Comment:
I need a reliable vacuum that can take abuse. This one is great so far. The suction is outstanding and I love it's light weight. I've been used to using larger commercial uprights so these features are a big improvement. <br /><br />I really enjoy the adjustable suction, brush, and handle. Easy to release and wind up the electical chord. <br /><br />What I like less is that it's harder to do stairs when you don't want to use the stairs attachment. But the stairs attachment does work well - on carpeted stairs (sold separately). To use it as a cannister you must carry it - no wheels when it's detached from the motor. And if you use the hose rather than the parquet attachment (which does work quite well - maybe less so on large tile with thick grooves) the vacuum is prone to tipping because of the short hose attached at the top. The parquet tool is very manouverable, but can't always get under low furniture or tight areas which is why I sometimes prefer the hose. <br />The adjustable brush is great, but the vacuum will shut down on thick pile carpets to prevent damage. You either reduce the suction or turn off the brush.<br /><br />I did recently recommend it to a friend!
How long have you owned it:

Comment:
I bought this to clean Cathedral Ceilings, Ledges and Ceiling Fans. I also wanted one vacuum to do all jobs. This one is great to use as an upright and as a canister. Grooms carpet very well and the Premium Parquet brush is easy to install and works great on my hardwood and tile floors. This is an excellent vacuum, you won't be sorry.
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
We are tough on vacuums in our household. We have burned up many a belt on others picking up socks or carpet fringe. After 3 years we are still on the original belt. It performs well and is compact, fairly light, and very well built. We have worn out an Oreck in short order and broken top rated performers.<br /><br />This unit has been trouble free and is worth the money.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
