I bought the cordless stick vacuum mostly for the tiled hallway and the two small rugs in the living room. After thirty days of using it every other day, I have a clearer picture of what it does well and where it falls short.
The suction on hard floors is genuinely good. It picks up cat litter and crumbs in one pass, and the brush roll doesn't tangle with hair as badly as my old corded model did. The battery lasts about twenty-two minutes on the standard setting, which is enough for my flat but would be tight for a larger place. I timed it twice, and the advertised thirty minutes only holds on the eco mode, which feels noticeably weaker.
The dust bin is small. I empty it after every second use, and the filter needs a rinse once a week to keep the suction steady. That is not a dealbreaker, but it is worth knowing before you buy. The wall mount is easy to install and holds the unit securely, though the charging cable is a bit short if your outlet is far from where you want to mount it.
What surprised me most is how much I reach for it for quick cleanups. It is light enough to grab for a spill or a dusty windowsill without dragging out the bigger machine. The crevice tool clicks in firmly and does not fall off mid-use, which was a problem with a cheaper stick vac I tried last year.
Would I buy it again? Yes, but only if my space stays under about sixty square metres. For a larger home, the battery and bin size would frustrate me. For my current setup, it is a solid everyday tool that does exactly what I need without fuss.
