If you haven't learned by 40 that all cordless vaccuums are terrible, then you're beyond help.

An important thing us people at 40 have to keep in mind is tech advances and gets better all the time. The cordless vac I have now works great for being portable and usable in our townhouse, which has no carpet.

Would a good corded vacuum be better? Depends on the terms. It'll be better max performance, bit I don't have to lug a heavier vacuum upstairs to clean stuff in my room, and what I have works.

As a photography hobbyist, it's like saying why take a picture with a phone camera, m43, or apsc when you could use full frame or medium format? The cameras are objectively better quality pictures, but they are more expensive and larger, especially when it comes to lenses. Sometimes convenience is "better."
