I wanted to use it a bit before I wrote this review. The cleaner is awesome. We have 2 dogs and if you're an owner you know how they can shed and especially when they're molting. It was finally a breeze and not a dreaded chore to clean up after them. It has incredible suction. The clear front allows you to see that it's really cleaning. Compared to other models that it's not visible. It's also designed to pick up around corners. Which meant less moving of furniture. Our dogs are family but the maintenance cause be overwhelming. Well not anymore! This provides a nice deep clean with little dry time. It doesn't soak the carpet and you have to avoid the room all day. It's worth the investment.
