Abstract: Hardwood floors make any space look a little nicer, but they do require some upkeep to keep them looking new. That means a good cleaning regimen including, importantly, a great vacuum for hardwood floors.
Abstract: Stick vacuums are the perfect tool for quickly cleaning bare floors and low pile carpets when you don’t have the time (or the energy) to lug out your heavier, full size canister or upright model. As this category grows, you may also hear them described as pole vacuums. That's because many are now designed with a motor on top near the handle, which connects to a narrow wand or pole that then connects to the cleaning brush below. This upgraded format is more effective since it makes the vacuum super maneuverable and better able to reach under low furniture and around tables and chairs. The motored top often also does double duty as a hand vacuum that can be removed and used with or without attachments.
