I've been testing and using this Brigii handheld vacuum for about a month now, so I feel I've gotten a good idea of how the handheld vacuum attachment works (I have not had a reason to use the hand pump or tiny air dusting nozzle yet). I am saving up for a stick vacuum but don't have one yet, and so this makes quick spot cleanings much easier than using our big corded vacuum.Pros:- Very sleek design, vacuum is small and lightweight- USB-C charging is very convenient- I get around 20-30 minutes of run time for every charge, which is right in line with their advertised 25 minute battery life.- It's so lightweight that it's easy to go around the house looking for spots that need a quick touch up.- The 100ml bin cup holds a lot more than you might think! It really compacts all the dust, lint etc so the capacity is better than it appears.Cons:- Suction power with the handheld vacuum attachment is good but not stellar, so some areas need another pass- The "one touch, easy empty bin cup" pops open at very inopportune times, even when the latch is in the locked position. This is pretty gross depending on what you're vacuuming up and where you are when the bin suddenly opens and dumps everything right on the spot you were trying to clean! Not sure if I just got a defective latch, but this has happened often enough that it doesn't feel like an unfortunate fluke.- If anyone in your household has long hair, it's probably inevitable that the vacuum will pick some up even if you're not intentionally going after hair. I've noticed that hair gets wrapped around the inner, metal filter and then the "one touch bin emptying" feature doesn't really work. That feature almost never works for me and instead I have to open it at the other end and take out the filter to get everything cleaned out.All in all.I am not really one to call cleaning FUN, but the small size and light weight of this vacuum ALMOST make it fun to go around the house looking for spot cleanings. I would rate this 5 out of 5 stars if not for the bin cup frequently popping open, and the fact that the one touch emptying feature seems to be incompatible with even the smallest amount of hair.
