Ok so I won this vacuum from bissell i thought it was a scam i never won anything in my life well i have used it everyday for the past week 7 days at 30 mins at a time everyday like clockwork It is pretty close to perfect the power cord is a little short and the suction hose is a foot to short however it makes up for it in power I was shocked when I felt the suction. it rolls very easy. It is a joy to use. super quiet I spent my time picking up light sand and dust as I live in Arizona also I have 4 guinea pigs so it picked up piggy waste sawdust and a few pellets of food I would highly recommend this product from bissell in fact I told 6 of my neighbors and 2 of them plan on buying one because they were amazed by the power
