I bought this mainly to clean up little kitchen clutter and dirt in the corners and bottom of my cupboards to collect that little dirt and food crumbs plus dust. I also collect spilled soil next to my potted plants. Got it today and used it once so far so good. I don't like a cordless vacuum as I don't use one for a car so I like a corded vacuum with no charging and battery life issues. Just plug it in and use the vacuum anytime. And I only need a crevice tool, no brush (need to clean the tangled hairs on the brush), no hose (not needed), so I went with these.
