Bottom Line
The Duck Compact Cordless Vacuum by Horsepower, Gold Edition is a handy, stylish, and highly portable vacuum perfect for quick spot cleaning and lightweight debris, especially if you like the added bonus of non-toxic pest control for gnats. However, if you’re after a longer runtime or more powerful suction for bigger messes, this might leave you wanting more. Durability could be an issue, though the company appears responsive with refunds.
