Dirt Devil 08200 Scorpion Handheld Vacuum

Pros: Will probably last a lifetime
Cons: Unfortunately the lifetime will be spent on a shelf in your garage

I've owned the Dirt Devil Corded Hand Vac™ for a number of years and was surprised to see it still being sold today. I was even more surprised, you might say shocked, to see it's 4+ star rating here at Epinions. I originally bought it for quick...

Pros: Light weight, Easy to use, durable
Cons: Cord a little to short for some jobs,

I love my little hand vac. It is great for all those little mishaps that happen. Instead of dragging out the whole vacuum cleaner I can just get out my little Dirt Devil and, “Wala” mess taken care of. I must mention that I have never used mine...

Pros: Small, lightweight, and easy to use.
Cons: None.

My regular vacuum is a Dirt Devil, so for the little pick up jobs in-between, I chose the Dirt Devil corded hand vac.

In the last house we had a re-chargeable hand vac, that used to be plugged in all the time. It lasted a few...

Pros: Powerful, well-designed, good capacity
Cons: None at all

We got this little vacuum as an extra when we bought the upright Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner, the machine that operates without a bag by swirling dirt into a plastic cylinder.

The little hand held was an afterthought, and I'm surprised that I...

Pros: inexpensive and works great
Cons: on your knees to use it, and the outer bag seems to slip off easily

I have owned a Dirt Devil hand vac for at least six years now. I purchased it at K-mart on impulse, the price was right and since I am a impulse gadget buyer, I brought it home with me.

It has turned out to be one of the better impulse buys I...

Pros: light weight
Cons: none

Quite a few years ago I was interested in this little Dirt Devil. I thought that the price was a little high since I was only thinking about using it on my stairs. Then one Sunday the Dirt Devil Corded Hand Vacuum was on sale at a couple of discount...

Pros: Easy to use, well-designed, inexpensive, and powerful
Cons: Blast of air from the left side could blow dirt around if you're not careful.

I was pretty skeptical about the Dirt Devil Scorpion Hand Vacuum Cleaner when I looked at it in the store. After all, my experience with hand vacuums has not been all that positive. The first one I bought was good for basic stuff, but required removing...

Pros: Super power
Cons: None

This Dirt Devil is a demon, when it comes to picking up dirt. It's perfect for vacuuming stairs and upholstery. If you have any pets, which I don't, it would be perfect for cleaning up all those pet hairs that they shed so much. I use it quite ...

Pros: Powerful, good accessories, cheap
Cons: Cord could be longer

Over the years I've had "dustbuster" type handheld vacuums and was never impressed. In fact, I thought the products were nearly useless...the power was not enough for anything but the smallest jobs and the batteries were so weak that 10 minutes of use...

Pros: Good for stairs and quick messes
Cons: Heavy and loud, cumbersome cord

We asked for a handheld vacuum for Christmas a few years ago and this is the one we received. I'd actually hoped for a cordless rechargeable model but we ended up with the dirt devil corded hand-vac.

It's a pretty good vacuum as far as power...

Pros: Incredibly powerful, lightweight, durable and cheap
Cons: NONE

Several months ago I picked up a Dirt Devil Scorpion at my local Menards for $25.00. It looked like the perfect item for using on my stairs.

This hand held vacuum cleaner is aprox. 1' in length and weighs just a few pounds. The power cord is...

Pros: Very handy, lots of uses
Cons: None

We purchased the Dirt Devil Hand Vac 4 years ago and love it! This is one of the best purchases I have made and after 4 years it works just as good as the day we purchased it.

Features
The cord measures approximately 20...

Pros: Great little vacuum, has rotating brush and picks up dirt great. VERY long cord.
Cons: Attachments are fairly useless. Rubber band next to impossible to replace.

I purchased the Q8100RT on impulse. It was at K-mart when I was shopping late one night and I noticed that they had it mis-priced to buyer's advantage and I took the advantage... (oh well, shoot me).

It came with all these attachments and...

Pros: suction, cord length
Cons: it is loud

I have a dirt devil corded hand vac that I use almost exclusively for my steps. I love it! It has lots of suction power, and does a great job getting the steps clean.

It has a pretty long cord, allowing me to reach from the top to the bottom...

Pros: Great for Motorhome's and boats
Cons: Hard on the back

We purchased a new Motorhome in 1992 and I needed a vacuum that was small and easy to use. Since I owned a Dirt Devil for my home, I decided to try this vacuum. It does a fairly good job for a 3 amp vacuum put it is hard on the back using it. Since it is...
