Decent price beats dyson vacuum
I bought a dyson v6 fluffy at $300 about 2 years ago, But it pretty good but expensive! This MOOSOO cordless vacuum cleaner is less than 1/3 dyson's price. however it does excellent vacuum performance than I expected. It has great power suction picking up anything, especially pet hair in the corners. I also love the running time that offers up to 25 minutes cleaning while dyson just has only 30 minutes. Highly recommend this one.

handy cordless vacuum for floor and handheld usage; very affordable
Full disclosure: this product was sent to me by the seller to test and review. They were promised a thorough and honest review, but no promises were made about how high a rating I would give their product.This MooSoo 2 in 1 Cordless Stick Vacuum is designed to function as both a floor vacuum and a handheld vacuum using cyclone technology for suction. The vacuum arrives nicely and securely packaged in a cardboard carton with an insert to keep each part safe from shipping damage. Each part is also wrapped in plastic. In addition to the stick vacuum, enclosed in the box are a nozzle with a clever crevice tool and brush on it for handheld usage, a handy tool to help remove hair and strings that might clog the brush head, a wall mounting bracket (including screws) for the vacuum, a rechargeable lithium ion battery with an AC adapter/charger, and a printed owner’s manual. Minor assembly is required to use the vacuum in either the floor or handheld configuration, but assembly is quick, easy, and pretty intuitive. Everything fits together exactly as described in the manual.Like many products these days, this vacuum is made in China. The manual is printed in English, is easy to read and understand, and is well-illustrated. It is recommended to charge the battery for at least 5-6 hours prior to using the vacuum for the first time. The battery can be charged either installed in the base power unit (referred to in the manual as the “engine”) or by itself. If you charge the battery in the base, though, a large blue light on the handle will display charge status. There is no mention in the manual as to whether or not the battery can be safely left charging indefinitely between uses of the vacuum. In general, though, lithium ion batteries tend to retain their charge at rest for a long time, so it would probably be safest to leave the battery off the charger except when recharging is needed after usage.After charging the battery, I first tested the vacuum in its floor cleaning configuration. Even when fully assembled with the battery the vacuum is extremely lightweight and easy to carry and move around. The floor cleaning head is designed to swivel easily, and the vacuum can be lowered to about a 25 degree angle for cleaning underneath beds, etc. A really nice feature of this vacuum is the extension tube can be locked in the upright position on the floor head for easy storage. The vacuum is turned on/off with a trigger switch on the handle of the base unit. Pulling the trigger once will turn the vacuum on at a low suction setting, a second pull increases it to high suction, and a third pull turns it off. You do not need to keep pulling the switch while vacuuming, which is nice. The floor cleaning head has a brush that spins when the vacuum is turned on to facilitate cleaning. The brush is easily removed from the base for cleaning or to remove debris by pulling back on a switch on the bottom of the floor cleaning head. It is also very easy to replace the brush into the cleaning head. There are a series of LED lights on the front of the floor cleaning head that light up while running the vacuum. I used the vacuum on both hardwood flooring and rugs in our home. The low suction setting did not work well for this, but it did work well on the high suction setting. The manual doesn’t discuss this, but I suspect the low suction setting is intended more for vacuuming curtains or light materials that might otherwise get sucked up and stuck in the vacuum on a higher suction setting. Even on the high suction setting this vacuum did not seem to have the same power of suction compared with other models of cordless floor vacuums I have tested previously, but it was certainly adequate to do a good job cleaning both the hardwood flooring and our rugs. We have 5 indoor cats in our home, and it sucked up a lot of pet hair. I vacuumed our kitchen, dining, and living room areas, and the battery was still going strong.The collection bin on the power unit filled up very quickly after vacuuming these areas, so you do need to keep an eye on how full it is getting while vacuuming. The HEPA filter sits in the middle of the collection bin which greatly limits its capacity to hold vacuumed debris. The bin is very easy to empty by holding it over a trash container and pressing a button on the bottom which will cause the bottom of the bin to flip open and empty its contents. Pet hair seemed to stick inside the bin, so I still had to reach inside and pull much of it out. Inside the collection bin is a plastic housing that is easily removed by twisting it around about 90 degrees. This allows the HEPA filter to be removed. The HEPA filter is surrounded by a mesh pre-filter held in place by Velcro. The pre-filter gets pretty clogged up, but it is easy to clean by removing it from the HEPA filter, brushing off the loose debris with your fingers, and then rinsing it under water. It needs to be dried before reinstalling it into the vacuum, and I found this easiest and fastest to do by pressing it between two paper towels. It can then be easily fastened back onto the HEPA filter and secured with its Velcro edge. The HEPA filter is then replaced into its receptacle in the collection bin and secured in place with the plastic housing. It sounds complicated but is actually very quick and easy to do.I next tested the vacuum in its handheld configuration. The nozzle attachment simply slips onto the nose end of the power base. Built onto the nozzle attachment is a small brush head. It is not explained in the manual, but the brush head can be slid up or down on the nozzle attachment by pressing a small nub on the housing for the brush. It can be locked in place in either the up or down position. When locked in the down position the nozzle attachment has a crevice tool that enables vacuuming between cushions, etc. The small brush really worked well with the vacuum to remove dust from small areas and to clean debris from small areas like computer keyboards. It's handy to remove dust from vents in electronic equipment such as my home audio receiver. The brush is really too small to be of much value for anything else, though. In its handheld configuration the vacuum suction is much better than all of the cordless hand vacuums I have used up to now, especially on the high suction setting. The only negative is there is not a wider nozzle or brush attachment included with this vacuum which would have made it much more useful as a car vacuum or to vacuum chairs, upholstery, and stairs. The absence of an attachment like this really limits the utility of the hand vacuum. MooSoo would be wise to consider adding such an attachment to this vacuum as it would make it much more versatile and useful.Overall, I like this cordless vacuum. It could be improved significantly with an additional handheld attachment as described above. At its current selling price of about $100, though, it competes very favorably with similar cordless vacuums costing up to $70 more. It does not cost a whole lot more than what many handheld cordless vacuums sell for these days. This would be an ideal vacuum for anyone living in a small apartment or dorm room. It also would be handy in larger homes for spot cleaning when using a bigger vacuum would be burdensome.

Not Bad.
I reviewed stick vacuums for about a week. Finally decided on this one based on other reviews and the fact that it had front LED lights. I wasn’t happy with the fact that I would have to plug it manually to charge. But that was one feature that I was willing to ignore if the vacuum performed well.When I first unpacked this vacuum, I noticed how it weights next to nothing. After a full night charge, I gave it a try. In my opinion the brush section is just not heavy enough. I understand that with some items. Less Weight equal better, but not in this case.One good thing about this vacuum is that I was able to clean under the beds. That was the main reason why I wanted a second vacuum. My current Shark Navigator freestyle just can’t go under the bedsI have 3 cats and two dogs, so daily vacuuming is a must. I sometimes vacuum twice a day just to keep things in check. The battery life is excellent but that is expected from a brand-new machine. My shark battery is down to 15 minutes. I vacuumed my entire house and the Moosoo battery was still going strong.Emptying the collector is like the shark. You open the door and the dirt falls out of it. Well at least it does on the shark. On this vacuum, the filter is inside the container and it prevents most of the dirt and animal hair from dropping out freely. I used this vacuum several times and each time. I had to take the entire filter assembly out to clean it.Don’t get me wrong. The Moosoo is not completely useless. It could be just right for someone with a small, apartment with no pets.I will look for other options.

Great vacuum so far, but with big design flaw that I corrected!
I bought this vacuum based on reading all the reviews posted on Amazon and it's really a nice vacuum, outstanding for the money!The one catch is not a small one. The engineers never considered the US market. For the diameter tubes that make up the vacuum input tubes/ports are not US standard for vacuum accessories!!Which means that you are limited only to the one attachment that the manufacturer supplied - which is way too small to use in hand vacuum mode.The attached photo shows my inexpensive and easy to implement solution. There is no modifications to the vacuum whatsoever. What you are looking at is a pool house coupler that I bought on Amazon for a few dollars:Swimline Hose Coupling, 1.25” – 1.5'' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004VU8NEK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_3gWvCbN2V5SBAOnce it arrived I took a heavy duty pair of scissors and cut it back on one side (take note where) so that it slips over the vacuum port/ tube. Now, any US standard vacuum attachment can be used easily and effectively.The manufacturer would serve it's customers well by supplying this adapter in the future in the original kit!We shall see how long the vacuum battery holds up over time.I hope that this helps you :-)Be Blessed!!
