I got the handheld cordless (!) vacuum and I absolutely love it. I usually hate to vacuum, I don't want to pull out the big one and have to unravel the cord, then listen to the loud vacuum up pet hair. I have 3 cats and a dog, so there is continuous pet hair. The handheld onepwr is perfect to get the hair from my floors, stairs, furniture, whatever you have. It's not too loud, but still picks up everything I tried. And it's not too heavy, so I can go around the house and pick up whatever needs to go. The only complaint it have is, I wish there was an longer attachment to reach the floor so I wouldn't have to bend over as much.
