This small vacuum cleaner is used for cleaning up after my dog's meal. I agree with others that the suction isn't great, but with a brush that's from below it picks it all up. In fact, it performs better than my Black & Decker 15.6V cordless vacuum, which was useless (the suction power was poor, it needed constant charging, and most importantly, it collected little). Finally, I like that this little vacuum cleaner doesn't have a complicated filter. Very simple indeed, which is very easy toโฆ
