I received this vacuum for FREE in exchange for my honest review. WOW! This vacuum is Small, Lightweight, but Very Powerful. It comes in 3 pieces and was easy to assemble, and did a Great Job cleaning my 750 sq. ft apt after sprinkling carpet deodorizer on it. I also liked that it was small enough to get through small spaces (under my bed and couch) and didnt make much noise. I also liked not having to drag around a cord and plugging and unplugging in different parts of my apt. It made vacuuming easier and more pleasurable. The only thing I did not like was having to charge it 6 hours before using. I wasnt aware of this function upon receiving the item and was a bit disappointed when I could not use it immediately. I think having the vacuum already charged, even for simply an hour just to be able to start upon unboxing would be helpful. I only used it once, but I'm curious how long the 6 hour charge will actually last. Otherwise, this is an Awesome vacuum!! BUY IT!!!
