Convenient and portable, the lightweight Dirt Devil Scorpion picks up spills and small messes with ease. The 7-amp motor suctions everything from soccer-cleat dirt to cookie crumbs. Constructed of durable, black plastic, the small vessel features a 16-foot chord, optional hose with upholstery brush attachment, and a shoulder strap to ease carrying. Distinguishing itself from other Scorpions, this model offers a convenient flip-down crevice tool enabling immediate access to t…

Great Handheld Vacuum!
I am very happy with my Dirt Devil Scorpion purchase. I was looking for a handheld vacuum that could quickly pick up cat hair around the house (including the couch and desk…
Somewhere between a heavy duty floor vac with attachments and a wet towel, lies the Scorpion. This niche ideally would be filled by the Dustbuster, but as others have lamented, Dustbuster like devices don’t last long enough to really complete most jobs. Cleaning depends entirely on the size of the mess, so its difficult to predict how long a vacuum need be run. With a corded vacuum of small size, one can clean as long as needed, until the dust bin fills up. The trick is to get the right size and weight to make a corded vac as convenient as possible. Dirt Devil has achieved that mix in the Scorpion. Its strong vac makes short work of cleaning, and carried by shoulder strap while using hose allows cleaning of most areas easily, and rarely is the crevice tool really needed. Its very good for cleaning tight places, especially cars. Cleaning a non-disposable dust bin is a mess with any vac, but can be done with less mess by pre-covering the filter with a sheet of kleenex before each run, then mopping up when needed with a disposable lint roller. Constructed of good quality plastic, this vac is well worth its $20. Cons: No stowage for cord or attachment

Powerful, useful. Filter fills fast
Works great (though it is not cordless as the description said). It has a powerful suction and does a good job with the car.
in picking up hair and animal hair. Crevice quick flip makes it easy to use for hard to reach places, picking up the dirt! Downside is the small dirt container but that is minor vs. the power this small machine has.

Excellennt vacuum!
I bought this vacuum specifically to clean the floor and floor mats of my car. I found the vacuum to be very powerful, and it picks up every tiny piece of debris.
We are fostering a rescue cat for a few months and need to keep it separated from our other cats, so we have a litterbox in an area we would prefer not to. Despire trying to keep the area clean, litter was getting tracked around a little bit, and would inevitably end up collecing just out of reach under the baseboard. This vacuum, with its little pointy flip-tip, gets into those kinds of nooks and crannies and sucks out the litter. It is pretty powerful for its little size, and has a nice long cord, which makes up for the fact that it isn’t battery powered. I’d never expect this kind of suction from a battery powered vacuum anyway. On top of everything I was expecting, it also comes with a brush attachment and a flexible host about 18 inches long. This really lets me get to areas I wasn’t really planning, like behind appliances, toilets, etc. I would purchase this again, or purchase it as a gift for a friend.

Great Handheld Vacuum, Great Price
I *LOVE* this little vacuum. It’s super-powerful, easy to handle (although a bit heavy), and easy to clean.

This Thing Really Sucks (in a good way)
INTRO:
I’d give this 4-1/2 stars out of 5 if Amazon allowed it.
I bought this simultaneously with the Eureka 166DX Boss Bagless 2-in-1 Stick/Handheld Vacuum…

Not bad
It has a lot of suction, but the wide attachment is a poor design. Hardly any use. I cut off the nylon bristles and it works better, but should have been better designed.

Terrible vacuum
I bought this to use as a car vacuum. It has terrible power when you add the accessories. In order to get in those hard to reach spots between the seats, you need the…
