I really loved the fact that this vacuum was rechargeable. It charges pretty quickly but the battery life isn't very long. It's really easy to assemble and take apart, also it's not heavy and can be taken just about anywhere in the house. The floor part of the vacuum is amazing, it suctions everything easily, the handheld part didn't seem to be as great though. The biggest drawback to this vacuum I found is that you have to stop every couple of minutes to empty the canister because it's so small and fills up quickly.
