Canister Vacuum Cleaners provide you with mobility, above-the-floor cleaning, and stair/upholstery cleaning. With a canister vacuum, you can clean anything from carpets to bare floors to even your automobiles. For your heavier jobs such as deep carpet cleaning, let the motorized powerhead of a powerhead canister get the job done. For your lighter jobs (bare floors or automobile interior), let your bare floor nozzle and various tools of a straight suction canister do the job on your precious and delicate fixtures.
