> 24 hourThe suction is extremely weak, the battery doesnt last anywhere near as long as advertised, maybe 4-5 minutes tops, and it is not convenient to use. Weve bought several BISSELL products over the years (two regular vacuums, and two carpet cleaners), which made us think to choose BISSELL again when looking for a handheld vacuum. Its very inconvenient that you cant just pick it up off a charger and use it, you have to manually unplug the little cord, and plug it back in when done, like you would an old phone. Last is you have to manually clean it out after every use. Its not like other products where you can just press a button, dump, and be done. You have to unscrew the end, then you can dump the contents, but most of what it sucks up seems to get mashed up against the mesh filter so you have to manually pick the pieces out, or separate the mesh filter and bang it on the edge of the trash can, or you wont get any suction when you try to use it next time. Very disappointed in this BISSELL product, will definitely consider other brands when our current full sized vacuum and carpet cleaner need replacing.

> 24 hourBought this vacuum for my couch and it doesn’t have a strong suction like a regular vacuum which is what I wanted for fabrics. Gets in the nook and crannies of my car

> 24 hourFour stars may be generous, but overall it is a good product. Main reason for buying this was to get rid of dog hair on my cloth seats in my car. It’s a brand new car so the dog has only been in it a few times, but there was still a bunch of hair. I got through my passenger seat & to get majority of the hair off, it probably took me a solid 10 minutes of vacuuming. Not all the hair was off once I gave up, but it was clean enough to tolerate. However, I didn’t make it much further past the passenger seat because the vacuum died very quickly. After running for 10 minutes it was already on the last bar of charge. I still think it’s a great product for stuff other than intense dog fur and it’s small enough to keep in the side of your door for easy access. Highly recommend for keeping in a car for little spills or something, but wouldn’t necessarily recommend if your sole purpose is to clean dog hair. A lint roller might be a better option at that point.

> 24 hourIn the first month, I dropped this 3 times on the hard linoleum floor and it’s still alive! Still works great! I bought it for quick cleanups around the apartment so it’s perfect for what I need. As far as I can tell the suction is fine. It has cleaned up every mess I have made. I have not tested it for long periods of time though so I can’t comment on the longevity of the charge.

> 24 hourI bought this to keep in my van…with three kids it has come in handy! I just wish the canister that holds the vacuumed up debris was bigger because it does not hold much it is tiny so you have to empty it frequently. It is also kind of loud so my 2 year old is scared of it. Battery life isn’t bad, but I usually charge after each use. It only has good suction power right after a charge and loses suction pretty quickly if you keep it on a while. This is best for a quick cleaning.

> 24 hourMy experience with this handheld vacuum is, when I use it on flat smooth surfaces the exhaust fan located on the underside of the vacuum blows away all the debris before it can vacuum it up. Therefore scattering the dust, crumbs or hair all over the surrounding area and into the air. If you want to use it for your car maybe your experience would be different. I didn’t buy it for that. I would suggest the exhaust fan be relocated to the top or back end. That way you have a better chance of actually vacuuming up your mess and not creating a dust storm. Otherwise, the suction seems pretty good for such a small appliance. And the battery life is acceptable.

> 24 hourThis little thing is phenomenal. Its better than my shark dustbuster thats twice the size. It even sucks up sand and crumbs stuck in the carpet in my car. Ive literally been walking around the house with this little vacuum, sucking up every piece of dust or dirt I can find. Its that much fun. Be warned, the dust cup is very small and it takes a long time to charge. Its a small price to pay for the best time Ive ever had vacuuming in my entire life.

> 24 hourI love this little vacuum! Its so easy to manage & the battery life is insanely good (at least 20 mins of constant vacuuming), considering how small the machine is. Yes, the dust cup is extremely small, but you can see how full it is, so youll know when to dump it. When in doubt, dump it out!!! I have never looked forward to cleaning cobwebs out of the corners / ceilings of my home, but the Aeroslim makes it fun (or as fun as cleaning gets)! I also dust my mantle, ledges of canvases, etc., with this little miracle. Since this is a new purchase for me, I will definitely update it should the device fail in the near future.
