The basic technical problem with these things (at lest the ones I've seen) are all battery powered. And you simply can't get a great deal of suction (i.e. effective cleaning) out of a battery powered unit the size these are. This is a similar reason for why home carpet cleaners can't compete with truck-mounted pro steam behemoths. -- Todd H. http://www.toddh.net/ |

After a few days of noticing it didn't pick up a piece of lint on the carpet.. even after it rolled over it.. I got fed up with the thing, and tossed it. They are nothing but gimmicks.. live and learn. lucy |
