Perfect for daily clean up without having to drag the big vacuum out...I have 2 dogs, 3 cats and a parrot and could not be more happy with the performance of this stick vac...As I stated above you have to empty the cup often but that may be because we have so many animals...I really love this and so happy with this purchase and would purchase again...You cannot go wrong...
I love this unit because it is so light weight but yet cleans the floor and the tile in the kitchen easily. We have several bird cages...works great picking up all the empty seed casings!! The first one I had was PINK and it was a gift from a very dear friend of mine. This new one I purchased it myself! Bad arthritis prohibits me from pushing heavy vacuum around any longer. I'm almost 75
I had read the previous review before purchasing, but I decided to get it anyway. I am not sorry. I use it daily in the kitchen and laundry area, where I have a litter box. I have even used it though out the house between the big biweekly vacuuming. I love it. I always clean my vacuums after each use anyway.
Have 2, 10 years + with no problems. They get daily use. If they ever break I would buy another one. they will even pick up spilled cat litter, my rainbow has a hard time picking it up. with 7 cats I have lots of hair.
Perfect for a quick cleanup of our hardwood floors. Works well on our area rugs too. Nice suction power in a lightweight package. Handheld option is very useful. I highly recommend this stick vacuum!
I purchased this vacuum to clean down the carpeted steps, the basement floor - which is part laminate, part concrete - and 2 throw rugs. It works great on all these surfaces. When I vacuum down the stairs, if I want to get the crevices extra clean, I remove the floor attachment while leaving the handle in place, and it works like a car vac, but no bending over. To clean the interior of the car, I also remove the handle. It works so much better than any other car vac I have used, probably because it is electric instead of battery-operated. Another thing I love about this is the washable filter (I purchased some spare filters). The only other stick vac I have had did not have a washable one, so I had to beat it to get it clean and since I am on oxygen, not good for the respiratory system. With this vac, I empty the cup, place the dirty filter in a baggie (to transport it to the kitchen sink) and place a clean filter in the vac. I keep a screen-type strainer in the kitchen sink, so I don't have to shake the fliter. I just use a little dish soap to wash it and in a few seconds it comes out surprisingly clean, it dries fast and is ready to use again next time I need to change the filter. Mission accomplished with no dust. I love this vac.
HAVE 2 CATS SO NEEDED IT TO PICK UP HAIR AND ANY LITTER BITS FROM THEIR FEET. THE WHEELS FIRST SEEM TO BE HARD ON THE FLOOR BUT IT SEEMS OK. THE FILTER IS SMALLER THAN THE DIRT DEVIL ONE I PREVIOUSLY HAD.
