Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Wow! What a fantastic value. I did a fair amount of research, before purchase, but pulled the trigger on this vacuum despite decent reviews of lower price range units. My main reasons where that some had compared it favorably to far more expensive dysons which I have used, and the motor power rating is 350 Watts, which is good power. When the vacuum arrived my husband and I where excited to check it out. Both of us where immediately impressed with the build quality of every part. Having used a very expensive Dyson cordless vacuum that one of my friends owns, and comparing the two, I would have to say that this is a far superior build quality and engineered unit. But how does it work? We’ll we couldn’t wait to try. It came with a battery that was partly charged so we immediately put it to the test in the family room which has a Cecil fiber rug and a wood floors. We vacuum this area every day with a Xiaomi roborock 2 automated vacuum (also highly recommended), so I didn’t expect much, but alas 3 minutes or so of vacuuming had filled up about 1/4 of the clear dust bin with dust and cat hair... the power roller that it comes with seams to work great on the combo of flooring. Emptying the bin was a breeze, and all of the filters are washable, so we rinsed them all and plugged it in to try the next day. Also there note the filters are replaceable and they have impeccably well engineered stainless steel screens. The next day, I wanted to test it on our rev, as we have a small but aging cordless eureka vacuum that doesn’t hold a charge anymore (not a lithium ion battery). I put the included small power brush on and headed out. Cleaning the RV with it got addictive, I found myself doing not only the floors but also all the seats, 5 minutes later I again had a half full bucket of dust, hair, dirt, etc.... I didn’t even think I had left it that dirty. So great review so far, now for the honesty and practical feedback. It comes with a base that holds all the accessories in some sort of pyramid fashion. Junk it, it shouldn’t have ever been made, but they also send a nice white bag that holds the accessories just as well. Between the bag and the main vacumn put together, you can store the two in half the space of trying to use their organizer contraption... but kudos for trying. Secondly I though I was getting two batteries with the deal, but only received one, on review I believe that is because the orange unit I believe does ship with two As well as an additional carpet brush, but amazon has them in the same listings just as different colors the blue being $100 less... I should have known something was up their. That said I really think it would be nice to have two batteries, because if you do use it in high, which has great suction, the battery is only stated to last 7 minutes, so your not going to get much accomplished, on regular mode it is supposed to last 25 minutes. For me this works as most of the area I will be vacuuming is hardwood, so I will only use max on some rugs, but still an extra battery would be great. Better yet they should replace their organizer with a fast charge dock and add th extra battery. Either way at we love it so far, so much that we ordered another one for camp, and one for my husbands office. Hope this helps.
