Good Points
Very good at picking things up - as good as a standard vacuum cleaner. Also, holds it's charge for a ling time.
Bad Points
Quite heavy, but that's what you get for all that suction. Charging base gets warm if left on continuously.

I had a dustbuster years ago and felt it was a complete waste of space. This handheld cleaner doesn't replace a vacuum cleaner but is really great for small messes. With 2 children under 2, I find it fabulous.

It's very powerful and runs for longer than most other handhelds. This allows plenty of time to clean all of the stairs which I find very convenient. It's extremely handy for cleaning up all around the house.

This is the first hand held, battery powered vac that actually gets the dirt up, rather than making funny noises and just looking at it. Really worth it! Gives just enough time to vac the car.
Bad Points
Could do with an additional battery pack for longer use.
