  • Product Specifications
  • With its sinuous curves and elegant keyhole-shaped vents, Dirt Devil's Kurv looks more like a space-age vase than a household cleaning product. And while it picks up crumbs, dust, and spills just as well as your averagely ugly cordless handheld vacuum, the machine's aesthetics are its major drawing card. Created by renowned industrial designer Karim Rashid, the Kurv is stylish enough to leave out on the counter or coffee table, where it's more likely to come into play sooner--before the Cheerios are ground into the Karastan, in other words, or just as the last-minute guests are due to arrive. The cordless design plugs into a charging base for storage, so the unit is always ready to go, and the dirt cup simply twists off to empty, sparing users the hassle and expense of disposable bags. Weighing in at just two pounds, the Kurv also features a replaceable filter and a soft tip, to protect delicate surfaces like hardwood floors or antique furniture. It comes backed by a limited three-year warranty. --Mary Park





  • Dirt Devil 0216CHL Kurv Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner, Choco-Latte Reviews By Customers
  • We bought this one to replace one we got two years ago. We primarily like it because of it's design and can be place out in the open on our kitchen counter. Also, it is very easy to disconnect from the charger and turn on the power. The chocolatte color is very compatible with our color scheme, granite counter and the cabinets, which it easily fits under.

    No FIVE STARS because we had to replace the first one after two years. It would no longer recharge enough to give the vaccuuming power needed to be effective.

    Needless to say, we liked it enough to get another one. We have notice a different model number on the new issue and hope it means a longer life product.




    Do not buy it! - Ching Juhl - New York, NY United States
    It sure looks good, but does not do a thing. I have returned one (no suction) and the 2nd one is just as bad as the first one. Don't buy it.

  • Nice looking but functionally worthless - Alexander Gruber - Chicago, IL USA
    I bought this vac a year or so ago, and have regretted it ever since. Like most people I purchased this one in particular because I was attracted to the aesthetics. It still looks good, but that is absolutely all it does.

    The thing won't hold a charge for longer than about a minute before its sucking power reduces to a pathetically useless level. It won't pick up objects larger than crumbs, and even that is a stretch sometimes with the heavier crumbs. (Seriously.) It has a vent on the side that sprays out air right in the direction of anything you're trying to vacuum, exacerbating the mess more than cleaning it up.

    I spent extra money to get a vac that would look pretty when not in use, but it turns out all I got was a 60 dollar paperweight. It is COMPLETELY USELESS as a vacuum cleaner. I wish I had bought a cheaper, uglier vacuum cleaner - at least then it would be functional.

    Do not buy. Do not buy. Do not buy.
