A powerful tool for helping your floors stay clean [Posted on 2007-05-06]
When I saw the price for this vacuum, I was skeptical that it would be good, but was willing to try it. Its powerful suction took me by surprise. In my home, we use it only for dry vacuuming. We vacuum our floors prior to mopping. I have also used the crevice tools to clean drawers, corners, and tough to reach spaces, like the tracks of sliding glass doors or hard to reach crevices of my car's interior. The vacuum is excellent. I highly recommend it. Approximately twice a year, it is necessary to wash the filters. Once the filters are clean, the machine operates like new. I purchased a second set of filters, so that I can use the vacuum right away while the first set of filters is being washed.

The only thing that I would re-design in this machine is the size of the opening into the vacuum "bag". The hose is 'L Shaped' when it enters the canister. This creates a problem if you are vacuuming larger items, like packing peanuts, etc. If such items are picked up by the vacuum, they will get stuck prior to entering the canister/vacuum bag, and will create a blockage inside the hose. You simply have to shut off the vacuum, remove the hose, dislodge the items that are blocking the entry to the canister, re-install the hose and then its up and running with great suction again. In our home we describe this vacuum as The Robot, because it reminds us of R2-D2 from Star Wars.
