As a vacuum hater with 2 cats and a dog I wanted to try something that didn't require tangling cords and a bulky machine that ruins my shoulder and back. Love it's lightness and ability to zip through the house in 10 minutes for daily touch ups. It reasonably lifts dust, dirt, fur, and crumbs. Takes 2 seconds to dump out in trash. I'd also buy this for less healthy or older people who can't get around as much. 

Pros: Light and easy for nearly anyone.
