I love, love, love this LG Cord Zero Kompressor vacuum. I told my hubby I hated our old vacuum cleaner because it was too heavy -- despite being advertised as lightweight -- and it was a pain dragging the cord around. (Husbands always say vacuuming is the one chore they like to do but then they never do it.) Anyway, to his credit, he researched and found the LG Cord Zero and it is a dream come true. It is intuitively designed so it is easy to use; it is TRULY lightweight, maneuvers easily, has great suction, the charging stand was easy to place, emptying the dirt trap is easy. I just love everything about it. Kudos to the design team. I finally have a vacuum that gets used regularly. I read other reviews where people had maintenance issues but no problems so far with ours. (We have had it for several months now -- maybe longer.)
