The vacuum exceeds my expectations. I vacuumed first using my corded vacuum cleaner and then performed a second pass with the Lupe. The Lupe picked up additional items that my corded vacuum missed. I like that it easily transitions from carpet to tile areas without having to do anything to the setup. Assembly is really easy and I like the idea of being able to obtain spare parts (if required). The only cons I can think of is that it would have been good to have a power button at the end of the handle. Another is that the hose for accessories is not long enough. Overall a great unit!
