I enjoyed trying this vacuum cleaner, especially with the swiveling nozzle. Unfortunately I wasn't impressed. When I first used it I found the suction power to be great and not bad. I mean I vacuumed the living room, dining room and kitchen. Then I used it a second time for the hallway and after 5 minutes it just cut off on me and I got hot. I tried using it a third time for a hall closet and after 5 minutes it shut off and was very hot. I've already reclaimed it as it's not worth it. There is no reason to heat up after 5 minutes. (Yes, the vacuum cleaner was clean)
