I was very impressed with this vacuum. I love how lightweight and easy it is to use. The head moves and turns very easily so that you can vacuum under and around furniture with ease. It is much quieter than any vacuum that I have used in the past and does a great job at picking up debris. It works well on plus carpet as well as my tile floor, and it is also easy to assemble and disassemble to use on stairs or in small areas for cleaning. Shark has exceeded my expectations with this one!
