Hi ! I purchased my Bissell Zing in June as we just purchased a new berber rug. After researching how to clean a berber rug, I realized you can't use a rotating brush on it or it will snag the loops. The zing does not have a rotating brush. I was worried it would not have enough suction to clean it, as it is in our condo at the beach and sees a lot of sand. But, I tried it and for a small vacuum, it sure has great suction!! I am very happy with it and would highly recommend it ! It is a canister and very lightweight, which is a plus!! love it!!
