Doesn't pick up pet hair
We were not at all happy with this item. It did not do what it said it would. I wanted something to pick up pet hair. Hoky suggested a different model which we also tried. Not so good either. We ended up with a Bissell at half the price and it does a great job. If you buy one be sure you understand two things. Check to see if the site will return your money if you are not happy with the product. The place we got if from wouldn't. Amazon took care of the problem. Second, the handle is really hard to take appart if you want to send it back.
This unit has rubber blades, not brushes!
Long story short...this unit doesn't work half as good as the original one that has brushes. I should have known better than to order the new improved product. Just think about a brush picking up something versus a rubber blade knocking something around, but not able to pick it up. The original is the one to buy. We ordered this one to replace the original that was 10 years old. The brush finally wore some over ten years. We made a mistake thinking the rubber blades would work. Stick with the original which is still sold. This one will probably be dropped from the Hoky line as the complaints come in.
Just what we needed
I have twin preschoolers, so I needed something for quick clean ups and didn't want to have to pull out the vacuum every 10 minutes. I had a small battery-operated vacuum, but my kids kept running the battery down until it no longer works. So, I love that this one is manual (no need to charge it!) I have used it under the table, on carpet, tile, and even outside on concrete to pick up broken glass. It is very handy. So glad I bought it.
