Hi Kerry, not sure how long the wand extends to...we ended up taking it back to Lowe's to get our money back.

Doesn't matter how long the wand is because this vacuum "sucks" - oh, no it doesn't. It wouldn't even pick up a tiny piece of dry dog food. Electrolux should be ashamed to have their name on this.

the wand it not too long, you still have to bend over. The carpet Brush is not that powerful, the brush rotates because of the suction of the vacuum, not motor on the brush. this vacuum is better for wood or tile floors.

No and the wand is not adjustable. So you have to buy an adjustable from a vacuum store to fit.

Sue,Tex it is easy to use and very efficient, it also has a floor attachment so the wands are long enough, also standard size so the wands from most other brands can be attached to add even more length.Hope this is helpful.Annette

The part that holds the hair is 9"x2" on ours. The bristles are 10"x2 ¼" at this point. We always store all of our brooms with the bristles UP and the handle down in order to keep them from bending out of shape. Hope this helps.

The vacuum is self adjusting. It easily handles going from a smooth surface to carpet. In my house there is up to 1/2 inch difference. The only thing you need to do is push the brush button once on carpet.

The assembled unit is 9 feet long. There are 3 sections to the extended pole. Please note, this does not come with any nozzles. If your existing wand has a snap-in nozzle, you can use it.

I had the same dilemma until I realized I had it wrong. It does not go onto the end. It is not an extension. You actually replace your stock wand with this and then connect your stuff.

It appeared to about one inch. I did not like it as my hair got stuck in the brush and was pulled my hair. I was very disappointed in the brush, so I returned it. Hope this helps. Regards, Beverly

I agree Angela, I find the hose is supposed to stretch but not as long and easily that I would like. I confess to using a small portable Oreck for long reaches and an extension pole with a dust rag attached for high ceilings. I really do like the way the Hoover picks up hair in the carpet, too bad I can't get the dog who sheds to do the vacuuming:)

The wand is 24". The wand plus hose extends about 6 1/2 feet from the top of the unit. It will reach as far as your arm plus the 24" length of the wand

At full extension, the handle is 48 inches long, and when I hold it at the angle needed to actually vacuum, it still reaches about 33 inches off the floor. I'm 5'8" and for me, the handle is comfy as low as 27 or 28 inches. It also can telescope down to a lower height.

Not quite sure of the exact length (maybe 7 feet?), but the wand is quite long and has a downward curve toward the floor (I.e., it's not a straight wand as on consumer vacuums). The length is not adjustable. Tall people will have absolutely no issues with the wand length. For shorter people, it may feel a little awkward, but the performance of the vacuum, which is amazing, makes up for it. ON EDIT: The wand is actually about 5 or so feet in vertical height and probably around 6 feet or so in total length, including the curve.

The hose is about 12" in length. There is a hard plastic extension that is about 36". I am able to vacuum rugs while standing; I am 6 ft. tall. Under beds, etc is possible but not from a standing position. Wherever you are using this unit you have to hold with one hand or sling it over a shoulder (shoulder strap is included). It easily tips over. In many applications you would want to hold the object (a pillow for example) and vacuum with the other. In order to use both hands for the task, you must carry vacuum over shoulder; not a convenient or comfortable arrangement. The older model handheld vac was a floor stable unit with wheels: a better design. The hose is about 12" in length. There is a hard plastic extension that is about 36".

The wand is at my grandson's house, but I believe it was around 11inches long. Hope this helps!

I measured the broom and it is 20 inches collapsed and 50 inches fully extended. The bristles fold up along side the handle.

I don't have a carpet brush, but will share what I feel the difference is. A brush would have many rows of soft bristles, very close together. This carpet rake has only two rows of flexible bristles, about 18 inches long, 1/2 inch between the rows. Perfect for collecting pet hair (or human hair) as the rake is used on carpet or rugs, easily remove the hair by gently pulling down and toss in trash bag. I have two long haired dog and need to remove the hair several times while doing one room. So easy compared to my hair jammed vacuum rollers that required scissors or sharp knife. I will never be without a carpet rake as long as pets live in my house. Denise, I hope this has been helpful.

After measuring the wand it came out to 6.25in. I asked my husband to double check the measurement to be sure. I hope that helps.
