Black and Decker - dustbuster extra Cordless Hand Vacuum HHVK320J00W

I have a Shark but I also have a handheld Dustbuster XL and that thing gets a lot of use between full vacuums. I keep it in the coat closet by the front door so it’s grabbable at any time.

I got the little $50 black and decker handheld one off amazon and it's been a game changer for my house

We have this rubber broom that we got for like, $10 and a Black+Decker cordless handheld vacuum that's not too loud for our own lops. We rake the carpet with the rubber broom to gather pet fur in one area and use the little vacuum to clean it up.

If you have power tools and are already invested in a battery system then buy a handheld vacuum from that brand. I own Ryobi tools and batteries so I got a Ryobi vacuum and it's so much better than the Black and Decker dust buster that I had before. You can even attach accessories to it. The batteries last a lot longer but more importantly the filter doesn't clog up a minute into the job. The problem is that these batteries are made for heavy duty tools so they're expensive so wait for deals. I think Ryobi Days on Home Depot starts soon.

The Dyson one is really powerful but also quite expensive. The black and decker dustbuster is pretty solid and costs less than $50

Ryobi has a good one, but the black & decker dustbuster is decent too if you're trying to save money
