Pros: Relatively inexpensive, easy to clean. Cons: Not enough power for most carpets, limited usefulness on hard floors, poor durability, very noisy.
For reference, this vacuum was used in a two room apartment with only tile and Berber carpet and no pets except fish, which usually don't affect vacuum cleaner performance. Features The Dirt Devil RoomMate has a lot of plastic on it. In ...
Pros: Cheap everyday price. Cordless. Cons: Suction is not powerful. Good for lighter cleaning duties.
I had a nice rechargeable vacuum which I gave to my son. (It was a Black & Decker which I reviewed). We have a car wash/vacuum station at our apartment complex, so I didn't think I'd need a cordless vac any longer. But, the car wash ...
Pros: Easy To Operate, Lightweight, No Bother Of Bags, Cons: Suction Power Not Strong Enough For Heavy Duty Jobs, Need To Regularly Change The Dust Filter
We received the Dirt Devil Roommate as a gift. I've used it many times, but it tends to take a back seat to my favored heavy duty Hoover vacuum. The Dirt Devil Roommate is lightweight and easy to operate, but does not fully live up...
I bought my Dirt Devil Room Mate when I moved out of my parent's home and into an apartment. I needed a cheap vacuum cleaner for just a three room place. A friend suggested this vacuum cleaner when she herself had bought one for the second story of her...
Pros: can hang it up in the closet for storage Cons: picks up lightly on carpeted areas, and barely picks up on bare floors
A little over a year ago, we removed the carpet from our hallway, and living room area and had Pergo flooring put down as well as new tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. I had a Hoover Floor Vac, the type that is similar to this Dirt Devil Vacuum and...
Pros: Light weight, does a good job, no bags to mess with Cons: none
My mother lives in Florida 6 months out of the year and was having a problem with her heavy upright vacuum cleaner. She is 77 years old and kept the vacuum in a closet that was elevated off of the floor. It was hard for to get to, and hard for her to...
Pros: picks up dirt, easy to clean out and store. Cons: not extremely powerful
I actually like my RoomMate
At long last a roommate who is nice enough to actually clean up whenever asked too! The Dirt Devil RoomMate is an inexpensive upright vacuum and despite it's appearance and cost it actually does a pretty good job....
Pros: Easy to use, good suction, easy to store. Cons: Filter cup needs frequent cleaning.
I bought this vacuum because of the name, and because I didn't need a good vacuum since the only carpeting I have is in my vestibule entrance. So I wasn't going to spend a lot of money for a small area. The Roommate seemed perfect because it looked...
Pros: light weight, inexpensive, bagless Cons: no attachments or other features,
Live in an apartment, dorm room, or other small living space? Or just need a good vacuum cleaner to use for small jobs? The Dirt Devil RoomMate is an excellent choice.
We recieved this vacuum as a Christmas gift from my parents while we were...
Pros: It is small and light weight Cons: It is noisy, doesn't have good suction, short hose
I thought with a name like Dirt Devil I would get a superior product but I was wrong. Even though the motor SOUNDS strong, it just doesn't have the pick-up it advertises. The body of the vaccum is all plastic, it has a see-through plastic container ...
Pros: lightweight Cons: really loud, burns through belts, basically a glorified dustbuster
I guess this would be a good but for a small apartment or dorm room, but don't expect to have it for years to come. I've had mine for about 3 years now and it for some reason burns through the vacuum belt everytime now, and there is no way to trouble...
Pros: portable, inexpensive, bagless Cons: not robust enough for normal vacuuming, noisy, no attachments
I purchased a dirt devil roommate when I moved into my apartment-style one bedroom dorm, thinking it would be perfect for the small task of vacuuming 200-odd square feet every so often. I do not have pets, and my carpet is not thick at all....
Pros: compact, light-weight, affordable, easy to empty, powerful for it's size Cons: no attachments, not as powerful as bigger vacuums
I chose the Dirt Devil Roommate vacuum because I'm college student living in a small apartment with a tight budget. This vacuum is perfect! I bought it nearly two years ago and I haven't had a single problem with it. It's compact and lightweight (it...
I bought this vacuum as a substitute for carrying heavier vacuums down to the family room. Unfortunately, if you want to do a thorough cleaning, this is not a good buy. This vacuum has minimal power and does not pick up typical household items....
Pros: lightweight, gets the pet hair Cons: doesn't get edges too well
For years I experimented with different lightweight vacuums to keep the dark area rug under the dinner table clean. One day I saw the Dirt Devil Roommate at my son's apartment and tried it out, went home and bought one. This lightweight little thing...
