So far so good - I had read some of the comments about hard surface cleaning and was concerned, but it's been working well - I leave the beater brush "off" on my hard floors and it seems to work pretty well. Not so great on the edges though - it just doesn't pick up along the edges on hard surfaces. Love the light feel of the vacuum, and the maneuverability. The wand is a little weird to get out, and I'm not yet used to the feel of it, but it works well. Easy to empty the bin; vacuums our carpet well - we have both low carpets to a bit more plush. Great on rugs. NOT a fan of the Febreze filter - fills my house with a smell I don't like, others might like that fine.
