Bissell AeroSwift Turbo Compact Upright Vacuum Cleaner - Lightweight Cyclonic Vacuum with Built-in Lifetime Filter - Perfect for Pet Hair, Carpet & Hard Floor Cleaning in Homes & Apartments

I recently purchased this vacuum due to having brought home a new kitty from The Humane Society. As any pet owner can likely understand, it didn't take long before my precious little fur ball started making quite the mess (and the mess was exceptional, considering how little this cutie actually is). I have all hardwood floors in my home with the exception of a few large area rugs and a carpeted staircase, so up until this point, I had managed to keep the floors clean just using a $20 mini-vac. In comes the cat. This kitty started to shed like crazy! Not only that, but she apparently really does enjoy kicking up quite the storm after using her litter box. I am telling you, there was loose litter every-freakin-where. The mini-vac stood no chance and I had to start looking into a better option.I don't have much in the way of budget for a vacuum, so when I saw that this machine was on sale and under $100, I figured that I would give it a try.I am so glad that I did! Very honestly, this machine works as good, if not better, than other much more expensive vacuums. I love that it is lightweight, bagless, and comes with a nice amount of accessories. The brush attachment lifts the cat fur off of my furniture effortlessly, and the suction power is fantastic. It works great on bare and carpeted floor, and to be honest, I have never seen my area rugs so clean. I suppose that my mini-vac didn't do as good of a job as I had originally thought.Overall, this is a fantastic vacuum, especially in consideration of the price. My only real complaint is that the hose slips off of the side port once in awhile but that is really about it. I would definitely recommend this vacuum if you need something that will easily get the job done for a far lower price than the more expensive machines that are on the market.Excellent vacuum, very impressed!
