Great design of the backpack vacuum, so you can easily carry it around. Even using it to suck the dust and spider webs above you is not a problem at all using this backpack vacuum. Imagine, how hard you could do that with a normal vacuum.

The common problem that I usually have with a vacuum cleaner is its power cord. Regardless how long the power cord is, you’ll easily get it tangled up. Unfortunately, the backpack vacuum does not come with rechargeable batteries. It still needs to be hooked up to a power outlet via a a retractable 26 foot power cord. Expensive, costs $169.00 at Taylorgifts.
