I simply don’t like this machine. I find it awkward. The suction poor with the wand and it doesn’t help that it doesn’t easily come apart from the base as show to reach higher places or cary about. The attachment s continually fall off. Yes I was trying vacuum my ceiling fan blades with the entire vacuum with the crevice attachment on short hose. Honestly I hate this vacuum and I use it daily. We live on a dirt road and have 3 big dogs, 3 cats and tile floors. The sand and grit with animal hair can be a hazard it ignored for to long. I would be better served with a Dustbuster on a stick $39 which is a shame since it seems to be quality made item just to cumbersome for anything more than sucking up crumbs from the kitchen floor.
