Having your house tidy and clean is a necessity. In this the handheld vacuum is useful, but let’s go step by step. The aim is that, fundamental for everyone, to be able to live in a healthy and sanitized environment. However, it must be recognized that you do not always have the time or the opportunity to keep the house clean as you wish. There are many appliances designed for cleaning, generally the basic one is the handheld vacuum, which allows you to clean the floor and sometimes even the carpets.

But what if we have to remove the dust or crumbs or even the hair of our beloved pets from other surfaces? The small foreign bodies could settle on the furniture, on the shelves of the bookcases, on the table, on the sofas, on the armchairs, also attach themselves to the curtains. In short, it is normal for crumbs and dust to circulate around the house, especially in the most popular spaces, such as the kitchen and living room.

How to remedy then? It is certainly not easy to take out the handheld vacuum every time, moreover it is not an object that is used on high surfaces, but only on the ground. So here are the opportunities to use the handheld vacuum. It is a very practical, handy tool that allows you to move around the house with extreme simplicity, in order to collect those impurities that we must eliminate. In addition, some models of handheld vacuums also allow you to sanitize the room air itself. But which one to buy? There are many models on the market, let’s try to understand which are the characteristics of the best.

How to choose a handheld vacuum

When we want to keep in order, we do not always manage to eliminate the tiniest dirt that settles on the surfaces of the house. Dust, crumbs of bread, cheese, drops of water, coffee, wine on the table, on the work surface of the kitchen, or hair of dogs, cats, feathers, these are all elements of dirt that easily fly within the domestic walls and it is not easy to eliminate.

For this reason, it is appropriate to have small but handy, practical cleaning tools suitable for reaching even the smallest spaces. There are many models of handheld vacuums on the market, it is necessary to have parameters in order to understand which product can best meet the cleaning needs that are necessary in every home. Some prefer a handheld vacuum to be used only at home, others need a model that can be used to clean even in the car.

There are those equipped with cyclonic technology and devices that are simpler and with basic functions. We have analyzed the characteristics of the best on the market, now let’s find out specifically what are the parameters that can be considered to understand which device to direct our purchase to.

Suction

Suction is a key feature. It is a question of knowing the power of the handheld vacuum and therefore its ability to eliminate not only dust but also, for example, the hair of our pets that can settle on carpets, cushions and sofas in the house. The suction therefore depends on the power of the engine but also on the filter system mounted on the product. Filters are often washable and therefore it is not necessary to change them, this is very advantageous and certainly more practical. In addition to the filter it is also important to know if the model is equipped with cyclonic technology. In practice, the cyclonic system allows to separate the dust by creating a real cyclonic air flow inside the container, so as to separate the dirt even before it passes into the filter. Finally, cyclonic technology does not require the collection bag, the dust goes directly into the container which is then washed.

Supply

Feeding mode is also important to consider. It is one thing that the handheld vacuum works only electrically, so you need an attack on the socket, another is that it can be battery operated, therefore wireless. It goes without saying that, in this second case, the possibilities of use are much more numerous and easier. The cordless handheld vacuum, equipped with batteries, can be used for example to also clean the car or other surfaces outside the house.

The ability to work is also important, or the autonomy that the product has out of recharge. They range from 10 minutes to 45 minutes of autonomy, so the differences are obvious. For recharging, it is useful that the top can be hung on the wall, to create less space. When the charging base is not present, however, but you must attach the appliance to the socket, it may not always be easy. We can therefore advise you to take note of the presence or otherwise of such a charging method. In addition, there are devices that can also be recharged by attaching them to the cigarette lighter of the car, so that you can use the handheld vacuum anywhere, even outside the home when you go on vacation or in a tent or in a caravan.

Structure

The structure of the handheld vacuum must allow an easy use of the piece. It is therefore appropriate that it is ergonomic. The handle is fundamental, as is the weight of the model and its dimensions. These are characteristics to be considered both as regards the operating moment but also as regards the overall dimensions of the model, once it has to be stored away. The structure obviously also affects the tank’s ability to contain more or less rubbish.

The ease with which the various components can be washed is also indicative, which are ultimately: the filter and the container. In fact, the filter is important to be washable, so as not to spend to replace it completely. The container generally has an ejection button that allows you to detach it from the structure, to be able to simply rinse it under running water.

Endowment

The handheld vacuum in general should be equipped with several brushes, so that it can be used to clean in different areas and perhaps even more difficult points. It is a set of lance nozzles, hair brushes, telescopic nozzles, nozzles for liquids. In this way it will be possible to suck elements of various sizes and weights, even spills of water, wine, coffee and various liquids.

For wet&dry solutions, therefore also aimed at eliminating liquids, obviously the device is equipped with two containers, one for solids and one for liquids themselves, in order to divide the two types of waste. Certainly the whole must have the quantities considered possible by the capacity of the container and the power of the model itself.

Price

As for the price range of a handheld vacuum we can say that there are various cost categories. They range from 20 pounds to around 200 pounds. The difference in cost of the product is given by the suction capacity, the power, the nozzles supplied, the type of power supply and the autonomy of the model, when it is in operation. This clearly means that the higher the price of the handheld vacuum, the greater its performance. You can still find good price-quality ratios but in general it must be emphasized that a more qualitative device presupposes a higher price.

Conclusions

The handheld vacuum undoubtedly helps to eliminate dust on the pavement but the handheld vacuum is essential to eliminate all those smaller particles that settle on the surfaces, which are therefore not directly on the ground. In addition, the handheld vacuum is an excellent device to collect dirt that is wedged in the smallest spaces, between the cracks, between the furniture, in the corners of the drawers, on the sofa, on the cushions, on the rugs.

Having a handheld vacuum allows you to keep the car clean, to eliminate the dirt that settles on the seats, on the dashboard, in the trunk. Ultimately, such a cleaning object is very useful if you want to carry out a daily removal of dirt, albeit quickly and easily. The device is practical and easy to handle, this allows you to act without having to take excessive bulk but rather it is with undemanding gestures that you can solve the problem of dirt around the house. The handheld vacuum is an excellent aid for maintaining daily order and cleaning, without having to equip yourself with small sponges or brooms, which then only tend to move the dust but not to collect it.
