These things.
Cordless vacuums.
Absolutely useless,rubbish.
This one lives at my partners house. It complains if it has to pick up anything heavier than hair or dust. The roller has to be cleared of hairs every other time you use it and it’s suction is so weak the filter has to be cleared just as often or the dust stays on the floor too. Bread crumbs just stay put until you pull the thing back for the next sweep at which point they are dragged back and find a home on a different kitchen floor tile.
This thing has been crap from new and in terms of relative value my ancient Henry is off-the-clock, through the dashboard, down the road, tangentially away from planet earth and scorching a path through the centre of the andromeda nebula.
Henry cost me 85 spondoolies thirty years ago. All things being equal whoever made this [watch]battery-powered gnats fart of an appliance should be paying my mortgage off.
