Nice little vacuum for quick pickups.....you need a regular vacuum as well as this one...this is just for little jobs...but I like it, it works now that I have no animals.....would have liked to have had it years ago to see how it worked on pet hair, okay, so its close to 2 yes later still very pleased with this little vac..I just recently had to buy a replacement battery bcuz both batteries were losing their charge too quickly... Without a lot of effort or sweat, this Eureka does a super job
