I bought this about a month ago. Its a great vacuum although it does have a few design flaws. the hose is a bit to long when you use attachments if you are not careful the hose tends to crimp if you don't watch which way you turn .Also it rolls really well until it rolls on the cord then it stops and you have to pick it up over the cord. I do like the fact that my attachments from my previous Shark fit the new one.  My old one had a light on the handle this one does not so you can't see under dressers or other furniture the powerhead does not fit under.
