And now I am the owner of a vacuum cleaner, before buying I read reviews, a lot of reviews . and they were very contradictory. So: the vacuum cleaner is big, BUT MANEUVERABLE, its own wire moves, and of course it is heavier than a broom and a bucket with a rag, it's a machine! Its weight does not bother me at all, some write that it is heavy for women, but crawling with a rag is not easy either! I am very, very, very satisfied, and it is not difficult to wash the aquafilter, everything is pulledSee full review
