I'm on the lookout for a lightweight, cordless vacuum that I can effectively use outdoors, specifically on my terrace at the eighth floor. My goal is to grab dust and remove the leftover moss and weeds that get stuck in the gaps between the tiles. Sweeping is out of the question because a broom just can't reach all the dirt, and a pressure washer would only push debris into the drainage and under the tiles, which I want to avoid. I'm not interested in a big, professional vacuum—just something more like a handheld model that's sturdy enough for outdoor use. If anyone has recommendations for brands or models that are budget-friendly and practical for these kinds of tasks, or if you have alternative suggestions for keeping a terrace clean without spending too much time scrubbing, I'd really appreciate the input!

Have you thought about using a cordless blower? They work well for outdoor spaces and can help clear debris without all the hassle of a vacuum.
I use the Ryobi One handheld vacuum on my balcony, and it handles outdoor gunk quite well. It's not as powerful as a shop vac, but it's much easier to carry around and fits well into tight spots.
Is this the one you're talking about? I found it online and it looks promising!
But wouldn't you need to follow up with a sweep afterwards?
