It's great for picking up on Harwood floors..but throws around the debri...but can turn it in different directions to pick it up..love the swivel action

Works well on smooth surf, not on carpet.

This is probably my 3rd max sweeper..what is going on with the handle length..its about 3 or more inches shorter than my prior ones...I had to switch 2 handle rods from older one but still lil shorter cause I didn't switch 1st piece which has the battery holder as I wanted to use new one on that piece, which is also shorter than original..I hope these are not rejects or is the company cutting down on material..I still like using for quick pick-ups inbetween regular vacuum...just a lil disappointed
