What is good about it:
~Great suction--picked up much better than my old vacuum
~Variable height control adjusts well to different carpets
~Quiet
~Very easy to assemble and to switch attachments
~I like the on/off switch on the handle
~Lightweight--easy to carry & use
~Headlight
~Retractable LONG cord
~(FYI: hose is 6'--some sites claim it is 8')
~Body seems sturdy
~Bags easy to change
What I don't like about it:
~The metal tubes that connect the head to the hose are not adjustable, so one height fits all. I am 5'8" so a bit longer would be nice. But it's not terribly short--I just wish it adjusted.
~The head has rubber around it and the body has rubber in the front only--I wish the body had a rubber bumper all the way around.
~The plastic of the head & handle does seem a bit flimsy--but it may just be that it is a lighter weight plastic that what I am used to so that it feels flimsy but it actually is sturdy. Certainly the lighter weight is nice when vacuuming.
~The carpet height adjuster is a plastic lever you operate with your foot on the head. I fear it may break off it not used carefully.
~The brush attachment is quite small with short bristles. Again, not terrible, but a bit larger with longer bristles would have been better. The good news is the attachment from my old vac fit this one, so I'm going to keep them.
