Oreck Restaurateur® Floor Sweeper 12.5

Big coverage area
I purchased both this and the Fuller brand one for Sunday School classrooms, just so I could get a sense of both. Personally, I think all of these are overpriced when you look at what you can get small motorized ones for these days. But if you have to have one of these, this is the one to have. Compared to the Fuller, you will see no difference in pick-up. But you will see that it is much wider - a 11 1/2" pick-up area (rubber fin brushes) vs. a 7" pick-up area in the Fuller. The Fuller also doesn't have brushes but has these rubber fin things. Neither are great if you want to get deep into the carpet. They are best used on low-pile office or classroom carpet - or what you'd find in a restaurant. It is $5 more than the Fuller (10% more) but covers 40% more space. So this is the preferred product between those two.

This sweeper works better than the smaller version, is quiet and efficient in picking up most litter on carpets, but doesn't work as well on slick surfaces such as hardwood floors.

This floor sweeper is marvelous. I' m the director of an adult foster care for 17 residents and after meals it has are dining room spotless. The sweeper takes care of all fast pickups and works great on carpet and hard flooring. Oreck Restaurateur
