does it pick up sand

It is sort of like a dust buster mounted on a stick. I have not tried it with sand but to be safe you might want something with a more powerful motor.

Yes, I think it might do well with sand. My opinion, this particular sweeper is not strong in power. It doesn't stay charged long either. I use it mainly on hardwood flooring and one area rug and it's dead. There are other Bissell sweepers I've purchased that were cheaper in price and worked better. Go figure. :) good luck, hope this helps some.

I have never tried to pick up sand so I really do not know. It is great on pet hair.

yes, I use scoopable kitty litter..does a great job.Probably not a pile of sand..wouldn't be good for it. make sure you keep the tube between the rollers and the lift-off part clean..it can collect hair and fur.

Yes it does, you have to put sand in both Pockets of the bag, This keeps the sand Separate when striking Top or Bottom.

It picks up a little bit of everything. It will pick up pine needles and grass that has been cut. You can adjust height as wel.

I used it to remove sand from my spa. The fine mesh bag did accomplish that. Bag fills quickly.

You're not going to find a bag that will hold sand. This will pick up small insects and pebbles though.

My experience has been that it only picks up & holds small amounts of dirt. I have the same problem with it leaving dirt to resettle after running it. It works great for larger debris, but not so great for dirt which is what I was hoping for too.

I would think so, once the suction starts, it can even suck up small rocks. But, if you just let the water/sand mixture drain into a bucket, you could just rinse it off and put it back in your tank.

This cleaner was inexpensive .... which means cheap. I don't know about packed sand floors but my main issue is it not covering the whole pool! The bags will be full so it does pick up fine debris but I can't recommend this cleaner.

If you never take it outside, maybe. If you use it outside, it can pick up dirt, sand, etc and really make a mess of your floors.

I must say I am impressed by this little gem - it picks up sand with ease - not sure how the sand might react with the filter - but so far so good.

It can pick up whatever a swiffer cloth picks up. Dirt and sand? Maybe a little. I find it's great for dust and pet hair...

I have had good luck with this in sand, it's not loose sand but it pulls very easily in my soil.

Never used it on sand, but worked great for cat litter and hair. Works very well for kitchen crumbs and I even use it in the family room on low carpet. Doesn't spread anything around. Litter stays in the collector unti you empty it.

Yes. It picks up anything that is on the surface especially small bugs. I have one in FL and one in GA. It definitely works!

It picks up blacktop stones with no problem. Don't see why I won't pick up cigarette ashes. It has a very good suction to it.

It depends. I use it to pick up nails, bolts, ect. It would pick up stuff out of the ground if the objects are not to deep, the ground is soft, ect.

I found it picked up sand anything smaller just went right through the fine mesh bag.
