Suction needs to be improve since it wont work well over carpet so cleaning cars can be difficult. On hardwood floor & similar surface would be fine. I think it is great battery wise and could be the reason why I might end up keeping it.
But if they can improve on the following, would make great product.
1) More useful tool, specially pet brush tool to make it is easier to use on carpet & pet hair
2) More suction. This suction is kinda weak compare with many others in the class
3) Hand free & stress free dumping -> I really hate using my hand to push out the dirt to clean the vacuum
4) Less weight -> kinda heavy at the moment
5) Longer extended tool design -> check B&D for reference
I purchase this model, along with the most popular Black & Decker units, here are the comparation:
BLACK+DECKER HHVJ325BMP07 SMARTECH PET Cordless 10.8V Hand Vacuum
https://www.amazon.com/BLACK-DECKER-HHVJ325BMP07-SMARTECH-Cordless/dp/B06XHJGH69
This one is the newest technology from Black & Decker. I bought it because it has significantly very powerful suction compare to Holife + the pet brush is excellent when removing pet hair from carpet & cloth surface. The design is better because it is very light and easier to carry than Holife. Holife extended tool is softer, which limit the damage done when contact with object and hard surface. But it cannot reach under cabinet as much as the B&D one. Yet, the battery is the real winner of Holife. I keep vacuum and vacuum and the battery last forever. It is amazing. B&D battery life is horrible. Only around 15 mins use which is not enough time for a car cleaning job. What a shame because with a price tag of $100, I expected better performance battery wise.
BLACK + DECKER CHV1410L 16V Cordless Lithium Hand Vac
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006LXOJC0/ref=psdc_510114_t1_B00CCYLBZ0
This has highest review on Amazon and is a pass. Suction is just as much as Holife but battery life, again is horrible. The only good thing about it is the ease of cleaning. It is stress free, and dirty free, no need to open the filter , then open the cover, then dump. Only open and dump.
The first unit that I received had suction that was about worthless since the first day. Both my husband and I tried it and it worked so poorly, I don't think we have used it since the first week. What a waste of money.
Within 24 hours of my bad review, I had been contacted with an offer to either refund my money or send out a new better model. I received the new model within a couple of days and it works so much better than the old one. I may have just gotten a dudd. I would not be worried to buy from this company because they really believe in their product and take care of their customers in kind way and don't stop until the customer is taken care of. Not only does my new unit have much better suction, but it came with better attachments than the first one. They did not make me send the old one back which saves me time that I don't have. I am very pleased.
I was very happy with it for the first week September 2017. Charged it on the stand first and checked out how well it worked and emptied and everything else. All good. A couple more small jobs that first week, taking it off the charger. Come October 1st I took it off the charging stand with the green light on and it was completely dead. Nothing. Put back on stand and flashing red lights which usually indicate the rechargeable batter on a device is no longer chargeable or it is damaged.
One person asked the question can you leave on the stand after fully charged? The only answer at the time, until I added my experience, was that one person said he or she had been doing so with no problems. Is that not what these stands are for .... to keep the devices topped off and ready? Did I miss in the instruction manual (anyone have their's around or know the answer?), which I cannot find now .......that you are NOT supposed to leave on the charger? Honest question.
So I with the same detail above emailed to the Mfr. in China (I'm guessing) and asked the question and asked if it was possible to get a replacement unit if you were supposed to be able to leave on the charger and mine was faulty for some other reason.
They have responded with the information that yes there is circuit protection for a period of time after full charge is obtained, but recommended NOT leaving on stand plugged in indefinitely and it is possible to damage the battery and that is what apparently happened. They have offered to send another vacuum as replacement.
With that new information and good customer service I am revising my review upward from the lower score to tentatively 4 stars now as we really do like this cordless vacuum from the couple of times we first used it. And nice to know they stand behind their equipment.
* it's easy to use - cordless, easy to charge, light.
I have another much bigger vacuum. Everytime it's such a hassle to take it out of the closet and carry it around the house. Having a small vacuum solve that problem. I can use this vacuum on a daily basis without all the hassle.
* Great for pet owners - clean up food residue and hair.
I have a dog and it's difficult to clean up after him everyday. He shed on the floor and furnitures. He make a mess everytime he eat dry food. It's helpful to have a small cordless vacuum so I can clean up effortless whenever I need to.
I would definitely recommend this for anyone tired of big ass vacuum cleaner and cleaning up after their pets with tissues.
I cannot stress just how much of a lifesaver this little vacuum is for me! I use it several times a day because I have dark wood floors and they show every little piece of anything on them. I have two grey cats and their hair is like tumbleweeds across the floor so I'm constantly vacuuming.
It seems I rarely have to charge this vacuum. You very often have to clean the filter off, especially if you're using it to pick up fur like I am as it blocks up the filter quickly.
Mostly though, I use this as an effective way to get rid of BUGS! Spiders, stink bugs, ants, centipedes, literally whatever I find freaking me out, I run for my HoLife and get rid of it! I quickly dump the offender into the toilet and flush. ...problem solved!
This has really impressive suction for such a cheap vacuum. Just clean the filter and it'll be a great quick clean up vacuum for your household

The irony in this comment is enough lol It doesnt suck :( I got this to replace the other brand i had, normally i would not pay $50 for a hand vacuum the one we had before we paid about $25 for at walmart and still works just a little dirty and well used, was just time to replace it i use it everyday for our dogs (st bernard and boxer) and to help keep the bird mess up :( This doesnt work at all lol its good for like maybe some dust or two or something smaller, but everything get caught in the little rectangle that is by the filter and then you gotta empty it out. This would be good for someone in a cubical that cleans up hole punch messes :( Will not be buying this again and going to try and get rid of mine :/ going to have to purchase another brand and i feel i wasted $50.
****UPDATED TO 5 STARS DUE TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND SERVICE***** Seller Offered another model that may suit my needs, I declined simply because I will try again at a later date and WILL keep this seller and model number in mind! Because of the customer service I will keep them in mind for my future purchases!
I bought this mostly for cat litter pick up by the cat box and it's perfect. It's on the quiet side which took me by surprise after the noisier handheld vacuums I've had in the past. It has done a great job with the cat litter on the floor and bathroom floor foam pad next to it.

Edit: *****I am changing my initial review of this product to 5 stars. The reseller contacted me after my initial review and was extremely helpful and courteous while resolving the problem. I will purchase from this reseller again.***** We purchased this item to replace a recently failed Black & Decker handheld vacuum. Charged the vacuum, attached the crevice tool and began to clean. Within a few seconds, the attachment falls off. We re-attached the tool, making sure that it was fully inserted and the same thing happened again – over and over. As soon we point the vacuum towards the floor and use it for only a few seconds, the attachment falls off. Upon inspection, I see that there is nothing at all to lock attachments in place. One of the selling points is that the attachments “lock in place”, but this is not true; there is no locking tab or anything like that. It looks like pressure is supposed to keep it in place. My advice is to spend a little more money and buy a name brand product. Returning.
On a positive note, the unit is very light, extremely quiet and has plenty of power. It works well if you don’t need to use the attachment.
I gave this product 1-star on my first review based on its failure to recharge. The vacuum was returned and promptly refunded. The company who makes this vacuum contacted me and asked that I give them another chance. Based on their high reviews, I reordered and am very pleased with this second vacuum. This company is very concerned with customer satisfaction and they make a great product. I’m happy I gave them a second chance.
This was my earlier review: The vacuum took the initial charge fine and worked good the first couple of times I used it. After a week of non-use I was surprised to see it was completely dead. I attempted to charge it to no avail. It blinks red continuously but doesn't charge up at all. It is being returned to Amazon.
This is one of the best portable vacuums that we have ever owned. It charges quit fast and holds its charge for 30 minutes of use. I have had the Black & Decker and have returned it as it did not work well. It would only hole a charge for about 3 minutes of use and then would die. It didn't have the power that this new one has. The charger is sort of large but is very easy to put the vacuum in it and out of the way while charging. It arrived in a few days and was packaged in a very heavy cardboard box with several attachments & an extra filter. We are very happy with this vacuum.
