This vacuum has the best suction. I went from carpet to hardwood floor with no problem. The hose and attachments worked great to clean the pet hair from the furniture. I like how I have the option to have the brushes on or off depending on the type of floor I'm sweeping. I have owned many vacuums in my life and I can honestly say this is the best vacuum ever. The suction power is awesome. You will not be disappointed if you owned this vacuum.
