The new place we're in has two sets of stairs that the cats LOVE to play on - the result being very furry stairs. Do those of you with stairs (and carpeting) just drag the vacuum up and down the stairs and use the attachment, or do you use a seperate hand held machine?
I've done both. My current "big" vacuum is a very light Eureka Optima - can lift it with one finger.
And, vw, I'm thinking your best bet is a Nike Oregon, or one of the Timex Expedition watches. I'm sorry, after a while, they all start repeating, and I haven't seen anything new in a quite a few pages/searches.

We have two vacuums that are fairly light, but I'm thinking a handheld for the stairs would be simpler. Easier that convincing DF's two black cats to shed somewhere other than the stairs, that's for sure. Hmm.
I love my Eureka Electrolux Ergorapido: [link] It's a handhold and does my stairs like a dream...as well as my hard-wood floors. I've been SO thankful for it. Target has the best price I've found. I think I even got it on sale for $79.99.
Ergorapido
That sounds like a last name. "Hello. I am Hector Ergorapido. May I clean your floors?"
I just grabbed a slice of pizza and a salad from the cafe downstairs. In the elevator, one of the professors says to me, "Jeez, how many people are you going to feed with that!"
I gave him a moment of silence, to see if he would apologize, then I laughed and with a wide grin told him not to expect an answer next time he emailed me with a question.
Dear Professors: I humor you in lots of ways, but if you're going to be rude don't expect me to stand there and take it.

Huh? From one slice of pizza and a salad?
"Hello, I am Ergorapido Montoya and you killed my father."
"Hello, I am Ergorapido Montoya and you killed my father."
"Prepare for me to suck up your dirt!"
Sparky, that's just...I have no words. How rude!
Maybe he looked at Sparky - who is small and slim - and figured she lives on six lettuce leaves and sparkling water?
eta: Also, talk about poor social skills!
