I am very impressed. After Dyson and Hoover, this is the best of the three cars I've owned. After my 14 x 12 bedroom was vacuumed by a housewife with what she used and I then vacuumed with a vacuum cleaner. This thing removed a lot of unpleasant things from the carpet. (See photos) The house is vacant and for sale so as it was vacuumed twice there were no people or pets in the room. I took this one with me for a final cleaning before closing time. Not only that, it weighs less and is much quieter than others. The long hose is very handy and really pulls pet hair and cat litter out of carpets. It's easy to use even on hard floors thanks to the brush clipping feature, and it seems a lot more powerful than the Hoover React it replaced. It broke after two months and Hoover did not honor the warranty. Was also $50 less than the Hoover. Good product!
