Amazon.com Review To spruce up a hardwood floor or to tend to an isolated mess, Eureka offers this petite stick version of their Boss vacuum. Weighing less than 4 pounds, the 2-amp vacuum can be used as a hand-held dust buster or an upright sweeper for emergency clean up and lightweight dusting. In addition to the stick vacuum's light convenience efficacy, it features an allergen filtering, bagless design, thus reducing bag waste. The stick vacuum motor design features a special clean air system, where dirt travels around the fan blades to prevent any dust from blowing back out into the air and prolong the life of the motor. Dust collects in a easy-to-empty dust cup. A telescopic handle enables upright and hand-held use and is crafted for ergonomic comfort while vacuuming vertically on stairs or upholstery. A crevice tool and a floor nozzle are also provided. The vacuum cord spans a distance of 15 feet. This cleaning appliance is most successful when used on hard floors rather than dense carpeting. The stick vacuum is covered by a one-year limited warranty. With the telescopic handle down, the vacuum measures 5-1/4 by 6-1/10 by 25-1/2 inches and weighs 3-4/5 pounds. --Jessica Reuling

I have a cat in my bathroom and I really do not like sweeping the kitty litter every day - the broom would kick up dust and I would always miss a bit of cat litter. I needed something small, light that I could drag and buzz around the bathroom (hard surface) with. This fits the bill perfectly. It's not really quiet, but not too bad. I do not like the rechargeable stick vacuums because my closet does not have an outlet, and I really do not want to omit it and look at the thing. In addition, wired and powerful stick vacuum cleaners are often not exhausted, but you have to put up with a cord. This stick vac is basically a Dustbuster with a telescopic handle and a removable (bare) floor brush. It's not going to compete with a regular vacuum cleaner, but for light cleaning (eg cat litter), it works fine. I also use it on low pile carpets just outside the bathroom door to pick up some stray cat litter and it is most of what I do not think you want to use on thick carpet or for large areas especially in light of the floor nozzle, no brush - it is really designed for hard floors. It does what I need - no more kicking the dust and not litter in the bathroom (I use it every day). I am satisfied with my purchase. 34 of 34 people found the following review helpful. Better than full size. Because I CynBio through three full-sized VACS looking as good as this - my oldest, elite vacuum cleaner bag was so good at vacuuming, but much heavier. Both Hoover I have bought since then, with and without bags, are not half as good at getting up the dog and cat litter. So now I buy just one second from the bottom Boss. He also runs the couch cushions and other furniture - the only thing that does not do is go into every corner, as it has attachments I use this vacuum several times a week, because there is no "pull" or "TV network Cable "or other headaches to deal with - fifteen minutes, and the work is done. I would not recommend. 31 of 31 people found this review helpful. Good for Quick-vac pickup deserves four stars from Anrol is a complete revision of an earlier study in which I complained about the noise and dust are difficult to reach Cup - would now give it 4 stars but apparently not 'm not allowed to change my initial note in a "modification". Once I learned to the press at all, I find the cap is easily accessible. He did a good job to collect the cat hair and bits / pieces of the surface of the carpet and wood, glass powder contains a much larger number than I would have expected from a gap of this size. So light - easy to grip, a closet and give the house once more he would have given 5 stars if it were not so loud - I can wear earplugs when running. People seem to expect this vacuum to replace a full size carpet is being unreasonable - this is done a great job for what is intended. See all 56 customer reviews ....
