I want to by a good handheld cordless vacuum cleaner. Any suggestions on which ones are good?

I bought a Black & Decker VPX2102 and it was a disaster so I will return it.

1. The off/on switch was almost impossible to operate, it took so much force.
2. It was expensive and, I learned too late, came without the expensive batteries and expensive charger it required. And I was unable to figure out just what I needed to buy until it actually arrived.
3. The worst part: it only ran about 4 minutes before the batteries were drained and had to be recharged.

I want to find a vacuum that runs for a decent length of time and that either includes batteries and charger or whose ads make it clear how to get them.
The Eureka sounds like a good one. But I need it for a boat and it MUST be battery powered and handheld. Eureka does make those, but run time is critical and I must know it will be a decent amount of time.

I’ve tried dirt devil and black and decker. I know those are the not so good brand. Any suggestion?

Folks, the President needs a break. He’s like a Black and Decker cordless Dirt Devil vacuum. If you don’t recharge his batteries, he can’t suck.

Foodsaver has like 2 million different models – what are the various features or differences between models and even brands (seal-a-meal, black and decker, etc)? What should I look for to compare different models?

What would you buy? Dirt Devil (Kone and Kurv are neat), Black & Decker, Oreck, Eurka, etc? So many brands, which is the best? Just going to be using it for around the house a little bit, maybe suck up some kitty litter. Somewhere around -40.

I know this seems like a ridiculous question to ask strangers, but any suggestions would be helpful. I was going to get her & my stepfather on of those Black & Decker Broom Vacuums, but I heard that they aren’t worth the money. My mom will like anything I get for her of course, but this is the first year I actually have enough money to get her something really nice & I can’t think of anything.

Can someone please help me out with suggestions?
Or can someone tell me that the Black & Decker Broom Vacuum isn’t really as bad as my friend told me it was?

Thanks in Advance!
Jarrett, that’s not even funny.
I just lost my father in September.
I don’t even need to think about losing my mother.
No matter how `in the future` it is.
I`m actually looking at day spa prices right now.
But I can’t find one in my area that has something she would enjoy.

I use the Swifter and they are so expensive. I Swifter every other day and sometimes more and the dust just keeps on coming. We have no carpeting. Vacuums scratch. I have dark laminate looks like real wood but shows everything. I am a slave to my floors. What about a broom vac by black & decker?

I usually take a small rake and gather all the clippings, but that usually picks up my pine needle mulch as well. I was thinking a lawn vacuum or blower like the Black & Decker one, but I think that might make a mess.
