The Dirt Devil M08230X corded handheld vacuum gets some of the lowest consumer scores of any model. Owner-reviewers criticize the M08230X for being heavy, noisy, and prone to overheating. Reviews are better for the lower-priced Dirt Devil M08220 Scorpion Quick Flip Vacuum (*est. $20), but the highest overall ratings for corded hand vacuums go to the Eureka 71A (*est. $50) and the Black & Decker HV9010P Retriever Pet-Series (*est. $30).

User reviews are the best source of information on the Dirt Devil M08230X Ultra Hand Vac, and this corded handheld vacuum gets a good number of posts on Amazon.com, Epinions and Target.com. Consumer Reports hasn't yet tested it. Owner reports about the M08230X's strengths and weaknesses are fairly consistent.
