This is an awesome machine, as a vacuum. It sucks up everything! It has a booster button to suck harder, which is cool. It has a bendable neck between the suction section and the canister to make it easier to turn and reach certain areas. I love the attachment for furniture. It has its own rotating brush to get pet hair. Very cool! Unfortunately, the machine is heavy. It was too heavy for me to do very much at one time bcuz of my bad back. It needs to be lighter.
