Comment:
Well, I live in a small apartment with mostly bare floor and area rugs. I purchased this because I had been wanting a Dyson and according to the box, this tested better than a Dyson. Getting it home, I begin to put it together. I was a little shocked at how cheap and flimsy the parts of the vacuum are. I have never seen a hose connecter made out of cheap clear plastic before. The ones I had in the past were a thick plastic that twisted on. I dont expect that part to last very long, because they are just thin little plastic prongs that snap on. The power pedal is also very cheap and thin. The vacuum itself is heavy but it pushes easily and the suction is amazing. For me, the worst part about it is the noise! I have never seen a vacuum this loud before. I actually thought something was wrong with the motor or that a feature was on that shouldn't be. However nothing you do changes it. Living in an apartment, I will only be able to use this during the day as not to disturb my neighbors. It also terrifies my chihuahua with the noise.

Comment:
this vacuum is easy to push. I don't use it on my wood floors only around the baseboards. It works great on carpets and stairs - super suction! Not as good as my eureka smart vac but it is lighter.

Took it back one day later. Sounded like the motor was going to blow up. on/off switch very cheep. Heavy to say the least. Not what I was hoping it would be considering the Better than a Dyson.
