I be so glad I buy the Eureka 4870mz Boss Smart-Vac with the pet paw ! oh my goodness , it perform much better than my previous , much more expensive , vaccum ! it clean so incredibly well - great suction . and the powerpaw and hose be extremely powerful as well ! I have review vaccum for month before pick this one and boy do I ever make the right choice ! it be the same heaviness as any heavy-duty vaccum . I finally make a good-buy !!!
