I just bought this vacuum today and didn't realise how small it was, put it together and had to laugh at how cute it looked but then I tried it and was shocked at how well it worked! It worked better than my full size eureka. I have 3 cats & 1 dog and it picks up fur great on the high pile rug in the livingroom. Love it! It cost $75 CAD at Walmart.

These are awesome little vacuums. Although small and lightweight, the motor is powerful. To maintain it at peak performance there are things you need to do to it from time to time but the maintainance is simple and there are plenty if videos on KZbin to show you how. I like to one commenters advice to put a piece of felt on the other side of the sponge filter. I used a cut to size piece of heavy duty paper towel instead. After 2 uses replace it with another piece, simple. Thanks for your review! 😊

I purchased this product today and have been using it for the last hour It is lightweight, user friendly, and picked up a lot of dog hair. The canister part is small so I had to empty it quite often, but that is ok with me. I knew it was time to empty the canister when the pet hair and dust stopped spinning. Overall, I thik it is a nice vacuum for the price of 53.00 at Walmart. Just as a not, I have an expensive Dyson. This vacuum is very lightweight and easy on my 69 year old spine. I am glad I bought it. I watched your video when I got home and agree with what you said concerning it being lightweight and easy to empty. Thanks for the video. 😀

I LOVE my compact PowerForce!! I had recently bought a larger powerful One, but was experiencing trouble with my back, and decided to get a lightweight one. I LOVE THIS ONE!! It's POWERFUL & gets the job done, & it's SO much lighter & easer to move around. It's strong, easy to assemble, & I love being able to take it apart easily & wash it. I also added a fleece filter on the other side of the inner sponge filter. (there's already a white one on one end, but this one (just trace black sponge filter & cut to size) helps trap dirt, keep black filter cleaner, & I just wash it off & reuse it, with the rest of the stuff. (recommend you wash your vacuum often enough, after every or atleast every 2 uses) to keep dust & dirt from eating into parts & wearing them out earlier. It's well made, strong, durable & I bought ANOTHER as a gift for an elderly lady who LOVES hers too. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AMAZING VACUUM CLEANER!!

I recently found a Bissell power force compact model 2112R by a dumpster. I cleaned it out, but the belt is busted because brushroll is seized on it. The brushroll seized because it got jammed up with cat hair. Yeah it’s cheap and it’s light but you got to frequently clean the cat hair out of the brush roller. I might recommend this model for people in small apartments, who have no pets.

I thought that too, until I saw a video, and the hole, is to attach the hose to after separating it from the base, which creates a movable wand. Just put an attachment like the crevice tool on the other end, and you can do window sills, vehicle seats & floors, and other non floor places. It's really ingenious.
