I was hesitant to purchase. The price was under $20 so I figured it wasn't going to have much power. I was wrong. I needed something for cleaning up kitty litter and sand that's brought into the house. It works perfectly for both and even cleans carpeted stairs nicely. I am extremely satisfied.
I am a professional housekeeper I know a good vacuum when I use one . And I can tell you that I miss the old model I had 2 both cords broke but it was the best 3in1 vacuum this one right here has a double filter that fills up in less than 5 mins I have to constantly open it to take out the dust it's so annoying not to mention when it fills the vacuum gets louder and the sucction is not as powferful anymore . GO BACK TO THE OLD MODEL THIS ONE SUCKS BIG TIME .
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi liana88, We completely understand your frustrations. We will pass your comments along. Thank you!
I bought this vacuum to clean up all the fur my husky leaves behind. I have hardwood floors only (because carpets + dog fur = too much cleaning) and this little vacuum picked it all up. Does well with the dust attachment and picking up gravel with the hand attachment too. Does not do well on fabric surfaces so don't buy it for carpets. I emptied the basket once halfway and after I finished doing my 1 bedroom apartment. It stores really nicely; I can hide it between the fridge and the wall. Very happy.
I'm no longer able to use a big heavy vacuum. I have pets and need to vacuum quite a bit. it is also small enough that it is easy to store. If I could improve it a bit I would make it with a slightly longer cord and a larger filter. All in all though for the price I think it's a good vacuum.
Need filter for Model sd20000. Instructions say vaccumn uses filter F25.
I would recommend this to a friend!
