The vacuum has a longer stick than many vacuums I have used. It is easy to use, but the battery power is not great.  To get any real suction, you need to put it on MAX and it drains the battery completely before the job is done.  I tried using it to suck up some hair on my bathroom floor after shaving my son's head and it took 2% battery life for maybe a 2 minute job.  I also couldn't get it to bring the hair into the tube without being on MAX.  His hair wasn't long to begin with, so it wasn't like it was picking up anything extreme.

When I have used it as a vacuum on carpet and not just through the stick, it picks up well on MAX, but again, it does only last for a short period of time.
