It’s no Dyson BUT…,
So, I have learned not to spend a lot of money on shiny, new cleaners loaded with all the bells and whistles. I don’t care if it gives my husband a massage and cooks me dinner; I just want it to be cheap, easy to wrangle, and suck like an old-time Hoover.
The pros:
* This canister is super light.
* The portability makes it easy to carry up and down stairs.
* The extended tube allows for easy cleaning of ceiling fan blades.
* The machine is relatively quiet.
* More versatile than a dust buster.
* Comfy strap
The cons:
* The cord could stand to be a big longer.
* The attachments do not stay on the machine, no matter how hard you try.
* The suction is good but not great.
*** BONUS: WE’VE HAD IT IN OUR HOME for two months and we haven’t killed it yet.

|Versatile Portable Vacuum with Strong Suction,
I found this vacuum very useful for the following tasks: 1) stairs; 2) ceiling and walls; 3) blinds; and 4) ceiling fans. It is also good for quick, spot cleaning.
It has strong suction. It does a good job on our stairs, which are hardwood with a carpet runner—much better than a large upright falling on your head (twice). The vacuum performed perfectly getting cobwebs off the ceiling and walls and dust off the blinds and ceiling fans.
The wand extends easily at the push of a button so you can reach high places or the floor without bending over. The cord is long enough to reach up an average sized staircase, and it wraps around the base of the unit when not in use.
In my mind the unit has a couple of design flaws. I wish that it had a handle to hold to use while vacuuming. I found myself not quite knowing where to hold the wand to vacuum. Also, the vacuum does not hold all the attachments. The attachments and wand are held on by friction, not locked on, so sometimes they do fall off while in use.
I have had occasion to review several vacuum styles in recent months. I really liked a stick vac I received not too long ago, but this design probably works better on stairs, ceilings, and walls. While a dustbuster is cheaper, this is more versatile and provides stronger performance.
Despite a couple of annoying aspects to the design of this machine, it performs well and is more useful for the tasks listed above than a dustbuster or full-sized vac. I expect I will use this on a regular basis. Recommended.
