I am very satisfied with this vacuum cleaner. I like to research anything I'm going to spend my money on, especially if it's over $50. I looked at all the popular brands and vacuums to replace my old (+15 year old) Eureka vacuum. I knew I didn't need a bagless vacuum as I prefer not to dust and such. I also wanted a basic vacuum that was also sealed to keep allergens and dust out of my house. So, after a lot of research and thought, this led me to the Hoover Commercial Vacuum Cleaner. I like the look, the long cord, the ease of assembly and troubleshooting, and the fact that it's actually lighter than my previous vacuum. It does exactly what it was designed to do. No frills or tricks. It also has two seals of approval from the Carpet and Carpet Institute, which other vacuum cleaners do not have according to my research, i.e. tested by a third party. So far I am the happiest with this product. This works on my carpets as well as on parquet. I highly recommend this product and although it is commercial the carpet and floors are still the same for me. I also love that it was put together here in the US as I'm trying to support my compatriots! Hope that helps!
