#1. How We Pick the Best Handheld Vacuum Cleaners

There are two vacuum cleaner types of handheld vacuums – corded and cordless. Indeed, corded dust busters tend to offer more powerful suction as they get continuous power supply.

However, we will focus on cordless handheld vacuum cleaners here as they offer more cleaning flexibility and are much more compact & lightweight, which is the main point of a handheld dust sweeper.

Suction Power

When testing the efficiency of a hand vacuum cleaner for home, we always confirm the vac is able to pick up not only visible crumbs and dirt but also fine dust, pet hair and dander.

So, the suction power tops the buying guide. For a mini handheld vacuum cleaner, there is no need to purchase a Superman to deal with dirt stuck in the gaps or crevices.

A good handheld vacuum cleaner with over 8 kPa and above 12 volts will offer sufficient suction power to suck up the dust, pet fur and dander on your sofa, couch, bed, furniture, mattress, upholstery, floor or carpet.

Comfortable Weight

We look for a small handheld vacuum cleaner that is comfortably held for 10-20 minutes without straining our wrists and forearms.

An electric handheld vacuum cleaner should be lightweight so that you are able to lift it easily. A hand dust buster with less than 1.5 kg would be easy for you to lift for 10-20 minutes.

Do focus on the weight and size when you are looking for a handheld vacuum cleaner for pet cat/dog hair, stair, dust or debris.

Battery Life

The biggest concern for a rechargeable handheld vacuum cleaner is the battery life.

It is advised to get a battery vacuum cleaner with at least 15 minutes when in maximum suction power, or at least 30 minutes when in minimum mode.

When we select the best handheld vacuum cleaners, we've taken the above factors into consideration as well as other customers' reviews and feedback, providing you with the below versatile options.
