I actually enjoy vacuuming with this vacuum, because it does a superb job!  Sometimes with my previous vacuums I felt I was just going through the motions.  I have a dog and cat and I cannot believe how it picks up hair and dander!  Plus, we live on a farm and always have lots of dust and dirt to contend with.  My favorite vacuum EVER--and I have been vacuuming for over 50 years!
