I bought this vacuum cleaner (having read good reviews) to replace an expensive, wireless one that stopped holding a battery charge immediately after the end of the warranty. This vacuum cleaner is a necessary thing in the presence of a dog. I took into account all the recommendations from the reviews - I put the sock on the drum inside the dust collector (a very useful recommendation), removed the accessory for winding the wire - fortunately, I still had a station for recharging the wireless vacuum cleaner on the wall, and adapted it to store it. Some in the reviews had concerns that fragile plastic - by no means, withstood everything (there was a precedent). I recommend to buy.
