If you're tired of lugging out your full-sized vacuum cleaner or buying cans of compressed air to clean your desk space, there's an easier alternative. Amazon is currently offering the Hoto Handheld Cordless Vacuum Cleaner for just $31.31 after applying a 55% off coupon code "468DGGLL" at checkout. Note that Amazon's listed price is incorrect; the actual price is $69.99. This cordless handvac has garnered over 700 reviews, averaging a 4.3/5 star rating, and a Fakespot "A" rating, making it a reliable choice for cleaning up food crumbs and dust bunnies around your keyboard and gaming PC.
I own this handheld vacuum and find it to be a great value at the current $31.31 price, though it's just okay at $70. Despite its compact size, it boasts a strong suction power of 15,000Pa, making it effective for its intended use. While it's not as powerful as my Shop-Vac or canister vacuum, its lightweight and portable design make it much more convenient to use. It comes with several attachments, but I mostly use the brush, which performs well. The 1,900mAh battery offers around 10 minutes of runtime on high, as claimed by Hoto, and recharges easily via a USB Type-C cable.
I primarily use the Hoto handvac to keep my desk clean, but its portability has led me to use it around the house for tasks like cleaning coffee grounds in the kitchen, eraser marks on my kids' desks, and cat fur. It's more effective on solid surfaces than on carpet or upholstery, where spinning or rotating brush heads are more suitable. The dust bin is small, but emptying it is simple: twist to unlock, dump the contents, and wipe the filter with a paper towel.
