First let me say that I in a clear disclosure got the product for free in exchange for writing the review. With that said. This vacuum is by far the best one that I have ever owned. I am a long haired chi, two cat, and reptile owner. I have three teens at home still. The messes in our home are horrid. This auto senses the depth needed on our hardwood floors straight over to our carpets. It has wonderful sucking power. Glides across all surfaces. I love the rose gold accent pieces and is small and lightweight. It comes apart for Easy use on stairs or tight spaces. The accessories work great and the added flashlight helps to not pick up larger pieces. I will stick with Bissell from now on. This is a ten star product.
