I had read previous reviews that indicated that this small handheld vacuum cleaner has good suction power. I suspected as much but it is a fact: it really sucks though. Very useful to the kitchen where a whole bunch of little "stuff" lying around on the floor or on the table. Easy to use, disassemble, recharge. The small brush is handy when it comes to "scrape" a little. Only small problem: it is a bit cumbersome.
