Small hand held vacuum

The Gtech Multi is good, I love it for doing the stairs.

Gtech handheld is a good one. I use it for the stairs.

Also for getting cat hair off the convertible roof of my car as next doors cats think it's great place to sleep.

I have a small shark on a stand, really useful for a few crumbs or settees etc. runs for approximately eight minutes, which is usually enough time for little jobs.

Yes, my Gtech is great. However, I read about this tool on GN (I think), I use mine daily on my cat cushions. It works a treat in seconds! Available on Ebay or Amazon. Can't remember what it is called!
Hair removal tool

I love my one of those shysal but found it pulled my cushions. Obviously, I'm far too enthusiastic.

Sometimes, at functions, cocktail parties even on trains, you hear snippets of conversation (out of context ) and you wonder….WTF?
OP’s comment “ really fed up of DH telling me I have a hairy bottom and can’t keep getting the big shark out” would easily fall into this category ! !

I have the Dyson and find it is brilliant.

Foxy

I used to use a rubber glove to wipe cat hair off soft furnishings.

I thought it might make some people smile!

This weekend I was looking for a reasonably priced hand held vacuum for granddaughters crumbs! I had found on Amazon a VacLife hand held rechargeable vacuum that had good reviews for £39.99. This morning thought I would buy it to find it had gone up to £49.99!!
I feel so cross deleted it from my basket. Hope it goes back down.

Ours was from Aldi I think, about £10 not often used but does the job.

1summer, have you tried searching the whole of that section on Amazon? It often happens that the same item pops up at different prices.

Thanks Hellogirl1 I will have a look.

I always used a roller for cat hairs, some are rubbish but bought really effective ones from Muji on line.

I have had various hand held vacuums over the years, none of which were particularly great. I now have a Black and Decker, which I got off Amazon for £100. I know that's a lot, but I have found it to be really powerful. (It has an 18V motor.) I use it for cat hair, and it is perfect for the stairs. You get about 15 minutes run time when it is fully charged. (Takes about 4 hours to charge.)

Dyson, pretty powerful👍

i have an aldi one, great for the stairs and crumbs in the kitchen!

I have a Lidl one. It does the job, and has a light, which is useful.

I haven’t had any luck with Dysons, bad experiences but the gtech sounds good. I looked it up and it costs just under $800 here - seems a lot. I have a cheap invictus but it isn’t crash hot. I chucked the Dyson out after many problems with charging, replacements and just not doing the job.

I would recommend GTech

I use the sticky rollers from IKEA, a rubber glove also works though.

We had the G Tech handheld but found the battery was deemed useless after a year or so . We replaced it twice but when it happened again out of warranty we found another one cost almost as as much as a new appliance and because of this my daughter ordered a Shark hand held vacuum. She loves it and uses it every day for small jobs .
