Stick hoover with crevice tool

Can anyone point me to a stick/upright hoover (preferably cordless and /or preferably bagged) that I can use the crevice tool for edges and corners without having to bend down.
Like you would be able to do with a regular Henry type vacuum cleaner.

I have an excellent Gtech cordless upright vacuum but the crevice tool only connects to the battery/motor part converting it into like a Dirt Devil type device. Which I have to get down on all fours to use.

I use the the Gtech almost daily but I occasionally want to get in to corners and am looking for a second vacuum that will allow me to do that.

My friend has the bagged Gtech "stick" cleaner, and I have seen her using it with the crevice tool on the end of the extension pole (stick). She just took the main head off and put the crevice tool in instead. Are you quite sure you cannot do that with yours? My friend is too poorly to bend and use the cleaner as a hand-held cleaner for the edges in the way you are saying you use yours, which is why she bought one that could be used from waist height.

This said, when I help her with the cleaning, I take my Hetty, as her long hose gets into all the places that need cleaning, and the suction power is off the scale. I've used her Gtech (she has a Shark cordless upright too), and it seems OK for a going-over, but I wouldn't want to rely on it for "proper" cleaning.
