I really dig this little vac . it reach into space that would be inaccessible with any other hand vacuum I have see . it be very convenient to be able to set the canister down , or hold it in you other hand , as you vacuum -lrb- especially for door jamb and other place that require a reach -rrb- . I find it to be perfect for clean up my little apartment . after read other review , I expect the battery life to be worse than it be , though I do wish vac like this come with adaptor . I recommend it .
