Batteries suck on the cheap ones. Short run times, long charge time.
Makita, Milwaukee, DeWalt, Ryobi all have good versions for around $100.
Dyson is the best but also crazy expensive

you may ask the owner of the tables what they will allow you to do on them, if anything
why would ANY room owner not let you vac a dirty table?? other than maybe embarrassing their lazy asses.
I would complain to the owner/manager and look for another Poolroom to play at if they don’t comply to make an attempt to clean their tables.
If you bring your hand held vac in, I wouldn’t even bother asking them if you can clean it. Maybe by seeing you clean their filthy table, they’ll get the hint, and the more other customers in there at that time the better. Preferably, I would make sure you do it right in front of the owner/manager!
maybe because customers have no right to do anything with the tables except play pool on them, you can go play somewhere else if you don't like the tables
Roger that! If I own the tables I would much prefer customers not try to maintain my tables. If there is a problem with a table I would like them to tell me and I’ll take care of it.
That may be true for an owner / management that truly cares about keeping up their tables and cares about their customers having properly maintained tables, but clearly that is not the case here.
Grateful that this doesn't apply to me (yet), but may we have a moment of silence for our cue brothers and sisters forced to play where the empty head behind the bar has no concept of why tables would need to be cleaned, and the nearest choice is forever away?
Matchups on Ft. Collins uses a roomba??. Round rechargeable vacuum does it on it's own bouncing off the cushions.
They have a couple of them but they never charge them or use them

There is absolutely no excuse that any poolroom that charges customers to play on their tables can’t spend 2-3 minutes per table every few days to keep their tables wiped down and vacuumed.
I have one at my home that I use on a billiard table. Rechargeable, I put it on the table and let’er go.
I learned that from Bill Young (Chalkbox), works well!

Quality of the vacuum is in question as well. The nozzle could easily be dirty or somehow contaminated. Also the sudden noise can cause costly errors elsewhere in the room. One more caution, if the table is really dirty, vacuuming it will leave the sticky cloth with no lubricating layer of dust.
Whatever you get, consider buying it on Amazon with free returns.
When I was shopping for a corded vacuum for my table about 10 years ago, I bought 3 different brands to try. One was horrible. It was unbalanced and loud as hell. The second was ok. The third was much higher quality and was smoothest and much quieter.

I'm guessing Goldilocks was your fave book as a kid.
