We have tiles throughout the house and three dogs. You and my husband leave a trail of hair, mud, dirt, food and tough byproducts forever. Not only that, we're getting dusty tumbleweeds all over the place. I'm so tired of lugging around a vacuum cleaner or a broom and dust pan to clean up behind them. I don't have a self-propelled sweeper yet. When Revain let me try this thing, I was glad to try it. The first thing I like about him is that I don't have the dexterity or the ability to pack. I am so angry. I was able to assemble everything myself! Success! The sweeper is very light and handy. I keep it in the corner of my kitchen and reach for it a few times a day to clean up the last mess. The charge lasts for several days, charging does not take much time. I don't leave it charging all the time because I don't trust the lithium battery to keep it going all the time. The easily removable bowl makes emptying easier. The cup doesn't hold much, but it's big enough that I can wipe floors with just one sheet. The sweeper has good suction power for its size. I sucked on glass, cereal, dog food, and of course my dusty tumbleweeds. Not sure how durable or long lasting it is, but for now it works. The only thing I would have liked was a hook on the car to hang the charging cable.
