This vacuum was a bonus with the washer/dryer we bought at the same time and  I thought I'd give it a try as we had it.  I love it.  I love having no cord to plug/unplug or trip over.  I like that it's lightweight and has a small cleaner head to go under dressers and beds.  It's so easy to use and to empty the canister when it fills up.  Great suction too.
