Frequently asked
The Steerable line uses a pivoting nozzle so the vacuum body turns on its own axis. It makes maneuvering around furniture much easier than a fixed-base upright.
The pet-specific models with the rubber brush bar handle pet hair well. The standard models work okay but tangle on long hair faster than the WindTunnel Pet variant.
