“this vacuum is great for a one floor house with no area rugs”
This vacuum works very good. But it is very heavy so if you want muscles, this is the vacuum for you. The suction is great, but even with the reduced suction button pressed for area rugs, the suction is still too much. So it's great if you don't have small area rugs. It doesn't get close to baseboards either, but all the other advantages out weight these 2 minor inconveniences. The attachment hose takes a little getting used to as it fits so snugly into it's place that it's hard to push back in. But having it is very convenient. The small rotating brush attachment (used for furniture) isn't very good. The rotating brush stops when applied to material, so the rotation of the brush is useless. Better to use the other brush attachment as that works great on furniture. The best thing about this vacuum is that it doesn't use a FILTER!
