I have been searching for a cordless stick vac that actually has suction! Wow! This thing is intense! With six people, two cats, and a dog……my floors have to be vacuumed or swept every night. This makes cleanup easy and it actually CLEANS! The best part is the self emptying system! I hook it back on the stand and boom! You hear the suction as it empties into the larger reservoir. The colors are pretty too! I like to rose gold accents. Pretty and functional!!!!
