I don’t see any significant drawbacks, only if someone plans to use it together with bags, then the service will be very expensive. My husband took a vacuum cleaner for cleaning in the house (we plan) and the garage - clusters of bolts and nails whine like seeds, he got tired of shaking them out of him. Has some pros I liked the power, easy mobility and the execution of the case in metal Different cons: The cord does not fold, the filter quickly becomes clogged, if used as a cyclone, there is no power adjustment at all.
