    Bosch or Electrolux or ??? cordless vacuum stick

    I need more convenient vacuum for cleaning up pet hair on tile, and the coorded 2400w I have works great, excellent suction, but is a bit tedious to lug around, and plug in everywhere...

    I'm thinking about a cordless - like the Bosch or Electrolux "stick" you find in Broadway et. al.

    The suction out of the "pop out hand" vac seems good, but the base of the bigger stick has a rotating brush, and suction seems like it's not as strong as I'm going to want it.

    Primary use - a quick run through the house (all tile, no carpet) each day to pick up random cat litter / hair. If the rotating brush just brushes the litter around, it's obviously no good for me..

    Also, is there a real big difference between 18v and 14.4v systems - and is it power and/or suction that is boosted?

    Anybody have experience with these? Other brands?

    Had the electrolux back home, wasn't powerful enough to vacuum up hair on carpeting. On the floor it's ok but go for more power.
