This vacuum chamber is very suitable for cleaning up dirt. The suction picks up Cheerio-sized dirt quite well. It's nice and light. Battery life is decent. The main problem I have with this product is the filter. The filter is very thin. It's not a HEPA filter, so it's not very good at filtering out airborne pollutants. Due to the fragility of the filter, you will never be able to remove all residue from it. It always gets stuck in the corner and the hair gets stuck in the filter. This is a decent vacuum that picks up small to medium-sized debris, but don't buy this if you have allergies or want your filter to last more than a few months.
