Eureka 96DZ

Advantages: lightweight, rechargeable, cordless, bagless
Disadvantages: won't get heavy dirt.

I have had one for many, many years. They are convienient to store and they will do floors well and on carpet they are great hair picker-uppers. If you want cordless, this will do it. If you need small, here it is. If you want fair service, than look no further. I happen to like the fact that they are easy to empty the dirt you have obtained.

Disadvantages: not enough power

I do love that this vacuum is lightweight and cordless but as I was using it I didnt feel that it had that much power. It picked up in most areas except for areas with a high dirt volume. On the otherhand I liked that my kids could use it too because it is not so big and bulky. Another thing I noticed was that its not a good vacuum if there are some shedders in your family, whether it being girls with long hair or animal hair. Overall though I think ...
...of its nice size, it fits just about anywhere. For our family it is a perfect vacuum when you are trying to get up a mess in a hurry, not for doing the whole house. Its a perfect vacuum if you lived in an apartment or a home with smaller space. ... Read review
