I was AMAZED at the pet hair and dust this machine picked up the 1st time I used it and when I used it again 2 days later, it pulled even more! Finally, a machine that cleans my room size rug and goes right to my wood floors and does an even better job than dust mopping! I cleaned my sofas and a chair with the turbo tool and it did a great job. My house feels really clean, I am so pleased. And emptying the dirt container is a breeze!
