does it have adjustable suction so I can clean some throw rugs also?

Sue, it has two adjustments -- one for carpeting, and the other for hard floors. I'm not sure if it would work on throw rugs; we don't have any here (handicap household). You might want to check with Corinne Zeimet [CZeimet@mysoniclean.com] and ask your question there. Sorry I can't help further. I love this vacuum; it's perfect for my needs. Perhaps Corinne or someone at Soniclean can make a suggestion for you if this is not the best model for you. Hope that helps. Pat

It has two modes. Bare floor and carpet. You have to be careful when doing throw rugs. But it does automatically shut off if it sucks up something it shouldnt

thank you, do you still like you vaccum? I just ordered it and am nervous about it a bit :-)

Greetings, Sue! The Soniclean vacuum cleaner does not provide a variable suction control. The only control adjusts the unit for either bare floors or carpets and rugs. To clean a throw rug, I think you'd have to keep one foot on it to prevent its sliding. With good wishes, Skipp.

I use small canister for that purpose. Soniclean is too powerful for this kind of stuff.

Yes it does, but I didn't really notice that feature. I truly love how great the vacuum works. The suction is great. It picks up dirt I didn't even see.

This vacuum doesn't have any settings for like short medium or high carpet. One setting does all. I have shaggy carpet at my apartment and it seems to go a great job. I don't hear loss suction or the brush being worked to hard because of the length of carpet.

Yes, it does. If I have something stubborn, it's very easy to convert to hand vac and get even closer to the baseboard.

No it does not. I, luckily, had a cheap broom with a screw on brush which I took off and used with the brush in the kit. And, I was not impressed with the cleaning that this product did on my wool rug.

Yes it does. It also has two settings one for bare floors and one for carpet. Both settings are great.

Ooh yes it sure does has a filter that you clean out. I would recommend the vacuum for hard rugs and hard floors more than full carpets.

Yes it does. My family has dust allergies and I think this vacuum does a great job.

Nope, but it does have good suction. I will be honest I have not used mine in about 3 months.

Yes, but it dosent work very well. It dosent pick up anything bigger then a dime. And if you have carpet that has any length at all it dosent even do that.

I bought it specifically for hardwood floors and flat weave sisal rugs. It works great and has excellent suction. It has a carpet attachment brush but it doesn't appear substantial enough to do a really deep cleaning on high pile.

It has a knob that controls the air and if closed it won't work. It is much to lightweight to do a good job on carpets. I had to go out and buy a kenmore for serious cleaning. It's a toy. A cute light weight glorified electric broom that easily clogs and loses suction.

No, it doesn't. I mainly use it on hard floors and it picks up everything. I also use it on low knap carpets just around areas that I can't vacuum very well with my regular vacuum. I really has a lot of suction for such a little vac. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I have a cat and it picks up all her fine hair and the litter she leaves around her box.

It was purchased as a gift. If you are talking about throw rugs I don't know but my daughter said the lift-off is awesome for spot cleaning carpets.

Yes! Rather well, too. It gets all the cat litter out of my bathroom rugs and the carpet in the hallway outside the door. The suction surprised me, really. I actually have to push the vacuum away from me while sometimes stepping on the rugs to vacuum them.
