I was really looking for a cordless handheld vacuum (vacuum type) when I saw this model which featured an upright canister vacuum with a detachable handheld vacuum the price was right only slightly above that of a hand-held vacuum cleaner. It seemed like a nice feature so I went for it. After use, this vacuum cleaner has its advantages and disadvantages. ADVANTAGES: Very light and handy for quick cleaning in between with a normal corded vacuum cleaner. Suction power and performance on hard floors are acceptable. The battery charge is currently sufficient for 3-4 rooms of medium and large size. The ability to detach the handheld vacuum for small dry spills and upholstery cleaning is a handy feature. CONS: Doesn't do well with pet hair on carpets. Due to the small waste container, the vacuum cleaner must be emptied frequently during use. The charging station is poorly constructed. The vacuum has a bowl-shaped groove on the back of the stand that fits onto a hook on the charging station's vertical stand (see photo). The electrical charging contact is made when the cup on the back of the vacuum cleaner engages with the hook on the charging station. The problem is that the charging station is so light and slippery that it slides across the floor when trying to hook the vacuum cleaner, making a simple one-handed (standing) assembly more difficult than it should be. Since mine is kept in a closet, I intend to mount the base to the wall with screws to solve this problem. Adding some anti-slip pads to the bottom of the base may also work. Plus, the crevice tool and brush heads are stored on the back of the docking station (an added downside). A better design would be to snap them onto the vacuum itself for easy access when needed. Although this vacuum cleaner will stand upright by itself if carefully balanced, in this state it is unstable and falls over very easily. SUMMARY: Overall I am happy with this purchase as it fulfills my desired function by providing a convenient and quick cleaning experience. in between regular deep cleaning with my large mains vacuum cleaner. Just don't expect this product to replace your regular corded vacuum for everyday cleaning (especially pet hair on carpets and rugs) unless you live in a small, hard-floored apartment.
