Black and Decker - dustbuster® 20V MAX* POWERCONNECT™ Cordless Handheld Vacuum

I agree with this. For the cordless vacuum, do not cheap out as the battery is crap. I bought 40 sgd was nearly useless. Less than 10 mins suction time and battery died less than a year. I went for a black and decker with a replaceable battery. The battery used in their power tool systems, a bit bulkier but at least you can swap battery packs.

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

I don't know if it's the "best" but we have a Black and Decker handheld that runs off their interchangeable 20v batteries which has made it pretty good in terms of futureproofing. They have a larger stick vacuum that works on the same batteries, along with their tools so we have like a half dozen batteries that work across all these things.

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.

Black and Decker, Dust Buster. A bit big, but works for getting the grounds on the counter and floor. Also for general kitchen small vac jobs, like when seeds are spilled on the floor, etc.

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
