Customer Reviews of Dirt Devil 0213CHM Kone Cordless Hand Vacuum - Champagne
Customer Rating:  Summary: Great purchase Comment: Great purchase. Got two, one for my daughter and one for my son. They really like them. Great price and very useful. Customer Rating: Summary: I don't know how I ever lived without it! Comment: I absolutely love the kone, it really does get the job done. I am a serious clean freak and I am constantly going around the house vacumming every little piece of dirt with my kone. I recieved it as a wedding gift and don't know how I ever survived without it. I don't know what all these other people are talking about. Mine works great!! I would recommend this product to anyone!! Customer Rating:  Summary: Poor design, defective battery Comment: Ours was a gift from my wife's mother. I should disclose that I am not a fan of rechargeable vacuums, since they always seem to be a tradeoff of the convenience of not having a cord vs. weak suction and poor battery life. We tried to return this one but without a receipt, no one was willing to take it back. The first problem, as others have mentioned, is the design. Good vacuum design should be focused on function and ergonomic, and this one fails on both fronts. First, the vacuum exhaust blows downwards and out. The result is that the exhaust often scatters the dust/hair/dirt you're trying to sweep up. Second, it's actually very hard to use. The cone shape makes a poor handle, and the on/off switch is at the top of the cone, which requires you to use both hands (one to hold it, one to turn it off). You also have to pay attention more when putting it back in the charger, since it's perfectly round and if you don't put it back exactly right, it doesn't recharge. My biggest issue is the battery. It is by far the weakest of any rechargeable we've owned (I've had 2 dustbusters and now this one). We tried to use it this morning and it started dying 30 seconds into a cleanup. Our vac is less than a year old and this shouldn't happen. It's very infuriating and our Kone is destined for a landfill. Finally, the vacuum opening is a round opening and it doesn't have any attachments. It is very limiting. Dirt Devil spent too much time thinking about a "stylish" design and not enough time building a vac that works. It's a plastic cone -- not a marble sculpture -- and function should always come first. Customer Rating: Summary: Worth every dime! Comment: I was shocked to read reviews for the Dirt Devil KONE with less than 5 stars. I've had mine for a year and have been completely satisfied with its powerful performance. It's perfect for removing hair and crumbs....just sucks it right up. Great for removing my 2 yr old's Cheerios and Goldfish in the car. It's chic, blends in with room decor. Other reviewers stated it was loud. Vacuums aren't meant to whisper. Have realistic expectations and you're sure to be pleased with the KONE. I seriously don't believe it matters whether your right or left handed. My husband and I have no problems with it. Customer Rating: Summary: loses power so fast! Comment: After a few months of use this vacuum only works for about 3 or 4 minutes before needing to be recharged. I'm about to throw mine away. It's a shame because it really is the most attractive hand vacuum out there. More Reviews Do you get tired of emptying your closet for your hand vacuum just so people won't see the eyesore lying around? Well, thanks to Dirt Devil you can reclaim your dignity. Dirt Devil had famed product designer Karim Rashid create the KONE, a cordless hand vac unlike any you've seen. It is an elegant, sculptural form that can be left on display - on your table, shelf, or counter. That way, your hand vac will always be charged and ready for use. No more searching a closet only to find an unplugged unit. The top of this sleek, sculptural piece is the handle of the hidden vacuum; it easily twists off the plug-in charging base. There are never any bags to replace; instead, Kone has a permanent, washable bin. The tip is rubberized for close cleaning without scratching surfaces. The power cord is hidden on a wrap under the 8" diameter base. Who is Karim Rashid? He is a leading figure in the fields of product, interior, fashion, furniture, and lighting design. He is best known for bringing his democratic design sensibility public use. Designing for an impressive array of clients from Alessi to Georg Jensen, Umbra to Prada, Miyake to Method, Karim is radically changing the aesthetics of product design and the very nature of the consumer culture. With numerous design awards, his work is in the permanent collections of 14 Museums worldwide including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and San Francisco. The Dirt Devil Kone is his most recent accomplishment in adding excitement, color, and ease-of-use to the hand-vac. Dirt Devil 3 -Year Manufacturer's Warranty (Parts and Motor) Charcoalmpagne color 
Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers A large number of freezers have eliminated defrosting by continually circulating the air inside the freezer compartment, thus avoiding frost build-up -- a feature well worth paying a little extra for. Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality.

Useful info -> Outdoor Kitchen An outdoor kitchen can help you slow down and spend more time with family and friends by putting all the ingredients for outdoor dining close at hand. It can be as simple as a storage cabinet for cooking gear or as ambitious as a full kitchen with grill, refrigerator, sink and eating area. Either way, your yard will gain an outside "room" that's a natural gathering spot. |
