I bought this vacuum for quick pick ups and for in between deep vacuuming. It's perfect for cleaning up small spills from my toddler and can be easily stored in my closet. It has really good suction for a smaller vacuum and can used for the stairs! Which is a great feature since we have a lot of stairs in our home. It's quick release cord is easy to use and the entire vacuum barely weighs anything. It can also be emptied very easily!! This is a perfect vacuum for quick cleans. I would recommend this to anyone that would like something small to help keep your house clean without having to pull out the big vacuum!
