I don’t know how I got along without this!  It’s light weight allows for easy maneuvers and the swivel head makes getting in tight spaces a breeze!  It has really strong suction which helps with pet hair and spider webs in those hard to reach spaces. It has extra attachments for upholstery and tiny spaces so it works great for the car as well. It’s easy to empty the holding canister too. All of the pieces snap together so easy. The cord is long enough to do more rooms before having to stop to unplug and move. I don’t know what took me so long to get one!
