I am truly amazed at the suction power of this smaller stick vacuum cleaner. I have used it to go over my area rugs, kitchen area, and in the car. It really picks up dirt, dust, pet hairs, and crumbs better than any other similar stick vacuums that I have used in the past. It is so light weight and easy to use. All the parts assembled easily and can be separated easily as well when using just the hand held part. The filter and cup are easy to empty too. I love how well it glides across the rugs and floors as well. The best part is the superior suction power though. It really gets deep down dirt. Great for a quick clean up or full on clean. Even though I received a free product to try, these opinions are true and 100% my own.
