Review on Dirt Devil QuickFlip Wet Dry Held Cordless Vacuum Cleaner - Rechargeable Hand Vacuum Cleaner for small jobs, Lightweight and Portable - BD30225 Blue by Veronica Gonzales

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The hidden compartment (behind the filter) is the key to suction power.

Since I've always needed a basic vacuum cleaner, I turned to the Dirt Devil QuickFlip Wet/Dry Vacuum Cleaner for a test run. This gave good results in both wet and dry use. This is a portable rechargeable model. It is very light and very handy. Three things immediately struck me when I went to the workshop for a test run. Firstly, this vacuum cleaner is best suited for lighter and smaller dirt, stray clumps of dust and small pieces of leaves hiding in the corners of the garage. Secondly, when you use a foldable grout cleaner, suction power and power as well as the directionality of the vacuum cleaner are increased. This is a simple clamshell mount and makes a world of difference. Thirdly, this vacuum cleaner has more problems with carpet and small light fluff. Salt particles were stuck in the black carpet in the trunk of my car. I had success for this job running a rag over the carpet to loosen it. The vacuum's performance is good (not strong, but good), but it needs a crevice tool, a clean dirt bin and a full battery to perform at its best. I also tried this vac on a wet pickup. I poured a small glass of water on the floor and used the mop. He soaked up the spill with ease. Wipe completed cleaning. **Final notes (and really important) For maximum suction success, this device must be completely emptied after each use. This is a two step process and the second step can easily be skipped. First open the block, pull out the blue insert and empty the dirt into a large container. Secondly, take out the small round black foam filter in the middle of the blue part, clean it with a brush and empty this small compartment. I was amazed at the amount of debris in this small hidden room. It fills up quickly and is located directly in front of the suction motor.
