I have a Rainbow vacuum cleaner which is wonderful, but which is a pain to set up. I have another stick vacuum cleaner that doesn’t work all that well. While I wasn’t so certain that I could find another stick vacuum that would both work well and would be easy to use, when I saw this vacuum, I decided to give it a try. So far it has worked out very well. This came in the smallest box (see picture). On seeing that I didn’t think it would really be all that useful, but I was wrong.The battery lasts a long time, more than enough to finish all of my vacuuming (even when it’s occasionally on the highest setting). Now that wouldn’t mean all that much if the vacuum didn’t pick up anything, but this one does. The vacuum is strong, and the brush really works (and is easy to clean). It’s also very easy to empty the dirt container (a single button push over the trash can), and cleaning the HEPA filter is not much more difficult.I wasn’t sure if the bendable wand would be useful or not, but it really is, especially when I’m trying to vacuum under something like my sofa or a chair. It has a built-in LED light that is very helpful. The attachments are useful. I especially appreciate that the upholstery brush stays extended when you’re vacuuming something. On a previous vacuum it popped closed at the slightest pressure.This vacuum cleaner will also stand up all by itself. Not it’s not a solid as a tree, but if you’re vacuuming and you need to leave it for a bit to do something else you can just set it up straight and it will stay there. That’s a nice feature.It comes with a small charger, a wall mount and paper instructions.
