The new vacuum is beautiful. The colors are vibrant and it is lightweight and easy to handle. Some new features I really like as well. The internal tools that are inside the extension tube are great! It is nice to have them right there instead of having to take them on or off are lose them. I do prefer the trigger start that I have on my other Dyson, only because with this type of vac I use it for certain areas so I don’t have to drag in the dc vac and be troubled with a cord.
