This one really sucks up the dirt!

Pros: great suction, lots of good tools

Cons: handle fell off when picked up by the handle

We were looking for a new upright vacuum since we have carpets in our new house. We saw the sticker that said this model had better suction than a Dyson, and for $200 less, we decided to give it a try. It also had lots of other nice features, all listed on the box. We took it home and my husband put it together in a couple of minutes. He used it first, and I was amazed at the amount of dirt and cat hair he sucked out of the carpet! Then I took over. I vacuumed the rest of the carpets in the house, and in each room I sucked up all kinds of cat hair, dust and grit. The carpets that we thought were very worn look almost new! The little square brush did a great job on the baseboards, and in the window sills. There is a nifty little rotary brush attachment that was just the thing for tight areas of carpet.
Do be careful to pick the machine up by the handle on the body, if you pick it up by the handle grip it will come apart. ...
