About a year ago I posted about hardwood and tile floors.

Now I also have area rugs. I want something light and I do not want to spend over $200.00 so that lets out the Dyson and other products of the same kind. I have used the swifter with the charger in the past and actually like it. But it dies after two rooms.(hardwood only) but now I have the area rugs(had central vac in other house) Someone before posted about the durabrand cyclonic canister vac from walmart. It is soooo inexpensive but if it really works I am all for it. Any suggestions. I am worried about wheels on the hardwood. so I guess I am thinking electric broom type or canister. What does everyone use that is not Dyson oriented. Thanks.
