I need something to reach the ceiling easily - this fits the bill very well.  We have ceiling fans in most rooms and I was tired of standing on a ladder to clean them - this is lightweight and super easy to maneuver - (I did use another attachment from my old machine get the top of the fan blades)  Baseboards are a breeze - no bending anymore with this.  I have popcorn ceilings (ugh) in most rooms - this gets all the dust out so easily - I was surprised to see it pick up fine cobwebs that could not be seen - so far all it removes it the dust and cobwebs - no 'popcorn' on the floor
