I have the Wenko carpet sweeper ordered me at Amazon, because I found the price very reasonable. When I received it, I had to configure it once, that connect individual rods together and connect the carpet sweeper so. But then it went off. Since this is a very lightweight device, you can go without effort on the carpet. And the carpet is clean. If the Wenko carpet sweeper is full, it has below two flaps that can be opened and the dirt can be emptied through the garbage can. Then you can start right away again. First, it's fun without effort to sweep the carpet, secondly, it makes no noise and saves electricity thirdly. Since I have the carpet sweeper, I have developed a new tactic. First I go with the carpet sweeper on the carpet, then the coarsest dirt is gone and then I suck with a vacuum cleaner and my carpet is like new again. Above all, then the vacuum cleaner bag is not so fast. Top but the filter, if you have a bagless vacuum cleaner. I can only recommend the Wenko carpet sweeper.
