Vacuum shopping? Look no further! This vacuum has many of the features that all the fancy ones have for much less! It is quiet...my baby doesn't get scared from the sweeper anymore! It is VERY easy to push. My last vacuum ("swivel guide" Dirt Devil) was a serious workout and I hated it in everyway. This vacuum really picks up and can handle the job. We just had new carpet installed and it shedded constantly. I think we used this vacuum twice on it and VOILA...no more shedding :) By the way, it is really cool seeing everything that it picks up! The tools are easy and convenient. Last but not least, this vacuum is VERY light. I give this vacuum 5 stars! The only thing that could be improved is the cup could be bigger, but that in no way interferes with the vacuum's performance. Go out and get it, you won't be sorry!

I own a 85lb German Shepherd that does a lot of shedding. I bought this vacuum based on some reviews written about it and can only reaffirm the positive comments on it. I opened the box and tried it right away and after 1 min I had to empty all the dog hair it had picked up. It works great and would recommend it to any pet owner that has problems with pet hair.

The price tag you're looking at is for the features and everyone seems to be giving this vacuum a high rating on it's power performance ONLY. You can find a vacuum with better features and equal power for cheaper.

PROS: 1) Good suction 2) Easy to empty 3) Three filters 4) Hasn't clogged and I've sucked up a bag of flour and have brand new carpet.

CONS: 1) IT'S HEAVY 2) It's very bulky 3) The hose is way too SHORT which really surprised me. I tried to pull it out to suck something up and it barely reached pass the vacuum. As heavy as the vacuum is you'd think they'd make the hose longer so you could reach the messes. Not to mention that it only comes with one extension (plus a brush and a crevice tool) 4) The duster is VERY IMPRACTICAL. It's what made me try this model and I never use it now. The first time I used it I knew I would never use it again. When you put the duster back into the holder it pushes the bristles back and throws the dust everywhere. It doesn't get an electrostatic charge (at least mine never did) so dust really doesn't stick to it very well. It just moves the dust around. You're better off with a good old fashion feather duster.

So to sum it all up, it's heavy and awkward to use, but it has excellent sucking power. Don't buy this for the features, you can find a vacuum with equal power for the same price (or lower) that has better features.

I just put this together and vacummed up a storm. I have two cats and can't believe how much cat hair this thing sucked up! The hose is already attached which is great with a toddler! It's light and pretty quite too. It's easy to empty and easy to use as well. I am very pleased with this vacuum and would recommend this it to anyone. For the price it does an awesome job. It made two year old military carpet look good again!

I have this vacuum in the Lite version {4388BT}. It picks up really well and I haven't had any problems. I've owned many brands of vacuums over the years and I compared them for many months before buying this one at [local store]. It could use a longer cord and hose. But, you can buy attachments, etc., if you look on-line. It may not be for heavy duty cleaning. For the [money] it cost it was a good value but is being discontinued.
