Get's the job done and what a price. Vacuum seems brand new and no mechanical or physical defaults. Add free shipping from Amazon and you can't go wrong.

I sweat the thing seemed new when I got it. A bird, a cat, a dusty house, a mechanic roommate - all of their mess gets swept up by this without a problem. The power nozzle thing is a little annoying to attach because you have to put these cord holders along the plastic tubing, keeping me from really using the attachments as much as I should, and one of the attachments wasn't in the box (didn't really bother me because it basically did the same thing as the power nozzle), but this is really a great vacuum. I had horrible allergy problems when I got it, but now I can breathe again! I didn't realize just how bad my old vacuum was until I got this.

I find the quality of this product to be extremely deficient. Yes, it has minimally adequate suction power, but what good is suction if the hose is easily torn apart? Starting with the telescopic wand that connects the floor power sweeper, watch out that the wand doesn't fall over and hit you, because it doesn't even snap into the upright position. The hose, which is cheap plastic, has an obvious low life-span; like, one accidental twist or step will put it in BER condition. The power-mate power cord that connects to the main unit is unwieldly, and should have been designed like most power-mates, with a fixed power-cord bracket that plugs in to the telescopic wand in a male-to-female fashion. So what do you do with the cord if you want to switch from using the floor power-mate to just using the wand portion with suction. You have to manually take it carefully apart; not an easy operation on this unit to begin with. In this day and age, only the Chinese could think of putting something like this on the market. If I had bought this at a bricks & mortar store, I would be returning it.Dirt Devil Refurbished R082550 Breeze Vision Bagless Canister with Power Pak Nozzle Extremely disappointed.

This is a great vacuum for hardwood floors with a plethora of dog and cat hair. Plenty of suction, light, well balanced (doesn't fall over when turning awkward corners.) Doesn't spew out dust into the air like my previous, more expensive vacuum. The only flaw is that the rug nozzle won't stay on. I actually bought two because of the inexpensive factor and they both have the same problem. Customer service had no solutions except send it back to Amazon. I like it too much to do that, so I will live with a duct tape fix until I figure out a permanent solution. Anyone know if the hepa filter should be washed occasionally?

the vac works good on hardwood, but the tubes come apart from the floor piece. The connector locks are so weak, the tubes just come apart. It's worse with the rug attachment because the rug attachment is heavy, so as soon as it vac's the rug, the tube comes off of it. I wouldn't buy this again.
