Hoover BH50030 This is the greatest hand held vacuum ever!!

Hoover BH50030 This is the greatest hand held vacuum ever!!
Forget all the other small vacuums with cute names. This one actually DOES clean. It does cost more, but the first time you use it you will forget the few extra dollars.
If you are tired of all the little "toy" vacuums get this one and get the job done.
But be careful.......this little rascal will suck the laces out of your shoes!!

Hoover BH50030 works as expected.

Hoover BH50030 works as expected.
My wife is looking for powerful and reliable hand vac.
This one is considered pricey. So far it works well and is doing the job.
However, be aware that dust will still pass and get collected on the back (clean) side of the foam filter, which is considered secondary (final) filter.
Not sure if it is the intended design.

Hoover BH50030 Powerful and convenient.

Hoover BH50030 Powerful and convenient.
I'm really impressed with this little hand vac. I bought it because I liked to Linx stick vacuum but it couldn't get the furniture. I use this on furniture, stairs, anywhere with small areas, the car. I highly recommend it.

PROS:
* It's cordless (super convenient)
* The powered roller brush really gets the pet hair off
* The battery charges separately from the vacuum so there doesn't need to be an outlet where you store the vac
* Battery keeps it's power until it dies (doesn't gradually lose power as you use it)
* Charges quickly
* Powerful suction
* Works well on stairs
* Comes with other attachments besides the pet roller attachment
* Easy to empty (lots of reviewers found it tricky to get the cup off, but I don't)
* Easy to clean filter (I brush it off outside with a stiff bristle brush)
* Reasonably lightweight

CONS:
* It's pretty loud (I have to wear earplugs when I use it)
* Filter needs cleaning after each use

Hoover BH50030 BEST BUY, Best purchase EVER!

Hoover BH50030 BEST BUY, Best purchase EVER!
I have 2 long haired cats and a dog. They sleep on the couch and always leave massive amount of hair behind them so every time you sit down on it you end up looking like you are wearing a fur coat and fur pants. Attractive. Also I live at the beach so there's no avoiding the sand all over everything. Since I got this little beauty (and it's vacuum counterpart so I have 2 interchangeable batteries) it's so easy to just grab it, vacuum down the couch and pillows and it gets it sooooo clean. It's the roller that really does the work, the suction when the roller is not on isn't all that great but I just really need it for some throw rugs and the couch. I am very pleased with this product.

Hoover BH50030 BEST PRICE, I love this vacuum!

Hoover BH50030 BEST PRICE, I love this vacuum!
I bought this vacuum (Hoover BH50030 LINX Pet Cordless Hand Vacuum a month ago and have used it several times a week. I have two dogs, one white, one black, both shed horribly. This vacuum effortlessly picks up all the dog hair....the only hand-held that I've ever been happy with. The battery life is plenty long enough to clean all the furniture plus two flights of stairs with lots of power left. If you have pets, this is the vacuum you need!

Hoover BH50030 Fourth time's the charm

Hoover BH50030 Fourth time's the charm
This is my fourth hand vacuum in about as many years. The others have been a Black & Decker, Eureka, and Hoover. This Hoover is definitely the best out of the bunch!

Pros:
- Extremely powerful for a cordless vacuum.
- One of the attachments has a brush roller, which really helps in picking up pet hair.
- Uses an interchangeable lithium ion battery, which is handy if you have the Hoover LINX floor vacuum, as you can just swap batteries between the two if one is low on a charge.
-Nice ergonomic handle.

Cons:
- A little on the heavy side.
- By far the most expensive hand vacuum I've ever bought (twice as much as the next most expensive one).
- Dust container is a little hard to get on and off.

Overall, I guess this one of those "you get what you pay for" products. I love it for cleaning stairs and upholstery. Its high cost is mainly due to the lithium ion battery. For those who are not familiar with this battery technology, it's the same kind of battery as found in cell phones. Advantages are that it packs a lot of juice and has no memory effect like the older NiCad batteries. It's expensive but so far worth it.
