to give advice: Hand vac means many things to many people. There are "dust buster" types that are tiny and designed for small spills, car cleaning and the like. And there are hand vacs like a stick vacuum which are small vacuum cleaners. Which is it? You are lacking use case and floor type....carpet or hard surface. More on reddit.com

June 25, 2025 - We also liked the Black + Decker DUSTBUSTER Hand Vacuum, which is lighter than our winner and only marginally less effective. It excelled in suction tests and sports a narrow nozzle that is especially adept at reaching into tight corners. Handheld vacuums are relatively compact, lightweight, and portable.

The Best Car Vacuums for Every Cleaning Job, Tested by Experts
September 23, 2025 - Despite the name, Amazon's bestselling "car vacuum" does not work. It won't pick up anything heavier than a blade of grass, and its 12V cig-lighter power cord is severely limiting in mobility and usefulness. Hard pass. ... This ultrasmall handheld vac emulates the Fanttik but just misses the mark.

Best Vacuums for Pet Hair, Tested and Reviewed - Consumer Reports
December 11, 2025 - Handheld vacuums aren’t designed for heavy cleaning. They’re best for whisking up cereal from under a high chair or off the floor mats in your car. Few can tackle pet hair, but here are some notable exceptions. These models also earn very good marks in our bare floor and carpet tests. CR doesn’t collect reliability or satisfaction data on this type of vacuum because consumers tend to replace rather than repair handheld vacs, given their relatively modest price.
