I bought this vacuum 2 weeks ago. In summary:
1. Easy to set up, took 30 mins
2. Very light, so if you are old and worried about holding it, it is easy to use 
3. Has good joints, which makes good to difficult areas to reach
4. Has strong suction
5 comes with many tools that you can use
6. Has auto emptying feature, which is really nice 
7. My wife likes it and my wife tends not to like things I buy much !
