This vacuum cleaner does everything it promises, I'm very satisfied. I ordered a cheaper model first and it was ok for the price but not as quiet as I wanted so I sent it back and got this one, for the extra $64 it's worth it, much more powerful and so is the docking station itself. Works great on my bare floors and light carpets. I wanted this to be primarily for dog hair so I specifically ordered it without the roller brush as I've heard it takes a lot of detangling. We have 2 small dogs but one is long haired and sheds a lot all year round. An air shaft in the kitchen floor blows hair up and lands everywhere. This little bot takes care of the hair, no more hassle with stove and counters or big fluff in the corners, it has a big trash can so it stays still for a while without emptying it. Great for the price.
