This stick vacuum really exceeded my expectations. I have lots of pets, and lugging out a big vacuum to go over my hard floors was always a chore. This little powerhouse ended that struggle. Even on the max power setting, it has plenty of battery to handle my kitchen, my family room and the entryway. It really does a great job with picking up animal fur. I also really love to option to add some essential oil to the little pads to make it smell nice as I clean. Mounting it to the wall was really easy and I find that it recharges pretty quickly. This is an amazing vacuum and I would highly recommend it
