I have a cordless power vac from a different brand and it's been quite good to me for years or so I thought. When I received this bissel iconpet vacuum I knew I was missing out this whole time. It's very powerful and picks up so much more then I thought my old vacuum was picking up. It's lightweight. Comes with several attachments that are very handy and everything hangs right on the wall all while charging at the same time. I also like the fact that everything is washable so your saving on filters in the long run. Simple and easy to use overall great product.
