I purchased this for use in the car and small spaces. It feels lighter and is smaller than most full size blow dryers. It has a push button to turn on and off. The unit is quite noisy.
Would I buy this product again? Probably not Why? It is overpriced for what it is and is not without flaws. At the price point it is not a product that I couldn't live without and would much rather just use one of my bulkier products to handle the tasks. So far I have used it to clean up small dust and dirt, pet hair, and drywall dust. All in small quantities to see how it handles them. As the dirt cansiter is right at the front, there is nothing to keep the dirt from falling back out if you are not careful carrying the vac. I have found that I love using this on the tops of our baseboards that have a wider ledge. I tried using the brush tip to clean trim so that I was not making contact with the plastic and chance scratching the wood. However, in doing this it is more or less dusting and sweeping the dust into the floor. So I just go behind and use my cordless vac to suck up the dust.
On it's own the vac has decent suction for what it is. However, pet hair and larger particles get stuck on the brush and the suction is not strong enough to suck it inside. This means you must continuously clean the brush to keep the airway clear if you have pets like me. When using for smaller particles the filter clogs up quickly as well.
To Clean the Vac you turn the front clear canister to unclip. The filter sits inside the canister so, to empty you need to remove the filter. Of course you will probably want to do this all over a trash can as the filter does drop dust particles. Then it all goes right back together with ease. So far I have used it to clean up small dust and dirt, pet hair, and drywall dust. All in small quantities to see how it handles them. I have also tried to use it to pick up dust and pet hair from leather furniture. It did a decent job but, I still felt like I needed to go back over them as I was more or less just pushing some of it around.
All in all, I think this would be perfect to keep in a car and clean up dust and such if done on a regular basis so that it does not get ground in.
