Scouted relentlessly tries new products and scours the internet to recommend the best things for upgrading your life – so you don’t have to. Whatever you’re looking for, we’ve got you covered.
Having a clean space is essential for me, but at the same time, I’ve always been reluctant to buy a handheld vacuum. That’s because I loathed vacuuming. Having to bend over and reach in those tight spaces, running over the same spot multiple times to get one fleck of dust frustrates me beyond end. Then I realized that the problem wasn’t vacuuming, but the vacuum itself. A good vacuum can be a game-changer. It should have long battery life, nifty attachments, be ergonomic, and fits into those tight spaces a normal vacuum, or a robot vacuum, might miss. It’ll make you feel like you have suction as a superpower, and you won’t be able to stop cleaning. Even so, we know at Scouted that vacuuming can be one of the worst chores, so to make life a little easier, we’ve rounded up some handheld vacuum cleaners that don’t suck as much as vacuuming does.
