Default *powerful* hand-held vacuum-cleaner (for stairs, etc)?

Good idea!

Never thought of it...


Only -- the hand-held has that rotating brush, like
all the uprights do. Without that, it's just
sucking; to get out the wee pebbles, etc, way down
into the carpet, that brush-action seems like it'd
be a help. (Else, why would the uprights use one,
and for the cannisters, the super-horrible-expensive
electrolux has one too. Unless its all pure hype?)


I *think* that I really want a more-powerful handheld.

Comments, anyone?
