Changed vacuuming forever

I've had another well-known vacuum brand since 2007; it was refurbished when I bought it but has served me well. However, it's huge, takes up a lot of space, and the model is nearly 18 years old!
Living with a house rabbit also means frequent vacuuming due to fluff, straw and hay...it's not his fault. A hand-held vacuum has made sense for a long time, and after finally making the commitment, I wouldn't go back.
The AEG 8000 is so easy to pull out from the cupboard for a quick tidy-up, which means you end up vacuuming more often because it's not a pain to get out. So instead of once a week, it's become daily, or every other day!
Unboxing was easy, and it went together with no problem; using it for the first time on a small patch of carpet that – to the eye – looked spotless, wow. The amount it picked up was quite amazing. Even if your carpet looks clean, the AEG 8000 somehow sucks stuff up from the depths below.
You can only charge it by fixing it onto the wall mount, which may not work for everyone and means the vacuum sticks out a little from the wall. But in a cupboard with power, it's okay. It would be nice to have the option like a cordless drill where you could just charge the battery pack on its own.
Also, the nozzles are rectangular, so one thing I found a faff was vacuum seal bags. It works, but it's not ideal as you feel like you're forcing the nozzle onto something that just won't fit.
It would also be nice if it came with a few more accessories. Unfortunately, in standard form, it's only ideal for carpets; you have to buy a car kit to get in all the nooks and crannies in a vehicle, something most uprights just come with as standard.
For a two-bed house, this is all the vacuum you could ever need; it makes me wonder why I kept my massive old upright for so long. The AEG 8000 will definitely replace it.
