Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The vacuum is very powerful and that is almost a negative for my home. Almost. Pros: Very affordable, not too short like most cheap vacuums, feels very sturdy, the cord is really long so I can do the whole kitchen, long hallway and part of the two bedrooms without having to unplug, picks up everything with very little effort. Cons: I have two large area rugs (8x11) in the 2 bedrooms, 8 small throw rugs in other areas (such as bathroom, hallway, kitchen, etc) and tile floors throughout the rest of the apartment. The vacuum works great on the large rugs and on the tile floors, but when I run it over small rugs it just sucks the rug up making it impossible to use on them. I have to stand on one corner of the rug and push the vacuum forward, then try and lift it up and go back and push it forward again. Back and forth would make the rug come right up off the floor. If you will be using this for large rugs and floors then this vacuum will be PERFECT for your home. Overall I am satisfied with the vacuum for what I paid. I fixed the small rug issue by saving the attachment from my last vacuum (a Dirt Devil stick vacuum) and just using that on the smaller rugs. I never thought I would have such strong opinions about a vacuum, but here we are.
