Can this vacuum be used on carpeted stairs?

Yes. That is why I bought it. It is small and very portable - sling the strap over your shoulders and go right up the stairs - the power cord is quite long and this vacuum is more powerful than the extension on my upright.
586077
Yes, no problem. This is one of the best uses aa the vacuum is light to carry and the cord is long enough as well.
586078
yes-just remove the long attachment and use the brush directly on steps-works great picking up pet hair etc
586079
yes but I'd suggest ordering a separate hard plastic upholstery nozzle from Hoover for $5 or $6 that could fit on the wand for carpeted stairs because the one that comes with the unit has bristles on it, unless you have another one already that might just happen to fit

I have not used it on stairs, mine are too narrow. If there is any kind of breeze you end up covered in snow. Not good.

The model that I purchased came with attachments for upholstery cleaning and/or cleaning carpeted stairs. The attachment works pretty well. I am very happy with the carpet cleaning function of my machine.

Yes, this would work well on stairs. My regular vacuum attachments (Hoover) don't work because those attachments are female to fit to a male fitting and the Makita attachments are male to fit to a female fitting.

I don't have carpeted stairs, but I do use it on the carpets in my cars and it works great!

No, 'fraid not. This vac is primarily for stairs. Only attachment is a wand. I feel your pain with the computer mess. I have a little DeWalt rechargeable/corded vac. If it sucked like a good vac, it'd be close to ideal.

This Hoover vacuum does a super job picking up dog hair in a "flash," it's low on noise, easy to clean and lightweight. I have not tried stairs. My guess is the vacuum will do just as good a job. Give it a try.

i havent used it on stairs, i dont have any, i use it on couches and chairs and it works very well.. its basically a miniature version of the main spinning brush.

Yes, it will but it does best on bare floors and very low pile carpets. It is not a substitute for a vacuum!

No, it won't make it. I have 13 stairs (with fairly high risers), and I carry the vacuum either up or down to the halfway level to do the stairway.

This vacuum performed poorly on my carpet, which isn't thick. It's quite flimsy, and has poor suction. It also emitted a strong smoky smell.It may be better suited on bare floors, but it's not suited for carpeting. Thank you for asking.

I use it for my stairs, not for pets. It takes a little practice to learn to use actually. Put to much pressure on it and it does stick. It's not powered by a motor, only suction.

I am not sure if you can use it on carpet. Mine has been thrown out on the trash because it was so hard to use. It took much more effort than the Shark that I had before.

May be! I have not tried it on carpet. You can turn off the brush, but the suction is too strong and is not adjustable.

This brush set for the Electrolux is not very wide, so it's best for upholstered chairs and sofas. It will do OK on carpeted stairs, but it is really to small for regular carpeted floors.

Not that I can see. I have two Bissell vacuum cleaners but have only used them on carpet. I like this one as it is lighter than the heavy duty one.
