Key Feature
All vacuums can be divided by several basic types of design. Canister vacuums are so named because their design is similar to a water canister (container with handle) and they have a long hose that allows for extra reach. Upright style vacuums are vertically standing vacuums, where the entire device is pushed over the carpet or floor. Stick vacuums look like stream-lined uprights. This design lacks the power of an upright or canister model, but they are good for small living quarters. Handheld vacuums are small, compact and lightweight and come with a narrow nozzle. They are good for general clean ups but lack the power for bigger cleaning jobs. Wearable or "backpack" models come with a shoulder strap or harness and can be carried around the house by the user. Robotic models are the newest type and are somewhat of a novelty. These vacuums roam around a floor space on their own. Central systems are a stationary type of canister vacuum cleaner which is usually mounted in the basement or garage. This design has a single powerful vacuum with pipe system outlets for every room in a house.\r\n
Bag Filtration filters by having the dirty air pass through a disposable bag. The bag works much like a filter, removing the dust and dirt particles as the air passes though. Once the bag is full it can be emptied, or in most case replaced. \r\n Wet/Dry dirty air enters the tank, its speed decreases and dirt is falling down. \r\n Cyclonic systems separate the dust particles from the air flow by spinning the air within a chamber. The spinning causes centrifugal force to act upon the dust particles, separating it from the inner part of the chamber. Some cleaners use multiple chambers and most cleaners add filters to increase the total system filtration efficiency. \r\n Wet/Dry are almost exclusively cylinder in design and will work dry like a traditional vacuum but with the additional option of cleaning with fluid like water with carpet shampoo.\r\n

Convenience
Edge Cleaning is the special ability to clean carpets up to the very edge of the wall. Heated Cleaning is for steam types only that can heat up the water before it is sprayed. Cord rewind is when the power cord is kept on spring reel, inside the vacuum and recoils automatically once triggered. Blowing vacuums have the ability to blow out air as well as suck in. Dirt indicator indicates (via sensors) the places to clean or if more cleaning is need for any area the device comes into contact with. Lift Off is the ability of a upright vacuum to be removed from standing base to provide more reach. Built in Water Pump can be quite helpful in case of a small flood. Touch Control Handle devices will have some controls on the vacuum handle (on/off/speed etc).

| Pros |
Very attractive, affordable, gets the job done. |
| Cons |
Suction could be a little stronger. |
| Bottom Line |
If you need a handheld vacuum, the KURV is a great choice. It's not powerful like a plugged in model might be, but it definitely gets the job done. |
