I do not write many reviews and when I do its because either A the item is outstanding or B its dismal. Unfortunately for me, the reason for this review is B, its dismal. This featherweight Pro 2-in-1 cleaner does not live upto its "powerful" claim. It does pick up dog hair as other reviewers stated however this is the only thing it will pick up. I bought this item as an emergency cleaner due to my orginal bissell coming to its end, I wanted something quick ( I have two dogs) until I had completed my ususal research for my next cleaner. I actually clean better with my house broom than this little cleaner. The Pros are, it is light, small to store but for me that's all the good I can say, it has been a waste of money and time and maybe I should of stuck to a broom until I had decided on the next cleaner.
