5.0 out of 5 stars 20 Bucks very well spent!!!, September 18, 2005

I hate vacuuming! It hurts my back and it's just an unfortunate necessary hassle. But with a house full of messy, fuzzy and feathered pets it's a very regular must! I was planning to get one of those roombas hoping to save me on the frequency of the chore but hearing reports that they break down didn't seem to make my problems any easier. My husband saw a swivel sweeper on TV but I feared it might be another "made in china" electronic susceptible to breakdowns. Remembering those little carpet sweepers from school days I thought this might be a good idea to keep up with the animals. It's a simple minute to assemble, and a few sweeps over floor or carpet and you can see the floor...no crumbs, no fluff, just carpeting. I was really surprised when I went to empty out the canister, another simple task, to find that there was more pet hair, feathers and other crumbs, kibbles and dust than I could see on the carpet! I can't even imagine how this could break which also gives a some piece of mind to know it's there when you need it. The bottom line: it's fast, effective, lightweight, easy to maintain and easy to store. No it won't replace your vacuum or get deep into the corners but it's a real help in keeping things neat, and a welcomed time saver. It has paid for itself in saving vacuum cleaner bags and electricity in no time, but I am especially glad for it having spared my back. A great gadget for households with pets and toddlers, and one I would highly recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars handy lightweight sweeper, June 30, 2004

By A Customer

i picked up the casabella carpet sweeper on impulse, as it's not very expensive and i struggle with keeping clean carpets in a home with dark rugs and two constantly shedding puppy dogs. it's one (rare) impulse buy i'm not regretting. while it can't clean as thoroughly as a vacuum cleaner does, it's a lightweight implement i can leave handy and use on my carpets frequently, helping keep them looking good between vacuuming. it reminds me of terrible old television ads to say it, but it's also a convenient shortcut to a presentable house (you may have seen these ads- worried housewife fretting as she hangs up the phone "my husband just called to say he's bringing the boss home for dinner, but i don't have time for a thorough cleaning and our home looks/smells dingy and musty! but thanks to some miracle product, it's suddenly fresh as roses and no one will know our secret shame!"). the carpet sweeper is no miracle, but if i need a cleaner house in 5 minutes, it's the first item i reach for. the brush picks up stubborn hair surprisingly well, i like that it's non-electric (one less thing to fuss with, not to mention it saves a bit of energy), and i like the spare, sensible, oddly atractive design.
my only complaint is the design of the levers on the base. to empty the collected debris you must push in a flap on either side of the roller brush and shake out the contents. the motion of the flaps is not very smooth, it's awkward to do with only two hands, and before i learned to keep my fingers away from the edges i got them caught painfully. despite this failing, i'm delighted with my carpet sweeper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than a vacuum!, September 4, 2007

This carpet sweeper is incredible! Lightweight and easy to use. Picks up cat hair and cat litter that I didn't even know was there. When I empty it, I am always amazed at what was picked up. Keeps my rugs looking great in between vacuum times...don't know how I lived without it. I recommend it 100%.
