Bought this vacuum 2 weeks ago to accompany my Shark Rocket stick.   This vacuum provides much more suction than my previously owned Dyson and it is so much lighter.  I have used it twice since receiving it and found it easy to assemble; however, the lift away canister is a bit cumberson to pack around because it takes two hands to use it on draperies and blinds.  Love the fact that it corners easily and has a high capacity container for dust and particles picked up.
