Title: OK, but Awkward
Product review: The reviewers that mention the noise are dead-on, this is the loudest vacuum I have used. The noise is not the reason for the low review, it is simply awkward to use. I was looking to replace an old electric broom for use on hard surfaces and stairs and the power stick is not a good choice. It picks up fairly well when the dirt is in its path but blows a lot around and is difficult to get into small spaces or against walls. I did not see any options in this class of vacuum with edge-cleaning but the lack of a swivel feature makes cleaning with this model harder than I expected. I have replaced this with a Hoover "Flair" and found it serves my purposes much better than the Power Stick.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
