Summary: WHAT?? I can not HEAR YOU!!!!!!
Comments: I was looking for a vacuum to use on my hardwood floors to pick up the dog hair and crumbs left by children. I have been using the swiffer vac which worked fairly well, however I got tired of purchaseing the cloths to use with it. I was looking for a vacuum to plug in thinking it would last longer than a rechargeable1with the same suction ending with what I started with. I saw this at Target and it was on sale, so I purchased it. Well lets start with the positives. It was easy to put together and it did pick up the dog hair. However, there are these jets of air that burst out of the sides of the unit that blow the hair around and I had to chase after it to pick it up. And now for the biggest problem. IT IS SOOOO LOUD!! At 1st I thought I just wasn't used to it since it was louder than the swiffer. I couldn't hear anything. I though well, maybe it's just that powerful, so if it truely works great, I'll look past the noise. Then I went into the powder room, oh my!!,it was so loud it hurt my ears. I turned off the vacuum and my ears were ringing. Since I had to chase around the dog hair and it really did not pick up ething on the floor, the noise was just too loud to take so I returned it to Target and got my money back. |

Summary: Wear ear protection and put the dog out!!
Comments: Too say it's loud is an understatement, the word you want is deafening!! The little thing roars, scares the dog, and falls over occasionally. Kinda reminds me of1of my relatives. I gave it 3 stars because it works well, takes little space to store, the dust dealie is easy to empty and I like the red color. If I had to do it again I wouldn't, that said I threw away the box and receipt in a fit of efficiency so I am stuck with it. |

Summary: Too strong an exhaust
Comments: I purchased the Power Stick to have something quick to get the dog hair from my kitchen floor. The dogs are shedding and I did not want to drag out my big vac all the time. Sweeping did not help since the hair drifted under the fridge and stove. The 1st time I turned on the Power Stick I was impressed at the suction and began to clean my floor. To my dismay the exhaust blew the hair and dust across the room and under my stove and fridge in a split second. You would have to be careful which direction you began to vacuum a floor because of this. I wrote the company to bring this to their attention, NOT to ask for a refund. I got an e-mail back stating they did not give refunds and they never mentioned my complaint. I was disappointed in their reaction and I doubt I will purchase any Dirt Devil products in the future. |

Summary: Noisy however lightweight, Effective
Comments: The vacuum really is noisy. I wear ear plugs when I use it because it is so loud and the noise actually gets painful in narrow halls. I refuse to use it when my dog is in the house and eventually I will have to get a quieter vacuum. For now, though, I like that the vacuum is lightweight, easy to maneuver and picks up the dog hairs and the daily debris. |

Summary: Jet Airplane Noise - Returned it Immediately
Comments: This beast seemed to vaccuum reasonably well, however was outrageously noisy - so much so that I was concerned that it would cause hearing damage.
I immediately packed this puppy up and returned it. |
