I bought this about two months ago and use it about once a week in kitchen. It did a very good job of picking up dust, etc. but the plastic latch broke where you remove the canister to empty the dirt. No way to keep it together now.
I thought this product worked well but the first time I went to empty the debris it collected the nub broke off that holds the dirt receptacle. So disappointed ☹️.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this after reading on other websites how much everyone loved this Stick Vacuum. I'm so glad I did, it does a great job even with cat fur (4 cats) and best of all its very light weight.
Slim lined to fit under furniture. Can use as dust buster, attachments are easy on and off. Small enough to fit in a small corner for storage. Goes from tile/wood to carpet to throw rugs smoothly. I love much better than my Kirby for quick pick ups!
My sweeper arrived two days ago and I am i love with it. It cleans like a whiz and is very light weight, important to me because i have severe arthritis in my shoulders.
I bought this about a week ago and I opened it today, I can say the least this seems to be very durable and easy on my floors the suction is very strong, I would buy this again.
I LOVE this little vacuume cleaner all three of them!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Yes, I have three already and will probably have five or six before long! I use it for picking up crumbs from the kitchen or dining room floors, dirt tracked in the outside doorways, etc. It is very quick and easy to Why do I love it?: (1) It's lightweight. (2) Tiny footprint -- 5"x9" -- and can be parked anywhere in the house for immediate use w/o lugging out a heavy vac. (3) Works well -- maybe not up to the standards of normal household vacs or shop vacs. (4) VERY inexpensive. Six of these cost less than most ONE of any other vacuum cleaner. What don't I like about it?: (1) It's red. I mean REALLY RED. Of course, I'll never lose it in a dimly lit room! (2) I really don't like where the on/off switch is mounted -- down on the body between the handle-release and the dust container-release buttons. I suggest a redesign wherein a switch (possibly just a mechanical linkage to the existing switch) is up on the handle near my thumb. (3) I like the cord-wrap, but it could be improved by making one releasable so you don't have to un-wrap the cord. This is a standard feature on such machines, going back at least to the 1950's.
