Prolux 2.0 Commercial Bagless Backpack Vacuum with Deluxe 1 1/2 inch Tool Kit Pro Model

The reality is backpack vacuums are 2 - 3 times quicker than using an upright. Current Backpack vacuums are heavy and bulky. One of the engineers on the Prolux team is a petite woman and she was insistent that this vacuum be designed to be both lightweight and comfortably worn by anyone. This is why it only weighs 9 lbs. and 80% of the weight is carried on your hips. That means that less than 1 lb. is on each shoulder when worn correctly. News Flash! Your shoulders and back should never hurt when your done vacuuming
