I bought the cute little Hoover Nano Lite last night at Walmart.  Plugged it in this morning and was hoping for a litlle powerhouse of a cleaning tool.  I was disappointed.  I have children and a cat.  It just didn't do well on my area rug especially.  It did okay on the bare floor with the tools......Thankfully I haven't given away my old one yet.  Now at least I can vaccuum again before I go back to the drawing board.I also could only go one direction on my area rug.  I tried to go the other way and it was soooo hard to push and the head bounced on the floor.
