    Cons: Long wand falls off hose, small bags fill up quickly, bags are expensive

    Pros: Lightweight
    Cons: Hose needs to be longer and more suction power is needed

    Summary: My real complaint with it is that the hose needs to be longer and the suction power is terrible. You lose suction power when you add the extension attachment. When having to vacuum over your head, such as a ceiling fan or cobwebs in ceiling corners..It ... read more

    Pros: storage, cleaning ability, price
