Hand Vac Really Sucks Pet Hair

Hand vac picks up pet hair

The Shark Cordless Hand Vac (aka Pet Perfect Hand Vac) picks up an amazing amount of pet hair and dirt, even when you think none is there!

A combination of a powerful motor and brush head really pulls up an amazing about of pet hair and dirt on most any type of carpet. I’ve used in my cars and on rugs at home.

The brush can be removed for a standard “hand vac” head, or insert a narrow nozzle attachment for hard to reach places.

The biggest and perhaps only drawback to this vac is the battery. The battery tends to get weak very quickly, so the length of time to get maximum power can be limited.

All in all, this vac is worth its weight at getting up dirt.

Carbonite Has Hidden Drawbacks

While I’ve been using Carbonite for automated backups, it does have some hidden flaws that will take you by surprise. I only know this the hard way – I had to restore and some files were missing!

By default, Carbonite does not backup EXE files, video files or any files larger than 4 GB! Now if you are getting into the video thing like me, this could be a major drawback. Also, if you have random files that are simply too large, you are hosed. And if you save EXE files you have purchased and downloaded, you are in trouble.

Luckily, you can still manually select these for backup, but there is no way to make this the new default setting. One other way to catch these items, should you forget, is a small clear/white dot on the corner of each folder indicating that folder contains items not being backed up. Files backed up are indicated with a green dot.
