“definitely worth considering”
Bought this for my mother. Even though she has had it only about a month, she has already mentioned more than once what a nice vacuum it is. Quiet, powerful, and powermate junior attachment works great too. Another person who used it to help her clean made note how how much she liked it, how nice it was and how well it worked. This compliment coming from mother speaks volumes. You would have to know how much of a critic she is to appreciate this rating. Her last kenmore vacuum lasted over 20 years. Hopefully this will too.
