I live in a one bedroom apartment so I don't need a big fancy expensive vacuum. I have two dogs that drop A LOT of fur and I have to sweep almost 3 times a day. I read the reviews and I saw that it worked great. Guess what? IT DOES! It got all the fur and dirt from my carpets, floors, and even my rugs. I love this little power vacuum. So happy I purchased it and happy it was so inexpensive.
