After I bought it, I read the reviews and I was a little afraid that it would only bring me luck and not work. I received it on time and when I opened it to feel it I suspected the worst as it was...hmm...cheap (haha...which I expected for the price π€·π»ββοΈ). But despite my thoughts, I brought it home and my husband installed it (a breeze). Yes, it squeaks like a puppy stepping on it, but that's to be expected as this is a brand new belt... the squeaking has died down a bit (as it was 6th use today) and it's not that annoying as i was first use was. I won't complain as this was a great purchase and it actually works (the vacuum company wants $25 for ONE belt - hooray! Over my dead body!) Now... fingers crossed we get a lot out of this!
