Handheld vacuum cleaners

A handheld vacuum cleaner is for small jobs: the table after a meal, cushions, the inside of a car. It is best chosen on how it sits in the hand, how easily the bin empties without mess and which nozzles come with it for tight spots. High power matters less than battery life and charging time, since it needs to be ready whenever you reach for it.
