Brilliant little vacuum. This is the third one I’ve owned and find it so easy to use for my hard floors and carpet. If there is one criticism it’s that the handle causes the plastic surround to crack where it meets the body of the hoover and then very difficult to use which is why I replaced it however I do use it 2-3x day due to dog hair and it could be the back and forth motion. However for the price it is worth every penny. It is also very easy to clean by removing and washing the filter. You do need to buy spare filters too while one is drying. I would highly recommend this product. It is also very economical in relation to use of electric.
