DeWalt - 20V Cordless Dry Hand Vacuum

I have the same DeWalt. It's great for smooth floors, but it's really hard to push on carpet. Other than that, it's a great vacuum that I use daily in my business.

2nd this one. It's a bit spendy but god damned good

DeWalt 20V cordless car handheld vacuum. My tools are already DeWalt so batteries aren't an issue. Lots of accessories in the box. Powerful, perfect for car and also for project clean up. It's like $149, but always goes on sale. Had it for years, no complaints yet. If you're a Milwaukee guy, and have the batteries already, they probably have an equivalent.

I have the Dewalt stick vac. I use it to clean up in the shop after a project. Saw dust, metal shavings, larger debris like rock dust also. It is decent for that. Overall I’m glad I bought it because it is way easier than digging out the big vac every time. It’s obviously not as powerful as a full sized shop vac, and it does rip through batteries pretty quick compared to a lot of other Dewalt tools I use. I wouldn’t want to clean an entire room with it as it wouldn’t be great for that, but it is very handy for small cleanups. Edit- also I wanted to add- since you are working indoors it would be much nicer to go with a corded option. Stihl makes a small shop vac called SE 33. I would 100% go that route if I were you. If you can fit that size anyway. I have the larger se122 and it is the best shop vac I have ever owned and I have owned quite a few different brands.

The DeWalt. I have additional batteries for tools. It does a really good job.

https://a.co/d/fbWGgxV DCV501HB I love it for doing all kinds of stuff. My only two pieces of advice: 1.) buy the cheap filters off amazon don’t waste your money on the dewalt branded filters. Change them every six months or so. 2.) when using the thin tip if you have light colored floors or walls put painters tape on the tip the black plastic can leave marks. I can use a single 4Ah battery for two weekly cleans of a 2000ish sq ft house. I do all my stairs and baseboards and bathroom floors. It’s also really nice for cleaning out cars with the flexible hose. My only complaint is it can make a little mess when emptying the canister but I just re clean it with the vacuum lol.

DeWalt DCV501HB. Highly recommended.

I'm happy with the Dewalt DCV501HB vacuum, works with the Dewalt 20v batteries I already have for the tools. No beater on any carpet attachments, so getting the dust out of floor mats is a little more time consuming./complicated.

The Dewalt DCV501HB is on sale for $99 right now. I'm pretty happy with it, already had Dewalt batteries. 4ah is plenty for my MINI, doesn't always last when I'm working on the Fusion, a lot bigger sedan. Good thing I have plenty of batteries.

I use the DeWalt cordless one https://www.lowes.com/pd/DEWALT-20-Volt-Cordless-Car-Handheld-Vacuum/5013541719

I'm using the [dewalt handheld](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YXZ4L8T/ref=nosim?tag=buyitforlif00-20) to complement my corded vacuum for spot cleaning, its canister is tiny but good suction on hardwood and comes with a lot of attachments.

I feel it's a step up from stick vacs, and is easier to use with more accessories than lunchbox-style vacs. I typically pair it with 10-cell batteries, e.g. 5Ah in a pinch, 8Ah when it's free, 12Ah if it's free and I want longer runtime. It's not a vac I would have ever considered buying, but I tend to use it more, even ahead of vacs I did pay for. I use it on the higher power setting except when I need to stretch a lower capacity battery. I also have a sample of the Dewalt stick vac. It's great for sawdust and similar, but I clog it a lot and have to empty and clean the filter a lot. You can't beat the ergonomics, but it's really a final cleanup type of vac.
