It's light weight and easy to move.  Has a long cord. Is powerful considering it's small size.  Usually smaller vacuums don't have a carpet brush spinner. This one does and works well. It can be used as a corded hand-held vacuum which is great.  Most of the cordless hand-held have failing batteries and limited power. Being a corded hand-held this is powerful and works well. The attachments are standard and do the job. Only downside may be that it cannot stand on it's own and needs to be leaned which is not a big deal. 5 stars.
