As Seen On TV Swivel Sweeper for Floors Vacuum Review

It was a rare moment that I had to myself when my toddler son was taking a nap and I was mindlessly watching awful t.v. shows on a Sunday afternoon.  I knew that I should be doing more productive things, but man, was I beat!  That was when a very promising product came on t.v.- the Swivel Sweeper.  I got sucked into spending a precious hour of my free time watching this infomercial.  The Swivel Sweeper offered everything I needed.  I have hardwrrod floors throughout my house and have a few area rugs also.  In one room I have a problem with the cat traking her litter.  Also, with a toddler he can be quite messy dropping his cereal snacks on the floor.  Hence, I knew I had to have this product! The infomercial stated the sweeper would pick up messes on wood floors and carpets.  I was so sick of brooms and dustpans and did not want to lug out the heavy vacuum cleaner for my few area rugs.  I was sold!  I waited impatiently for the product to arrive.

It arrived, I assembled it, and charged the battery for 24 hours.  Then I used it in my kitchen.  It picked up beautifully...for three minutes.  Then the battery died.  I let it charge for another 24 hours, and then I began to use it again.  I could use it for two to three minutes tops and then the battery died. 

This is so incredibly frustrating.  I feel like this was a total waste of money.  I wish I had read reviews on other sites.  This seems to be a very common problem with this product.
