Eureka mighty mite is pretty mighty for a little guy but could have a few improvement.  The power for it's size is more than enough and i'm definitely not comparing this to a dyson.  With that said, given the size, it would be nice if they have a better cord management system.  With the annoyance of dragging the house around, the cord is a bit annoying to loop & unloop from the bottom.  For whatever reason, the attachments falls off quite easily when vaccuming.  I needed this for a 8X10 area rug and this does the job just fine.  Just wished it's a little easier to use.
