This thing really sucks! By that, I mean it gets up all the fur my Siberian Husky can shed and then some! It’s remarkably quiet and easy to move around. I enjoy the compact style because it makes getting under furniture and around cords a breeze. It’s definitely an upgrade from our previous vacuum. If it can pull up literal pounds of Husky undercoat from our area rugs, it can do anything. Highly recommend.
