I bought this as my old Dyson finally died. After looking around, I decided to go with the Bissell. I was really intrigued with the automatic cord rewind feature. Bought the pet version even though I don't have any pets. The day it came, i assembled it and tried it on a section of the living room and OMG the amount of dirt and debris it picked up was amazing. I vacuumed for five minutes on a section about 2x2 feet and it filled the whole container! I was gobsmacked. Love the foot pedal to turn it on, love the cord rewind, and love how lightweight it felt and how easy it was to maneuver. Best part of it was the price! It was about the same price as the generic cordless I have with double, no, triple the suction power.
