Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner - 450W 40Kpa Powerful Suction, Up to 50Mins Rechargeable Battery, 8-in-1 Lightweight Anti-Tangled Handheld for Hardwood Floors, Carpets, Pet Hair, Home Use

I dont know that I would recommend this for everyone, but it was perfect for my needs. I seriously doubt the price markdown is real, and think that is more of a gimmic. i would not have paid that price. it might have even been high at the price I paid. I had hip surgery and needed something light that I could use on the non-carpeted portions of my house, which are the high-traffic living areas. It is so light and easy to use, gets under things like no other vacuum I've ever had. I don't think a charge would last as long as it says, but it lasts long enough for what I need. I can't belive how easy it makes my life, especially after surgery. i decided to try it in the carpeted bedrooms and was surprised at how good it actually did work. Nothing like my big main vacuum, but I didn't expect it too. i just can't use my big one right now, and this is such a perfect supplement. Plus, it is purple!! My favorite color. i am so glad I got this!
