The cordless stick vac formfactor

[Vacuum Facts]

Doesn't matter what label you give it, the type of product being discussed is outlined above and specifically what is being cloned by all manufacturers. There's no point redefining it more broadly to attempt to suggest the concept came earlier. All other products I've seen proposed as progenitors are NOT the same—apples to oranges. The lack of a single example from you and a careful assessment of exactly how those examples precisely match the criteria outlined above—again, that all Dyson clones are cloning, distinct from other criteria they are not—has left me wholly unconvinced.

Eh, I'd prefer a robot vac for quick cleaning.

Many stick vac clone dupes are only suited for quick cleans from the data available. People who buy the highest performing modern stick vacs that use the original patented technology don't buy them for quick cleaning and the data shows they outperform many mains machines in their default auto mode.

If I wrong apologies to all, however growing up my grandmother had a black and decker battery operated vacuum cleaner for small cleans, not much suction as expected, tiny little cloth bag , bright orange plastic with a wand and all appropriate tools included!!

Yep, those were the black and decker 'Dustbuster' models. We had one of these too that had an optional powered agitator section that could clip on the front. There were two brass 'tracks' where the leads for the agitator would slide into so it would get power from the main body. Today's Bissell handheld models have a similar design for their agitator attachment.
