Does it pick up sand well?

Bought this carpet sweeper to pick up at church...disappointed because instead of going forward and then backward when you first start to use it, you have to go in front of the dirt and then back and then forward to pick up the dirt several times that way and sometimes that doesn't even work.

I found it picked up sand anything smaller just went right through the fine mesh bag.

It picks up a lot of dust but only minimally disperses it into the air. I was amazed of the dirt it picked up after sweeping a spot that I thought was clean.

Yes it picks up hair and fine dust,I tried cheaper versions first and wishI saved my money and bought this One first. If you need it for fine dust hair( we have dark hardwood floors) it reallyDoes a great job! And the cordless is great to go where you want however the head is small so it doesn't cover a large area. It may take longer to vacuum the same area

There are two handles/lifts on the truck. One lifts the entire scoop up and the second lever controls the dump feature of the scoop. So yes it can scoop up a load of sand in the sandbox and then lift and dump into a dump truck. My little granddaughters love their Tonka trucks.

I find it is pretty good at picking up small items- if yoou need to get close the hand held is better and can pick up more items as the sweeper is limited in the size that can go through. It is a powerful little handy vac!

With my experience it will suck up the dirt.The suction seems to be powerful but it also depends on the size of your pump. I have a larger pump so it has powerful suction. If there are any larger pieces like very small rocks it might not get that (it might just push them out of the way) but as long as it is sand or dusty type dirt it should eventually get it all.

Yes! But you need the cloth cover over the net. Well worth investing a couple extra bucks to clear the sand. Good luck.

It can pick up whatever a swiffer cloth picks up. Dirt and sand? Maybe a little. I find it's great for dust and pet hair...

It will haul dirt too but it doesn't scoop it up well. I have to rake things up in a pile in order for my son to scoop it up.

It does vacuum the bottom of the pool well. Doesn't pick like leaves well. Not really go a lot to the sides. Still a good vacuum for our purpose.

I bought the pond vac to remove dead "sludge" from the bottom of my water garden ponds. It will certainly pick up sand. I must admit though,that the vacuum power requires constant "tickling" to maintain the vacuum power (the placement of the vacuum has to be ideally below the pond level being vacuumed.

Yes. It "lifts" / pulls strongly, and it has a beater bar. It does a good job.

Yes. The vacuum is strong, and the "beater" seems to do a good job lifting dirt.

It does a very good job picking up pet hair on floors and rugs in upright mode. The power hand tool does a good job on upholstery, but it takes some practice and more than one pass with my cat's hair. Make sure to clean the dirt cup and the cyclonic filter regularly though.

It will not pick up hair, but will pick up the dust once the fluid from the cleaner mixes with it. It works pretty good for small spot cleaning. I'm happy with mine.

It doesn't really "pick up" more than dust, but will push large chunks into a pile. It's great for quickly sweeping large spaces. I wouldn't necessarily call it a detail/nook and cranny cleaning tool though.
