I already have one of these vacuum cleaners. When we needed a second vacuum I bought a cheaper Shark and was very disappointed. When the cat hair blew off me after six months, I couldn't stand it any longer and bought another cirrus. Although a few comments. The small flat tool appears to have been modified. My old one had ridges or little spikes that made it slide easily across the floor. Now it doesn't and sticks to the floor when you try to suck. It's a bit annoying. I also wish a large flat accessory was included, but I can buy one at a vacuum store. Overall a great vacuum cleaner.
