Although it's compact and lightweight, this little canister vacuum contains a 1,200-watt motor that produces exceptional suction power while offering the convenience of bagless operation. The canister measures just 14 by 9 by 9 inches and weighs about 10 pounds, light enough to be carried around by its shoulder strap for cleaning furniture, shelves, drapes, and lampshades. For vacuuming bare floors, carpets, and rugs while tagging along on its two wheels, the vacuum comes with a 10-1/2-inch-wide nozzle and two extension tubes. The nozzle/tube assembly connects to a curved wand extending from a flexible hose that attaches to the air-intake duct. Two other attachments are included: a dust brush and crevice tool.
The large, transparent dust cup easily unlocks from the canister for emptying. The dust cup has a detachable filter that can be washed when it clogs. A button on the vacuum's top automatically retracts the 17-foot power cord when pressed with foot or thumb, and the vacuum can then be stored either upright or flat. Either way, there is a method for locking the nozzle/tube assembly to the canister, and the attachments then slip onto posts attached to the tubes. The vacuum carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
