how long does the battery last?

Around 15 minutes of vacuuming fun! We have 3 dogs, 2 cats & a 2600 square foot home. I have found that 15 minutes is more than enough time to vacuum those spots that need it the most.

About 10 minutes on high. I find that I need to use the high for best pick up.

Over 20 minutes. I use it for two small rugs daily (We have a german shepherd who sheds a lot) and it makes it through cleaning them On high I'd say 10-12

Pretty long. Months I would say. We got ours about 10 months ago and I think I have only replaced the batteries 2 or 3 times. Pretty good considering it is used almost every night.

Mine has lasted at least a couple of hours. I haven't needed it longer than that.

2 hours. Maybe 2 1/2. Be careful when you "close it" or pause it, because it doesn't turn off and will run the battery down.

Yes, About 3 hours if it's totally dead and about 2 and a half if you want to just charge it. The battery itself lasts for about 2-3 days for me without having to plug up on full.

I use the item daily for several hours a day. If I remember to open the battery compartment before putting it away, the battery lasts a week or two. I'm guessing that amounts to 30-40 hours of use.

I have been amazed at how long the battery actually lasts. I use mine for Children's Church once a week on Sundays. I can go over a month before I have to charge it again.

Usually the battery last between 4 to 6 hours. Just make sure you don't drain the battery. When you see that the battery is almost gone, charge it to prolong the battery life.

the battery works quite well. it lasts at least one to two days if you consistently use it. although its off for a while, you still can turn it on without losing power not being used.

Battery life is pretty good... A whole day if your actually using it.. I've left it sitting and it's lasted around 3 weeks without usage on one charge.

I don't think it's more than a couple of hours, from a drained battery. But I'm not 100% sure. Definitely not an all day thing though.

Not long. 20-30 minutes max. Mine came with an extra battery, which makes it use able. You always have to have a spare charged. Other than battery life, it works great.

Less than 4 hours for mine. The battery really does last a long time. I've had mine for several months and use them for up to 4 hours or more at a time, a couple of days a week. I have only had to charge them a couple of times so far. I am impressed with the battery in these.

About 4 hours per use. My last battery lasted about 3 years before I had to replace it.

Jason, I have had mine for a couple of months and the battery lasts 5 - 7 hours depending on what I am doing. This is a great machine and very fast.

I haven't actually timed it, but I've been able to use it quite a bit without recharging. I use quite a lot on Sundays and for hours at a time on other days of the week. Takes several days before I have to recharge. I have been impressed with the battery life.

Mine is near 3 years old. Battery life is certainly shortened now (probably 10-12 minutes run time) but zero complaints about its performance. Gets used a few minutes every few days. I have been guilty of leaving it on charge a few days over the years. Certainly been a good value so far. Will likely built my own battery for it when the run time is unusable.
