On tile and wood, this vacuum is a demon for dirt. It picks up everything—pet hair, crumbs, even that mysterious pile of sand your shoes tracked in. I tested it on a rug, too, and it did okay, but it’s no carpet steamer. The duo-clean technology (soft brush roll + bristle brush) is clever; it grooms the floor while it vacuums, which sounds fancy.
But here’s my gripe: the brush roll can sometimes fling big debris if you’re not paying attention. I chased a stray Cheerio across the kitchen like it was a race. So, keep the speed steady, and you’ll be golden.
