Best Handheld Canister Vacuum?

[mieles7]

In your opinion, what is the best small canster vacuum? I'm referring to the small machines like the Hoover Portapower and the Oreck Buster B. My grandmother has a Riccar Supraquik that she uses more way more than her other 3 vacuums.

The Eureka Mighty Mites from the 1980's are excellent machines. Not so sure about the current versions, but the early versions were powerful and quiet and came with nice full sets of classic Eureka attachments and metal wands. See link below....

The second version - the Mighty Mite II - was also a wonderful compact canister. It used to come with an 8 foot hose! And the green 9amp Powerline version came with a very nice German-made, Miele-like combo carpet and floor nozzle with toggle switch and metal underside.

I forgot about the mighty mite. I always wanted one as a kid.
