Electrolux Canister Vacuum Cleaner (EL6988) —

I exchanged my top of the line Kenmore canister in this weekend for this Electrolux. What a huge improvement! This vacuum is incredibly lightweight and quiet yet very powerful. It has the most fantastic attatchments. The hardwood floor attatchment isn't even described in the details and in my opinion, (and to my pleasant surprise) it is the best feature. I have a wood floors mostly with a carpeted den. I have 3 pets with lots of fur. I have tried the dyson animal, and I have had several Kenmore canisters in the past. This vacuum is superior to them all. The online price was nearly $70.00 less than in store. Make sure to print out the online price if purchasing in store.
