nellie2 Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Has anyone got one of those hand held vacuum things? Which is the best to get do you think??? Or shouldn't I bother at all?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I think they are brilliant. Do get one with a decent battery size. Really does save having to bed down to pick small rubbish up. Can give more details on my return to wet, cold England. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Radfordin Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Not advised for use on the insides of a computer I believe, apparently sucking causes more static than blowing (and compressed air is more fun) though handy for the keyboard.Of course it'll depend on how big your hands are as to how big a vac we are talking about here..!

nellie2 Posted March 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I wasn't thinking of taking it anywhere near the computer.... I only have little hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nellie2 Posted March 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I know I want a rechargable one.... but that is as far as I have gotten... I'm terrible at making decisions when it comes to things for me. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nellie2 Posted March 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 A couple of quid cheaper than Argos... but by the time you add postage and packing I might as will nip down town for one!!argos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanHo Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 NellieWe bought a 4.8 volt Black and Decker last year but it lacks power. It resolutely refuses to pick up my DIY debris.We then bought a 12 volt one - it is great and the battery provides adequate power to vac the stairs - something the 4.8 volt one would not do.It costs more - but is well worth it.

Sir T Fireball Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 Hand helds are really usefull. We use ours to tidy up around the bird cage and for the odd spillage. Saves dragging the monster sized one from under the stairs every time. Get the most powerful B&Decker one you can afford. The more you spend, the better the suction :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
