Looking for alternative options that are better for cleaning carpets?.Click here for our best cordless vacuum guide.. VIEW PRICEThe Hoover H-Handy Express 700 is a stylish handheld that’s fine for simple cleaning jobs, such as spilt cereal or crumbs.

We didn’t feel it could match the best handhelds for suction power though – particularly on carpets or when cleaning pet hair.We also think Hoover needs to rethink the emptying system on this vacuum, as it’s one of the worst we’ve tested (hence the low “Ease of Use” rating).. Hoover H-Handy 700 Express.Cleaning Performance.

Decent performance on hard floors and kitchen worktops during our testing, including larger debris.Always ready to use due to the docking station with tool storage.

LED light helps illuminate dirt.

Great price compared with similar vacuums.You can purchase an extra battery separately though.. Tools & Accessories.

Tools Rating: 4/5.The Pure One S12 comes with a single primary floorhead for all surfaces.

This has a direct-drive brush bar, which is able to stir up carpets to remove more dirt and dust.There are also LED headlights to help you see hidden dust and dirt, which is a useful feature.. As we mentioned earlier, the floorhead is easy to steer around furniture and other objects.
