this thing be so handy , especially since I recently move and have little thing to clean up here and there . I find myself reach for this far more than my big vacuum and it get the job do . I clean my a\/c vent , clean the stair , spot clean the carpet when my little one make a mess . I clean the car with this and I must say that be the first time this give I trouble . I have crumble bit of leaf in my trunk and on the floor of my car but it be not pick it up . I use the attachment with the brush at the end thinking that be most appropriate but apparently not . I decide to use the pet hair removal attachment instead -lrb- since I have never use it before -rrb- and that do the trick ! all the leaf , every little bit , be go ! the only thing I would improve be the battery charge light . perhaps make it change color when it be do charge ? I see other complain that it lose its charge too soon but I do not have that issue . I do my whole car -lrb- trunk , floor and seat -rrb- all without need a recharge and suction power be fine the whole time . I have have this for one month however so maybe as time progress it 'll lose more power . I 'll update my review if this be the case . Edit 8\/7\/2011 - I have have this for a year and a half and it still work great , have not lose any suction . we use this often , more than I think we would , and it keep chug along .
