Works as advertised: 
The product works as advertised (indeed, right on the outside of the box). Six minutes of suction, more powerful than any other hand-vac I've used. As for design - a major improvement could be made in the design for battery charging; as has been pointed out, the charge connectors are in the vacuum, not the battery.
To charge an extra battery, you need to disconnect the battery from the unit (a task that, if you're not careful, will result in scattering the various parts all over the room if your hand...more info
Just a horribly engineered product.: 
I don't usually go back later on and add any reviews of the products I own, because I don't usually feel it necessary. With this product, it's so bad that even with the number of accurately bad reviews already, I still feel the need to chime in.

This vacuum has been nothing but problems for me. The battery doesn't last longer than 10-12 minutes of cleaning. After a few months the machine wouldn't work at all. I called customer service, and she said it's a common battery problem and sent me a free replacement because it was still under warranty. About 6 months later, the same thing began to happen, but now the machine was out of warranty. Battery replacements are very expensive, more than the cost of several brand new competing handheld vacuums.more info
