I LOVE this vacuum. I've been a big fan of bissell vacuums for a while, especially the pet vacuums. They are super effective. I already had one and was so excited to get a second to keep on my 2nd floor so I can stop lugging up and down... now I want to buy another one of this model because it's just that good. The controls are super easy to manage, and the lights around the base are a game changer. I had no idea how dirty my floors were until I used that light! It moves really easily from hardwood to dense carpet. I love all of the attachments and the whole thing came together in a minute. Would absolutely buy this vacuum!
