My last vacuum, a Dyson V8 stick was great. It vanished during a recent move and I needed a vacuum asap. It was with some worry I purchased this INSE stick vacuum. No more worries. This easy to use vacuum has the two settings I use most often, floors and carpet. The suction is just fine, and for the first time in weeks I feel that the floors and rugs are clean. Im very happy that I took a chance and purchased this well priced unit with all its attachments. I recommend it to shoppers looking for a new vacuum.
