I just got my zing and I absolutely love it. It cleans better than any other I have owned. I have dogs and lots of fur balls and they're gone in an instant. The suction is really great I like the fact that you can adjust the power. The only thing I didn't like was the weight of the wand I have arthritis in my hands and it was heavy no worry the wand from my old vacuum worked fine. So never throw anything out from your old vacuums as you may be able to recycle them to your new one. Going to buy my sister one of these. Thanks Bissell
