Upright vacuum cleaners are a good option for cleaning carpeted and solid floors. The cleaners are generally not good for other cleaning jobs, such as steps or walls and ceilings that need dust and webs removed. Several models of Dyson upright vacuum cleaners feature a detachable handle that is compatible with different accessories created to handle those hard to reach places. The handle is light and easy to use with the accessories supplied with the machine.
