Haven't gotten a chance to use too much but when I did I was amazed at what was left in the canister! The rug didn't even look like it need vacuumed. Am enjoying the attachment with the green light, except I was appalled at what particles were everywhere-not seen with the naked eye!
I have had many cordless vacuums over the years, and this is by far the best one. It has the corded vacuum power but its cordless. The green light technology is an eye opener when using! This product is the best!
I've had a Dyson (several) over the past 18 years. This one is as good as the others. Very convenient for easy use around the whole house within 20 min. I can pick up and go without cords or plugging in at multiple outlets. Suction is so good I cannot use it on my smaller front door rug.
So glad I finally bought the cordless stick as I don't dread vacuuming so much. The dust light is amazing: 1. It is hard to believe how much dust and hair actually accumulate that you don't see without the light 2. The vacuum gets everything and the house feels cleaner than any other vacuum I have used and that includes a central vacuum system. Hand held section is great for stairs, and it is easy to empty the bin without feeling like you walked thru a dust cloud.
I bought this item after I saw it on sale for a very good price. I was looking for something cordless and decided to go with this brand. It works well and No problems so far. Battery of fine for my needs and it's not heavy.
