Good enough I guess, but confusing instructions When I received this kit of six tools and four different adapters, it came in a clear plastic bag and had absolutely no documentation on which adapters would work with my vacuum, a Shark Performance Lift-Away Upright (Model UV850). I primarily wanted this as the vacuum I have is very cumbersome to use when cleaning the stairs and the tools they included did not have a wide floor brush.The full kit includes:* A wide hard floor brush -- excellent for stairs or floors in general* A smaller circular brush which is good for getting into corners and crevices of walls without damaging them* An oval brush that they call a "utility nozzle brush" which I haven't yet found a good use for, that the others don't already do* An upholstery tool -- good for couches, chairs, and small rugs* A crevice tool for getting into corners and walls and narrow areas* And finally the detailing brush which can be used for cleaning small crevices like keyboards or detailing the car. However, due to an issue with the adapters, I can't easily use this tool for it's intended purpose. Even when I did attach it, there was way too much suction and it was incredibly loud even when used on my vacuums lowest setting.So after first attempting and failing to using the tools directly with my vacuum, I resorted to trial and error until I found that one of the tapered adapters fit the end of the vacuum wand quite well. However, none of the adapters would fit well onto the handle end, so I'm stuck with using these attachments only when the wand is attached. I then referenced the Amazon page which didn't clarify things at all -- I definitely don't want to be sitting here cutting plastic like the pictures recommend -- especially if the piece I'd need to cut is the one that already works on the wand. So I'll have to deal with only being able to use the tools with the wand attached, which makes the detailer all but useless in my use case. As for the other adapters, I ended up tossing them back into their plastic zip bag and putting them in the back of the closet if I never end up needing them in the futureOverall these seems adequate for the price but I'd caution interested buyers to really measure your vacuum nozzles, wands, etc. to make sure these will work for your vacuum prior to purchasing.

Great vacuum attachments! The hose adaptors worked to attach these to both my vacuum and my shop vac! My vacuum doesn't have pile settings and I was unable to vacuum my new rug. The widest head works perfectly and now I can keep my new rug clean. These pieces seem like they are well made and will last for a long time.

Excellent selection Apart from the multitude of attachments, the vendor was thoughtful enough to provide a variety of adapters so that the attachments will work with many different types of vacuum machines - and we do require one of them to make the attachments work with our upright vacuum.We replaced some of the attachments that came with our vacuum and which are old and well past their prime (the horse hair ones are actually an improvement), but also scored some new ones. I was hoping that the little one with the brush that spins out (¼” crevice tool) would be skinny enough to fit into the annoyingly narrow channels of our sliding windows, which are always a devil to clean. Alas, the opening is ¼”, but the actual dimensions are larger. That little brush is fantastic for cleaning keyboards as it does not rip the keys out. It is excellent for vacuuming delicate items - see photos of our model sailboat, which has always been difficult to clean - it removed the dust, while keeping all the lines, sails and other fittings intact.The attachments are well-made - no rough, unfinished edges and the bristles (including the horsehair ones) are not going to fall out soon.
