well I should of known better when order this because it be a 50\/50 split on the negative and positive review . but I take a chance and order it . basically everyone who say this lack power be 100 % correct . the suction on this be not just weak but practically non existent . it sure sound like it will do something by all the noise it make but it would hardly even pick up a hole punch disc -lrb- the little circle you empty out of a hole punch -rrb- I even try a test to see if it would work and of course it fail . I just sprinkle a tiny bit of flour on my counter to see if it would suck it up . well no it sure do not . but all the air blow from the side vent blow it around all over the kitchen . LOL thankfully this be not expensive cuz if it be it would be go straight back . it be not the seller 's fault as they do not make the product . its Dirt Devil .
