I bought this vacuum aware that the charge on it was not the greatest but bought it anyways seeing that I didn't need it for a very large area. At first running for about 6-7 on a full charge it quickly dwindled to about 3 min of charge and I've had an issue with losing suction a few times (sounds like somewhere around the battery), and now it has essentially stopped working all together. Gave it 2 stars because I was happy with the product while it worked.
