Motor is really strong because it’s corded. But that’s why I take down one star. It says lightweight but I still feel it’s heavier than it should be. Moving around with cord and some weights really tiring. It’s not too loud compare to some other cordless ones I had already. Suction is really good on carpet so it pick up quite well on dust and especially my hair around the house. And it’s easy to empty the dust out. That’s important too. Parts that comes with it are convenient to switch for different surface.
