i have loved everything about this vacuum and clean station. the ability to empty the canister without a dust cloud in my home. the way the vacuum comes apart in so many places for cleaning. it was worth the cost until i tried to purchase bags only to find out they are not in stock, there are no places online to buy them, and no places within hundreds of miles of me that carry them. i will state this again, you cannot buy bags for this clean station. so, purchase an overpriced vacuum + clean station if you are happy spending that much for a few months of usage, until you run out of bags that it came with.
