If you're looking for a good cordless vacuum cleaner, wait until you have more money. The options just aren't that low right now. My advice, if you're willing to wait for delivery, get Xiaomi Dreame XR. For $250-280 it can be compared to Dyson. Now this vacuum cleaner has LED lights, which I could never afford. It was really cute, it showed me every hair and dust under my bed. Also, the thing looks very futuristic, which I like! It's niche, but it reminds me of Aquatic Palace from a future video game. White and blue backlight - my favorite! For the casters, you need to unscrew the cover that protects the caster, then you can replace it. But I don't understand why you have to switch roles. Either you have an all wood home and are using hardwood, or you have a mix of carpet and hardwood and are using a carpet roller. Carpet roll... very tangled. Any hair and loose fibers picked up by this vacuum will roll around the roller instead of going into the dust box. Every time I vacuumed, I had to spend a decent 15 minutes picking hair and threads from carpets. On top of that, the bristles are not absolutely with the roller, but spaced. So if you want your carpet to get a thorough cleaning, you need to move around a bit and go over the same area over and over again. Speaking of rugs, he just can't pick up the tall plush. I have pets and the vacuum just can't pick up their hair. I can see my dog's black fur in the bolster, but when it's full enough he can't get out. On the low plush, the clean roller vacuum cleaner sucks so far when you start it for the first time that you can no longer see the top layer of dirt. I figured it might be salvaged by using it in my car as car carpets are little plush but the roll doesn't fit the edges. It just accumulates on a flat carpet and then it doesn't work well. The brush helps, but the suction just isn't there to pick up a lot of salt and dirt from the car (I live in harsh winters, salty carpets are a nightmare). Battery. Battery life is cordless product pedigree (I bet your phone's battery has less than 50% RN) and I'm happy to report that this vacuum has removable batteries! You're going to need it because it just can't last too long. I managed to tidy up my small room, bathroom and lobby before the battery died. To be honest I had to use turbo mode in the lobby because it's carpet. Nothing against Orfeld, I just can't recommend it. Either buy a $100 corded Bissell or Dirt Devil, or get a higher quality cordless vacuum. I have allergies so cleanliness is important to me. Who would I recommend this product to? I would recommend it to those who have a small apartment with hardwood floors (Miami is calling). The battery is enough to vacuum three rooms, and the futuristic look with LED lights is perfect for finding dust on a white tile floor. wet towel. This seems to be a disadvantage to me as I am very keen on keeping my vacuums in order and I soak the parts of a corded vacuum (Bissell PowerForce Helix) in water every week after cleaning. How to clean a dirty long pipe? Should I stuff the rag all the way in and hope he gets it all out? Speaking of liquids, it can't soak up spills (it's not designed for that, to be honest, so no downside). Let's get back to the good. This vacuum cleaner comes with a spare HEPA filter! And the wand design is awesome! Slide the bristles down to turn into a bristle attachment and slide back for a neat grip! Also the dock is good! It includes all the replacement nozzles and rollers included in the kit and is perfect for wall mounting. It also hides the cord so it fits snugly against the wall. Overall, I don't think Orfeld is to blame for the shortcomings. They try to offer a cordless vacuum cleaner to a wide range of customers at an affordable price. But the technology is too expensive right now, and if you're looking to replace your corded carpet and hardwood vacuum, this isn't it. If you are looking for a futuristic looking hardwood sweeper, this is definitely the one for you. My recommendations for a good cordless vacuum cleaner (from cheapest to most expensive): - Shark Rocket Pet Pro $220 - Dreame XR (not yet sold on Revain but Dreame V10 is sold) (personal choice) $250 - Dyson V11 $500-$800 My current vacuum (has been reliable for 3 years) is the Bissell PowerForce Helix.
