The Black & Decker PSV1800, sometimes called the Black & Decker Pivot Vac, is a bagless and cordless stick vacuum that is effective on both bare floors and carpets.  It lasts a fairly long time on a single charge and comes with a 2-year warranty.  There are some consumer comments that it is awkward emptying the dirt canister however.  [REF Black & Decker Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]


The latest Ergorapido has one major improvement over previous models – the Lithium Ion battery.  Lithium Ion batteries recharge must faster than the NiMH batteries used in older Ergorapido models and they also provide fade-free power.  The new 18V battery also ensures strong suction for a stick vac.  Owners Like that the vacuum is lightweight, maneuverable and comes with a built-in handheld vacuum.  It is great on hard surfaces but like many stick vacuums it is only average on carpet.  [REF Electrolux Vacuum Cleaner Reviews]


The Eureka Quick Up group of vacuums appears to have some average vacuums and some winners.  The 96 series is quite popular and are all very light and have good, strong batteries.  They are also inexpensive and double as handheld vacuums.   [REF Eureka Vacuum Reviews 2011]


The Dyson Digital Slim is both a handheld and a stick vacuum.  It is driven by a powerful digital motor and comes with a floor tool capable of cleaning both carpet and bare floors.  A long aluminum wand also helps this unit clean from the floor to the ceiling effectively.  It uses lithium ion batteries for fast recharging and fade-free power.  Owners are pleased with the vacuum’s strong suction and build quality but feel it is quite costly and that it falls short in terms of battery power duration.  [REF Dyson Vacuum Reviews]


Like most Miele vacuum cleaners this one works very well, gets great reviews but is expensive - common traits with Miele.   It was recently rated by Consumers Digest as a Best Buy.  Reviews on this unit are limited but those consumer comments that can be found are overwhelmingly positive.  The Miele S163 stick vacuum also comes with a Super Air Clean Filter and an optional HEPA filter, a level of air filtration not overly common with stick vacs.  It is recommended for low-pile carpeting and smooth floors. [REF Miele Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]


This is an inexpensive (about $50.00) and fairly simple stick vacuum manufactured by Bissell.  It is somewhat innovative in that it has a “v-shaped” nozzle that is designed to direct larger debris to the unit’s main suction area while the arms of the “v” pick up the finer dust and particles.  The 81L2 is a corded, bagless upright that is light, manueverable and good on hard surfaces but it has limited effectiveness on carpet and some owners feel it is a bit loud.  [REF Bissell Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2011]


The Hoover Corded Cyclonic Stick Vacuum (model SH20030) gets strong ratings from consumers with owner comments indicating a very high level of satisfaction with the units maneuverability, light weight and quiet operation.  This is a corded stick vacuum so there is no battery life or recharging issues to speak of.  It also comes with a brushbar that makes it effective on both carpets and bare floors.  [REF Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2011]


Electrolux seem to have developed a winner with the Electrolux EL1012A Stick Hand Vac 2 N 1 Ergorapido Cordless (although we wish vacuum cleaner manufacturers could find a way to make less complicated names).  Consumers give this stick vacuum very good reviews with few disparaging remarks. [REF Electrolux Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]


The Miele S168 stick vacuum is the latest Miele stick vac and it is slightly more advanced (and more expensive) than the S163.   The suction on the S168 is fully variable and consumers heap praise on this machine for its power and its ability to run very quietly.  On the downside, even though rather light for an upright, it is considered by many to be a little heavy for a stick vacuum. [REF Miele Vacuum Reviews 2010]


This is a short and to-the-point review of a popular, no-frills, stick vacuum cleaner.  Consumers generally feel that this machine is great for light cleanups and is also a pretty good buy.  It is not meant to do heavy-duty work however. [REF Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]


The Hoover Platinum Collection Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum is sometimes referred to as the Platinum Collection Cordless Stick Vac or sometimes simply the BH50010 (which is the model number).  It is a cordless and bagless stick vacuum cleaner and is the first stick vacuum to come equipped with Hoover’s WindTunnel technology. [REF Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]


A lightweight, bagless, inexpensive vacuum cleaner manufactured by Hoover with reasonably good consumer ratings.  It is also rather fashionable and has a sleek, smooth design with a painted high gloss finish. [REF Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2008]


Dirt Devil makes quite a few funky looking vacuum cleaners.  The Dirt Devil MBV2030 Rechargeable Broom Vacuum is no exception.  This device is essentially a combination broom and vacuum cleaner and comes in a myriad of colours from basic black or white to plum, seabreeze or butter yellow (and more).  Is this the best vacuum cleaner?  Let's review the features and consider what consumers report...
