wanted to buy a really good vacuum cleaner, so the choice fell on the Karcher brand. It vacuums really well (compared to conventional vacuum cleaners such as LG, Samsung, etc.), but for us the most powerful blowing became a significant drawback (if you are going to use this vacuum cleaner to clean the room after repair, be prepared for this !) Its pros: vacuums everything well (it gnaws cat hair from rugs and a sofa for 5+) Has cons: very powerful blowing, noisy, bulky, the cord does not retract inside
