I purchased the product specifically to deal with voluminous Jack Russell Terrier dog hair shedding all day!!! I was at my wits end. No matter how much I used bono dust pads, brooms, and then having to pull out the corded vacuum, what a chore!!! I needed a cordless and lightweight vacuum that would do a great job. Well, this is the perfect product. NO MORE DUST PADS, CORDS COMING UNPLUGGED AND REPLUGGING FROM ROOM TO ROOM. The product has powerful suction, dog hair GONE! I get about a week's worth charge if not more with the battery. I am so enjoying this vacuum and much stress from constantly dealing with dog hair all over the house is GONE!!!
