I bought this with the hopes that this could out perform or at least hang in there with its Dyson counter parts, it simply can not. It gets clogged all the time, and the way its designed, its extremely tedious to get unclogged, I have dogs, so the culprit is hair, and it doesn't take long to nerf this vacuum in to the ground. I bought a Dyson, and it does not face the same issues.
