stick vacuum

Upright portable suction

A stick vacuum is a lightweight, cordless vacuum cleaner with a slim vertical design—essentially a motorized cleaning head attached to a long handle with a small dust canister.

Unlike bulky upright vacuums, stick vacuums are easy to maneuver and store, making them popular for quick cleanups: I grabbed the stick vacuum to get the crumbs under the table.
