My Vacuum Sucks

So remember the Target gift card?? I used it towards a new vacuum!! Our vacuum died a few months back. We've been using what we call Brian's "rat vac". It is a very old vacuum. It has great suction, but it doesn't have a brush to get things up out of the carpet. I never really felt that the floor was getting very clean with the old vacuum. I decided to go cheap as we are moving and I don't want to risk a new one getting beat up and broken during the trip. We decided on this compact design with full size power. It works great! Not only does it "suck", but it's getting everything that the other vacuum leaves behind! Best of all it only cost $30 after my gift card.
