Don't waste your money and time with this piece of garbage. It blows the dust through the ventilation. Badly engineered. Those guys got their degrees in a box of cereal.

Pros
This is an extremely powerful vacuum cleaner, especially for its size. Its size and various attachments allow it to clean almost anywhere. The long cord gives it a long reach.
Cons
That powerful motor makes a lot of noise, but most vacuum cleaners do anyway. The picture shows it is black, but I received the trademark Dirt Devil red color. Power cord is not retractable; this may be an issue for some people. I don't mind.
Conclusion
If you want a full size vacuum cleaner's capability in hand held size, then this is for you.

This vac is much more powerful than the typical battery powered hand vac. But, it is also loud and the air blowback is significant (watch you refrigerator magnets go flying!) This like the "shop vac" of hand vacs...handy when you really need it, but irritating to use.

I have had the Dirt Devil Scorpion vacuum for about 3 years and it's pretty good. I only use it about 4-6 times a year. It's not broken and don't expect to replace it anytime soon. I hope it lasts forever.
5 STARS=EXCELLENT
0 STAR=POOR
SUCTION POWER - 5 STARS: This is a small handheld vacuum but the suction power is incredible! You get even more suction power when you flip on the green tip (and it's attached! you can't lose it). I use it clean the filters from my Frigidaire AC unit and my (Rabbit Air) Air Purifier. The motor is powerful and it does not run on battery charges, just good old straight from the wall electricity.
FILTER - 1.5 STARS: The filter inside the vacuum is kind of flimsy and clothy. When I vacuum, I can't shake off the dust from the filter, it kinds of sticks onto the filter, and I have to peel away the layers of dust. To some people, doing this is a dealbreaker, there's no way around it. Remember, I vacuum small dust particles, not large objects like Cheerios. I always have to rinse the filter with water in the kitchen sink and let it dry overnight. ***Note: Other people, may have other opinions due to what they vacuum. I posted some pics, you be the judge.***
NOISE - 0 STARS: It's loud...very loud. At first use, it may startle you or your pets, and gets annoying after a while. It has a small whine to it. It gets louder when you flip on the green tip.
ATTACHMENTS - 3 STARS: Comes with a two attachments: One hose (~28 inches) and one brush attachment. There's nothing extraordinary about it. I use the hose attachment and the green tip the most. I don't really use the brush attachment so I can't comment. You can connect the brush attachment directly onto the vacuum.
WEIGHT - 3.5 STARS: It's less than 4 pounds but it can be tiring to hold if used too long...I think that's why it comes with a shoulder strap. I don't use the shoulder strap because the vacuum gets a little too warm for me. When I vacuum, I attach the hose and put the vacuum on the floor but it may tilt on it's side (be careful when doing this, please do not vacuum while the unit is on its side).
I would like to see a better filter design, a grounded plug, and a sturdy base (so it doesn't roll to its side).
OVERALL, I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS HANDHELD VACUUM if you want suction power, I would not recommend this vacuum to people with dust allergies, since cleaning the filter is not ideal for some people. It does the job but it's not perfect. I used to own a Dustbuster and the suction was poor because it ran on batteries, I eventually threw it away. Since the Dirt Devil Scorpion is corded, the suction power will not wane like cordless vacuums.
This product seems to be made of good quality and I expect it to last for a long time.
***I posted some pics about the filter, hope it helps***

This is much more powerful than the cordless Shark I threw out. The cordless was convenient but was powerless after 5 minutes of use. This has a long cord, no recharging, and superior suction.
