Exceeds my expectations by far! Wanted to replace our bulky Miele now that our shedding dog had passed and we became empty nesters (no longer have chaos level vacuum needs) with something compact and cordless. This thing is amazing! A gorgeous pearl white, holds its charge much longer than needed, maneuvers into tight corners with ease and picks up everything I've tried. Love that you get a bonus handheld as part of it also. My only very minor beef is the handheld could use an extension to get deeper into really tight spaces.
