My old clunky car vacuum died so I needed a replacement and this model passed my test. It arrived neatly packaged with all parts intact along with basic instructions. Comes with a small storage bag for just one glove box storage. The folding handle is a great idea, it's smaller for storage but opens out into a sturdy handle. The long extension is just the right size to fit between the seats in my car. The battery was fully charged within 4 hours. The performance/suction power is good for such a small device. It opens easily to eject dirt and the filter is washable. I like that a second filter is included for later use. Having vacuumed two machines I feel I got a good quality item at a reasonable price. I can update this first impression after a few months of use. Very satisfied.
