Default Best portable hand-held vacuum cleaner

I've been looking for a reliable battery-powered vacuum cleaner.
Important points:
Reliable batteries, easy to find replacements.
Versatile, able to reach corners.
Easy to clean!
The obvious: Good vacuum, efficiency

I had a Delonghi that would trap dirt inside the badly designed
internal parts. Horrible to clean.

Some that come to mind:
Black and Decker Dustbuster:

Dirt Devil:

Can any of those knowledgable about these things please help to tip
the scales?



We have two dustbusters and I see the better one, 14.4 volts costs $75
at Amazon and batteries are $40. If Bed Bath and Beyond sells it for
$50 they may not have batteries so who would buy a $40 battery for a $50
vacuum.

That's the annoyance of most battery powered equipment.
