Bissell® Featherweight™ PowerBrush Vacuum, 2773A

Bissell's Featherweight PowerBrush (2773A) is very light, and it still has a motorized brush roll, which is unusual at that weight. It's a corded stick vac with three ways to use it: as a stick, as a high-reach vacuum with the foot taken off, or as a hand vac once you pop the Quick Release Handle. Bissell lists 600 watts and says it works on carpet, area rugs, hard floors, stairs and upholstery. The filter is a disk type and the only tool in the box is a crevice tool. Bissell also suggests keeping the foot on in hand vac mode for stairs. The dirt cup holds 0.7 liters, which is small. It handles hard floors, small rugs and light carpet well, but it often doesn't pull dirt out of carpet, so a carpeted home still needs a bigger vacuum. Being corded, it never runs out of battery, but you're always within reach of an outlet, and no cord length is listed for it.
