Received this vacuum and have been very impressed so far with all of the functions I have tried on it. The step by step instructions on how to put together were simple and easy as well as the instructions on the actual use of the vacuum. I have used the carpet and wood floor feature and have been impressed with the suction power on both. The dust cup is a good size and easy to empty when full, It is also nice that it is a HEPA filter in the vacuum to help trap dust.
