It took trying out 5 different brands of new rechargeable upright/handvac vacuum cleaners after my old one gave up the ghost, but Ive finally found one that does what I need it to do! Its not totally perfect, there are some design features Id change if it was up to me, but it does what I most need. PROS: 1. It vacuums floors and carpeting especially low pile carpeting efficiently including extracting pet fur. We have 2 old Siamese cats and an old long haired Australian Shepherd mix. They all shed more in their old age. This vacuum does a good job of surface to medium depth cleaning into the carpet fibers and collects the fur well. 2. The roller brush is removable for easy removal of longer pet fur that tends to wrap around the roller AND the roller brush DOES NOT allow a ball of fur to get easily lodged between the end of the roller and the drive gear and stop the roller from turning. For, the sake of good general maintenance, I am still removing the roller every 3 or 4 uses and cleaning off the roller and the rollers ends and drive gear. (*Note: I tried a model by Bissell which had ALL of the features I wanted, BUT the roller brush jammed up 3 times in a total of 6 minutes of operation. Id remove the brush and clear out a small ball of fur that got wedged in the drive gear, only to have it jam up again within a couple of minutes, so that one went back!) 3. Both High and Low Speed Suction work well and stay consistent till the battery gets almost depleted. I havent run it down to needing a full charge, but I have vacuumed 20 to 25 minutes non-stop without a significant suction drop. 4. The light is nice and bright. 5. It balances well in the hand and is not overly heavy and is easy to adjust for vacuuming under beds and dressers, etc. It can also stand upright by itself without the holding stand. In addition, the handle can be folded down. *This shortens the storage height of the unit, but does increase its width front to back. 5. The debris cup is easy to empty and wipe clean or wash and holds about a cup and half of debris before needing to be emptied. 6. The inner filter is the re-usable washable foam sponge type. 7. The combo wand/brush fits the handvac snugly and works well. CONS: 1. The handvac unit releases well from the handle unit, but there isnt a good grip point on the handvac itself to help with pulling it away from the handle, so extracting it is awkward. 2. The ONLY option for charging the unit is that you HAVE to use the floor stand, you cant plug the charging cable into the hand/vac part - as is the case with most portable vacuums of this style. This greatly increases the size of the units foot print. I could tuck my old rechargeable vacuum behind my kitchen door, but thats not possible with this one because of floor stand is so big. 3. There is no attachment point on the vacuum that can hold the combo wand/brush so that you have it readily accessible during your vacuuming activities. The floor stand has a built in holder for the wand/brush unit, but that means you have to remember to remove the wand/brush unit and carry it about with you manually while vacuuming or you will have to walk back to your charging floor stand to get the wand/brush, if you need to use it. 4. The floor brush section would be a lot more user friendly if had about another 1/8th inch of clearance from the floor. It does well at picking up smaller bits of debris, but to get up bigger bits like a cheerio, larger pieces of cat litter or a small piece of dried cat kibble about 3/8th inch in diameter, you have to pick the floor vacuums head up, position it in front of the larger debris, and then roll it backwards while holding the rear end of the brush section about a quarter inch above the floor. In effect you have to lower the brush head down on top of the debris. 5. The floor brush does reasonably well at sucking up debris on the side of the brush heads housing, but the suction there isnt as strong as it is on some other brands models. So there you have it! This one has all the major bells and whistles most folks will need, and it works well without any major drawbacks!

I have been thinking about writing this review since I first used the vacuum, but thought I ought to give it some time to be sure. We are surrounded by many pine trees, and the floor is always covered with them. I have vacuumed almost every day to keep ahead of the needles and the dirt in the wake of two toddler grandchildren. I truly love everything about this product. It picks up my long hair and winds it into a neat bun (really). We have hardwoods and carpet, and it works great on both. Along with a rotating brush, there is a squeegee that picks up dust on the hard surfaces. Plus, it has a light that shows dirt on the floor. Its much easier on my back, because its lightweight and effective. One tip: I ended up buying an extra filter package (2 filters) so I can wash the sponge filter whenever I want. Were doing some construction, so I need to pick up some really fine dust. I like to rinse it all out. Did I say I love it? Its really well made, works great, and is light. Perfect.

This my third vacuum that I have purchased. My family like it an had gifted two of them as everyone liked it s featured. I would definitely recommend this product.

All dirt in house, easy to move around plus battery lasts longer than normal

I bought this vacuum for where I work and loved it so much I got one for myself! It does fill quickly, but it works really well. The battery life is great compared to other cordless vacuums, and the handle folds down making it easier to store. I like you can pop out the main part to use as a hand vacuum. Overall a great product and I would strongly recommend!

I had an Anchor (Euphy) for many years and loved it. When the battery died it could not be replaced. The new vacuum is good but the canister is smaller and the charging base does not attach to the wall as I prefer. It is quieter than the old one. The battery on this one is replaceable which is good. I hope it all lasts as long as the previous one.

Unlike as advertised

We got this for our cabin. Its busy at times ad this works great on our hard woods and carpet. This is perfect for a small place. We use a solar generator and it keeps this charged with our using much of that power at all. Its great also because the body of the upright vacuum pops off easily to be used as a hand held. This isnt going to work well for heavy duty household work but good for a cabin, RV, studio, one bedriom place. No bags needed. You simply empty the cup into the trash. Take top off over a trash can for avoid spilling. We love it!

The rotating brush was not working. It was past the Amazon return time so I contacted the manufacturer 5 times and got no response. Not a bad unit but I didnt buy it to have defective product.

Was a fantastic vacuum for the price and functionality. Sadly it gave out after around 5 months. The handheld still works and it still charges, but the standup attachment has 2 issues: Lights dont come in Spinner no longer spins Gave it a deep cleaning to no avail. Found out one of the screws is corroded even though its never come into contact with any liquids. So my gut reaction is there was some sort of short somewhere thats when the electrical. Hoping to get it replaced via manufacturer. Pictures attached show both screws for comparison.
