Pretty powerful pick up! I was surprised at just how well it works. Very lightweight and easy to carry from room to room, including upstairs. Even my 7 year old can get it up the stairs without struggle. Charge seems to last for quite a while. Easy to store and makes a nice little addition to our craft room for easy clean up if we have spills. My wife seems to like it being in there. Haven't really tried to use it for heavy duty clean up, like pet hair. If I do, I will update my review.
