The two hand vac Dirt Devils I have are not much for vacuum with the hose. The bagless Classic handvacs use a pan style converter, similar to what Black and Decker, Kenmore and some other hand vacs did. I haven't found a machine that can do that well, most seem to scatter the sand.

It would be easy to manuever, not having a canister or shop vac to move around the car, and would probably clean the carpet and floor mats well. It has just enough suction to lift the sand off my plastic floor liners and just enough battery life to clean every nook and cranny of my car in a single go.īy the way, how is the hose suction on the typical Royal or Dirt Devil hand vac with front hose connection? If it's decent, one of these with the attachment kits may become my next car cleaning machine. The best solution I have found for vacuuming out my car is a digital motor Dyson DC34, found for $100 at Walmart, paired with a Dyson hand vac extension hose. Either way, don't expect an intense amount of suction. I just don't know, though, because I have yet to try the Ultra out. However, maybe the Ultra with its built-in hose and 4 amp motor will do better.

In my experience, your best bet for getting the highest level of cleaning performance is using a 3-amp Plus model with the hose through the front port. I was shocked to find a brand new toy Dirt Devil "Junior" hand vac for less than a buck the other day, too! This thing will actually suck up little pieces of dust and cat hair!įan-of-fans: Bagged Dirt Devil hand vacs can use tools with either the front port or a pan converter, which came with a number of the "Plus models." Although the pan converter is more convenient since it does not require removal of the belt, its performance is worse.

It's apart right now for restoration, but once I finish it, I will post pictures. On the topic of hand vacs.I've had something like 4 103s, 3 Dirt Devil Pluses, 1 Royal prince model 501, and now my favorite: the Dirt Devil Ultra, which I found for $3 in excellent condition.

Kirbyvertibles: Funny thing-I have the long-lost maroon Pro Series Can-Vac for that maroon Power Pak you have! I've been keeping my eyes peeled for a Power Pak for this thing.
