We have an "other brand" stick and bought this for our RV. It works just as well as the other one except this is a lower model and doesn't tell us how much battery life is left - not a big deal as the battery lasts a long time even tho we don't keep it on a charger in the RV. It's perfect for what we need. Would highly recommend!

Just an absolute pleasure to use for quick pick ups. The motor is strong enough to pick up things you didn't know were there, and the sound output isn't too bad. The dustbin empties right into the garbage can, and the battery lasts for several sessions before needing a top off.

I bought this vacuum as a backup for the upstairs in my townhouse. The reservoir where the dust goes is very small, so it would not work in my downstairs because of pet hair, but upstairs there are no pets and it works. Great! I empty it after each room and it seems to do the trick. I have used it on low speed on a Persian rug so it would last longer. I've only used it a couple of times, but I haven't had to recharge it yet. It's a winner!

We've been abusing this vacuum with 2 German Shepards that shed fur a lot! When picking up large piles it can sometimes get stuck as it enters the main part or at the top of the clear canister. Easy to unclog. As we've been staying on top of it more it's less of an issue. I was unsure at first of a new brand but this thing definitely works. Great transitioning from carpet to hard floors. The battery is in an unmarked box. Open all cardboard.

So far, so good...wanted a stick vacuum and I really like the 3 power settings. Lots of wood floors with area rugs. Suction is good, edge clean is good and does a great job with cat hair. Hoping Karcher puts the hard floor cleaner on sale!

Very nice vacuum cleaner with the price. Makes less noise and happy with the way it is designed. I wish it had display to see how many minutes remaining display before I can change.

I bought this vac to hang in a kitchen cabinet for quick cleanup after meals It has no problem with anything from crumbs to dog hair The swivel floor attachment easily gets around corners and under chairs.

The VCN 3 is lightweight, cordless, and effective, so I'm prone to grab it instead of my corded vacuum cleaner. With the agitating floor brush, the vac is really effective at picking up debris I didn't think it would have the power to pick up. The container is very easy to empty, too. I wish, though, that I would have purchased the VCN 4 or 5 so that I would get a battery level indicator.

I love the VC3 vaccum. It is light weight compared to the competitors and does the work perfectly. Only down side is the battery life not so great on low setting too. I have a friend using the same product and their battery run time is pretty good. I may have gotten a bad battery but for the price it is really an excellent product.

Has the opportunity to try this vacuum. It was very light which significantly improved the portability aspect. However, the motor was certainly not as powerful as advertised. If it wasn't for the sale, I wouldn't pay the original price for this.
