The verdictOur take

The DCL184 is Makita's 18V LXT handheld vacuum with a 1m hose, giving 23.3 l/s of airflow, 5.4 kPa of suction and 38W of suction power, with a 0.5L dust bag at 1.5kg bare. Three speeds and the hose suit corners, vehicle interiors and bench clean-ups, and it is sold body only. We rate it a practical compact clean-up tool for LXT owners; the DVC350 has a 3L container, 56.7 l/s and a 2.5m hose for bigger messes, while the 12V CL121D is the CXT version.
